About Bit Beast
Bit World is a digital realm full of digital eggs. No one knows how this world came into existence, or where the eggs come from.
However, what we do know is that using an Android device, coupled with this software, you can acquire one of these eggs.
Once on your device, the egg will begin to mature and eventually hatch into a mysterious creature, known as a Bit Beast!
Raise your Bit Beast well, pit it against other Bit Beasts in battle, and become an expert Bit Beast handler!
Bit Beast is a virtual pet inspired by the great toys from the 90s, such as Tamagotchi and Digimon. You raise and care for your Bit Beast by feeding him, cleaning him, giving him medicine when he is sick, playing with him, and so on.
As your Bit Beast grows up, he will evolve into different forms. There are several different evolutionary branches that your Bit Beast can move along, and what he becomes is dependent on how well you raise him. Pay special attention to what kind of food you feed him!
To interact with your Bit Beast, simply run the app. It runs like any other standard app and can be shut down whenever you want. When you next run the app, it calculates what happened during the intervening period and updates accordingly.
At any time, you can pause your Bit Beast, and nothing will happen to him until you unpause him later. You can also configure his bedtime so that he can be awake whenever you are!
Bit Beast makes use of several of Android's fun hardware features, if they are available. If a given feature is not available on your device, don't panic! You can still use the app! The feature will simply not be available when you play.
Here is how Bit Beast puts some of these features to good use:
- You can pet your Bit Beast (and interact with the rest of the UI) using the touchscreen if you have one. If not, you can use your trackball or dpad to navigate.
- You can tap the screen when on the main view to activate speech recognition, and give your Bit Beast commands, praise, or scolding.
- You can shake your device to earn bits (this one uses the accelerometer).
- You can turn on your GPS and earn bits based on either speed or distance traveled.
- You can connect to another Bit Beast on another device via Bluetooth and battle them!

Here is an explanation of the permissions required to install the app, and why they are needed: http://cheeseandbacon.org/bit-beast/permissions.txt
While the app is already complete, there will almost certainly be updated versions released in the future to fix bugs, tweak numbers, etc. If you find a bug, or something that just doesn't seem right, please let us know! You can contact us via email, or head over to the forums, using the links found below.
After you have played with your Bit Beast for a bit (pun intended!), please rate it on Google Play to let us, and everyone else, know what you think of the game!

When my pet sleeps it still poops and gets hungry and thirsty. I'm just mentioning this since most classic virtual pets don't do that unless it was intentional .

The editors always claim to be updating the game but nothing has been done in years. Its very basic, and you have no goals to work up to. Sadly enough it was a waste of my money and time. I wouldnt advise purchasing this game, your better off seeking out a tamogotchi.

I wish you could note which foods it likes so far found a few that makes it happy, also online battles would be cool... Can't wait to see it evolve, I wonder how many levels there are looking forward to updates!

i am so happy to FINALLY see a game like this! way fun and stress free. the little guy is totally cute :) could benefit from future updates definitely. notifications were a great idea. maybe a slightly different cpu on battle system though? none of my friends have this yet and my shadow gets boring :(

This game is great! It's been hard to find what i was looking for but this fits. It's got plenty of options also to keep you entertained and keep coming back to check on the little guy! Job well done.

Love the games and options but have a few suggestions 1. Let me change the name of my bit beast (voice recognition doesn't recognize the name I already set) 2. Have the bit beast actually viewable in the play and training screens 3. Option to turn off sounds

Found this via 'Because We May'. Amazing little Tamagotchi-esque game. The use of GPS, voice recognition & the accelerometer really set it apart from similar apps - and such a tiny file size! My only suggestions would be to add tilt controls for the bat & ball mini games, and notifications and/or a widget, so we know when the little guy/gal needs something :)

my phone is now my pet only thing I don't like is I picked a name so random my voice recognition contd regognise it and I can't change it now but other than that its perfect just what I wanted and so much room for expansion like notifications and live wallpaper and a smaller widget new games and training methods more food. im.really excited to see how this develops.

I've always wanted something like this on my phone, and now it's here. What a great throwback to the Digimon days. It's still rather early to pass judgment on a game like this, but it seems rather solid so far.

All the other pet apps aren't very appealing for me, but this one is! Bluetooth battles and a few minigames make a fine time waster.

Exactly what I was looking for. Can't wait to see further evolutions. This game needs more attention.

This app is amazing, way better than any tamagotchi type thing I have ever used, the Playing is very fun mini games that can benefit from you having an active life or job... Overall way worth it

Ugly, awkward to play and not much fun. The bricks game can't be won without losing lives...

I love this game! Game needs to be easier to find and it would be nice if shadowbox changed to a different bit beast occasionally :

Obviously a new app, which is fine. Great implementation of a classic idea. Would be nice to have notifications, ie sick, hungry, etc. Customizable would be awesome...

But it gets boring pretty fast. I used to LOVE my tamagatchi's, so this seemed right up my alley. And it is a very great rendition! It just doesn't offer much more right now. Final word: Really great app! Just needs to offer more to keep interested.

I like that i can shake or go for a walk to earn bits. And i love that i can talk to it! Great game.

This is adorable with lots of things to do. Will give it 5 stars when I can battle over the net with random aponents, and would love to see an option to use my own backgrounds.

Anything that involves water (clean / bathe) seems to cause graphics issues on my Galaxy S3. Was great on my S2!

I like it so far. It would be nice to get some notifications if anything happens with the pet. Also, it looks like this game hasn't been worked on for a while...Have you forgotten it? It looks like it could be so much more. Maybe some more games? Like, your pet jumping hurdles? Or playing catch? Some 8-bit music? The game does get a little boring, since there isn't much to do. I hope you guys come back to this soon... :(

I don't quite understand the significance of weight. Does it play a role in its evolution? Also maintaining the right temperature can be frustrating. Accidently forget about the heater for a couple hours and he's burning up. Same with the AC.

This brings back so many memories from my childhood. I used to spend so much time taking care of little guys like these. Keep up the good work, I'm definitely a fan.

Feels just like a tamagotchi used to. I loved the pause feature because my job is too active to take care of this little guy. Otherwise it did exactly what I wanted it to.

Fantastic little cyber pet! Just like the ones of old! An in game volume function would make this even better (hense 4 stars rather than 5)

Definitely interesting, but it needs some more tweaks and features to really hold ones attention.

It does what it does adequately - it just doesn't do much. You'll see all it has to offer very quickly, after which there's little incentive to keep playing.

When my pet sleeps it still poops and gets hungry and thirsty. I'm just mentioning this since most classic virtual pets don't do that unless it was intentional. Also is this final version? When will there be a new update? How do I get different monsters? Please reply.
