Bubby

A tiny pixel pet that lives in your browser toolbar. Feed it, play with it, and watch it grow.

Bubby is a tiny pixel virtual pet for your browser toolbar. It starts as a seed and grows, in real time, into a Bulb, a Bud, a Blossom and at last a wise old Elder. Its face on the toolbar shows how it feels, and a small badge tells you when it needs something. Click it, and a pocket-sized toy opens with Bubby living on its screen. Take care of it • Feed it meals and snacks, play games, clean up after it, give medicine when it's sick, and turn off the lights at bedtime. • Scold its tantrums so it grows up well behaved. • How you raise it decides who it becomes: a Radiant Blossom, a Daisy Blossom or a Thistle. It lives while you're away • Bubby keeps going even when the browser is closed. When you come back, a short card tells you what happened. • When it really needs you, a notification has a button that fixes it on the spot, like "Feed a meal" or "Clean up". Calm, not naggy • Chill pace (the default): one life is about 10 days; a check-in in the morning and the evening is enough. • Classic pace: about 4 days, for more of a challenge. Quick pace: a whole life in about 20 minutes while the popup is open. • Bubby sleeps during the bedtime you choose and stays quiet at night. • At most 6 care reminders a day, never two within 40 minutes, and you can turn them off. Two minigames • Seed catch: catch falling seeds for 20 seconds. Gold seeds are worth 3, pebbles cost 2. • Which way?: guess which way Bubby will look. Private • No account, no ads, no tracking. Your pet is saved only in your browser, and Bubby sends nothing over the internet. Tip: pin Bubby to your toolbar (puzzle-piece icon → pin) so its face is always in view. Alt+Shift+B opens it from any tab.
