Script description

Pixel Pet

A tiny cat that lives on your clock. It has no purpose at all.

What it does

  • Wanders: walks to a random spot, stands for a few seconds, blinks, then walks on.
  • Naps: about one time in five it lies down for a short nap instead.
  • SELECT pets it: it jumps with its eyes shut, a heart floats up, and the pet count shows on the other side of the panel. The count is saved and survives a restart.
  • Sleeps at night: from 22:00 to 06:00 it lies down, dimmed, under a few stars with z's drifting up.
  • SELECT at night: wakes it for four seconds with a red "!" beside it. Then it goes back to sleep. That does not count as a pet.

Left and right still switch apps as usual.

Setup

  • Pet color: orange by default.
  • Sleeps at night: on by default. Switch it off for a cat that never sleeps.

No network, no account, no data. It uses the clock's time only to know when to sleep.

Panels: 32x8
