Inspiration
We wanted to create something absurd, fun, and totally unnecessary — in the best possible way. So we thought: what if you could summon cursed little AI pets to haunt your Reddit flair or digital life? And thus, the Cursed Pet Generator was born. It’s weird. It’s wonderful. It’s chaotic.
What it does
Generates random AI-generated pet companions with bizarre names, unsettling traits, and a flair of cursed charm.
Each pet comes with:
- A randomly assigned species (real or made-up)
- A twisted backstory or power
- An option to save or "banish" it
- A new pet every click! ## How we built it
- Reddit Devvit integration (for flair use and potential expansion)
- Bolt.new for fast prototyping
- OpenAI + randomness logic for generation
- Hosted on Netlify
- Designed to be silly, simple, and meme-friendly 💀
Challenges we ran into
- Finding the right balance of cursed vs cute
- Generating unique pets without repeating outputs
- Learning Devvit structure quickly within time limits ## Accomplishments that we're proud of
What we learned
