Dance for your owner's attention lest you be forgotten, and your device's battery drained. In a hyper-consumerist society, being a virtual pet is a lot of work. Survive for as long as you can in this game of chaotic subservience. Or scour your surroundings in hope of a secret way out of all this.

Created for Team Dogpit's Virtual Pet Jam.
