WIND CLOCK EGGS ALIVE

hold to wind!

Pick an egg, then HOLD the WIND key (or the crank) to wind it. At 60 ticks it hatches. Each egg has a secret winding temperament.

Select the pulsing egg, then wind it alive.

60-SECOND HABITAT LOOP

:00 → :60 ∞
— no creature yet —
wind an egg to hatch your first beast

The habitat loops every 60 seconds. Hands, legs & glow all sync to the wall-clock second. A new wild egg auto-lays every hour — like clockwork.

CROSSBREED HISTORY ECHOES

pick 2 → breed

Tap two creatures to select them as parents, then CROSSBREED. The child inherits parts from both; the parents linger as glowing echo ghosts behind it.

MIDNIGHT EVOLUTIONS

🌙 00:00 only

At midnight (00:00) the lanterns turn violet-black and one creature may EVOLVE into a mint — a crowned, one-of-one edition stamped with the date. Missed midnight? Flip the time-machine switch. No judgment.
