Information about P.E.T.S. Videogame Demo
P.E.T.S - An MMU Group Project for 'Advanced Computer Games Design'
P.E.T.S (Preservation of Endangered and Threatened Species) is an animal care job simulator,
but instead of a zoo sim with customers, you're behind the scenes taking care of a variety of animals
from penguins to pandas and even a South American Coati (based on a real Coati called Casper, pictured below).
This vertical slice demo was created by 7 students from MMU during the final semester of 2022/23, for their 'Advanced Computer Games Design' module.
The module is set around a games studio called 'Cheddar Cat' and emulates a 20 hour per week parttime job.

Disclaimer: P.E.T.S was a group project by several MMU students, for one of their final modules. 'Moop' is a passion project by the Project Manager of 'P.E.T.S' and added this information webpage so that people have more context about the game during a games showcase. P.E.T.S isn't a Moop game, but I launched the Moop website a few days prior to the PETS game showcase at Pixel Bar, Manchester so we could give more information to those who request it.
