## Description

VirtualHamster is a cozy pixel‑art virtual pet game where you care for your own tiny hamster in real time. Feed it, clean its cage, reduce stress, and keep it alive as long as you can. Relaxing, cute, and surprisingly challenging.

Gameplay Features

Free vs Full Version — Free includes one hamster with random properties and a 10-minute session limit; full version unlocks unlimited play with two hamsters and full customisation (name, color, personality)
Real-Time Pet Stats — Hunger, thirst, energy, stress, sickness, and age change continuously — requires active management
Interactive Gameplay — Tap to feed, tap to water, drag the food bowl to reposition it, double-tap poop to clean it up, turn lights on/off, and pet hamsters to reduce stress
Multiple Animations — Walking, running, sleeping, stressed, full, starving, and dead states with smooth 2-frame animation cycles
Pixel-Art Procedural Graphics — All visuals (cage, hamsters, objects, UI) are drawn procedurally — zero image files, resolution-independent
Persistent Game State — Hamster data and settings saved locally; resume your game anytime
In-App Purchase — One-time non-consumable purchase to unlock the full version with offline verification
