McFloofy

Features
Read full description

McFloofy is a calm, cuddly virtual pet for iPhone and iPad. Touch the screen to pet a fluffy creature whose fur ruffles under your finger, whose mood lifts the more you visit, and whose purr you can actually hear. No goals, no timers, no failure states — just a warm little companion to keep you company. — FOUR LOOKS — Floofy: a soft pink puff of procedurally rendered fur. Furby: a teal-and-purple critter with thicker, brighter strands. EMO: a sleek robot pal in cool blues and indigos. Hair: a field of interactive strands you can comb, ruffle, and blow with the wind. — REAL FUR PHYSICS — Every strand is simulated. Touch the screen and the fur parts around your finger, springs back when you lift, and ripples outward in soft waves. Pinch to zoom in on individual hairs. — PURR ENGINE — Mood-driven audio. The happier your pet, the warmer the purr. Pet it long enough and it'll drift off to sleep in a cozy corner with a little blanket. — MOODS & CARE — Your pet's mood is shaped by how often and how gently you visit. Skip a few days and it'll be sleepy; come back regularly and it'll be bright and bouncy. Mood drives fur color, eye expression, and purr tone. — HAIR MODE — A quiet, meditative mode. Run your finger through a field of long hair, switch between styles, and turn up the wind for a breezy effect. Surprisingly relaxing. — SLEEPY CORNER — When mood drops or after long affection sessions, your pet curls up in a cozy corner with a soft blanket. Tap to wake — gently. — BUILT FOR APPLE — Native SwiftUI. All rendering is procedural — no image assets, no downloads. Works offline. Optimized for iPhone and iPad in any orientation. Haptic feedback on supported devices. No ads. No tracking. No accounts. No in-app purchases. Just a fluffy friend.

PocketFidget puts a small collection of satisfying, tactile interactions in your pocket. Choose your fidget: • Tap a responsive button and keep a local tap count. • Flip a switch, glide a slider, turn a detent dial, or drag across a fine-grain texture on the Board. • Drag and flick the wheel, then let it coast naturally. Optional haptics and short synthesized sounds give each interaction physical character on a compatible iPhone.
