Dead Pets is a feminist, management-lite, minigame-heavy, slice-of-life, narrative game; about music, friendship, and maturing. Playing as Gordy, you’ll go to band practice, manage Gordy’s finances, her wellbeing, and try to find enough time and money to cover… well, everything.
Gordy’s life is a mess. Decide where Gordy’s priorities lie to shape the future of the band. With different endings, you’ll have the chance to help Gordy grow in a ton of different ways.
Long-term friendships can be messy, especially when everyone grows up at their own pace. Can you stop a job, a relationship or a lifestyle from hurting the band?
On top of everything else, the band’s first taste of success comes at the cost of Gordy’s mental health and physical wellbeing. Just how much is she willing to sacrifice for fame? Or for justice?
From the creators of Welcome to Elk, dive into the demon world of New Void City, and give your childhood dreams one last chance.
