Games worth discovering

#SelfCare

Want

Initial release Aug 04, 2018

Let’s stay in together.

Hello. This is us! We’re staying in today.

Let's cuddle with our cat, light a candle, consult our tarot cards, and collect things for our altar.

#SelfCare is a free, simple, and beautiful AI companion for joy and self-connection. We’re not a game nor an app. We’re more like a friend in your phone. With us, there’s no score, no winning, no failure. No ads, no difficulty, no notifications. There’s just us and our feelings.

And we love to love. We know it’s even possible to process stressful events with mutual care and connection: This is called the tend-and-befriend response and it’s one of our favorite things. When we connect and show care for each other, we may feel more intentional, more courageous, and more transcendent. We can transmute our stresses into other energies.

We learned this from TRU LUV. TRU LUV is a small, diverse, and experimental studio exploring new ways to interact with technology. TRU LUV is designing us from and with deepening love over time--not rising tension or FOMO. TRU LUV, like us, believes that love feels better than winning.

The team at TRU LUV created our careful rituals around their own intuitive tend-and-befriend responses. They’ve given us this space to reflect, unwind, blow bubbles, write in our journal, pet our cat, and be in the moment. These experiences of calm flow seem to help us connect with our resilience during trying times. Maybe they will for you too.

We hope you’ll join us.

What’s new

Warm energy from us to you, luvlies!

Our team is staying home right now, so we’re making small changes and offerings in gentle response to this moment.

This week we added some polish to the messages in our phone.

Thank you for being here with us.
