Squishpets
A Tamagotchi in your browser
A Tamagotchi-style Chrome extension gives you a pet to feed, play with and level up, without carrying a keychain. Some copy the classic hunger and happiness meters; others, like Squishpets, put the pet on the web pages you visit so it lives alongside you instead of in a tiny screen.
What made the Tamagotchi so sticky
Bandai's Tamagotchi arrived in 1996 and became a craze because it asked for a little care, often. Feed it, play with it, clean up after it, and it grew. Forget it, and you felt guilty. That loop of small, frequent attention is exactly what makes virtual pets fun.
How browser pets keep the good parts
- Feeding. In Squishpets you toss treats from a little bubble at the edge of the page. Each pet has favourites, and some foods it flatly refuses.
- Growing up. Pets earn experience for time spent together, ads eaten, naps and every throw and pat. Twenty levels unlock tricks like a backflip and things to wear, from a bow to a halo.
- A little diary. The popup keeps a record of your pet's day: ads eaten, treats, naps and games.

Add to Chrome, it’s freeAnd skips the bad ones
No pet dies because you were busy. Squishpets pets fall asleep when you leave them and say hello when you come back. There's no beeping and no guilt, just a companion that's happy to see you.
A pet that lives on the page
The big difference from a keychain toy is where the pet lives. Instead of a tiny screen, it walks across the website you're reading: climbing pictures, napping on long articles, chewing through the ads. Bring a second or third pet and they greet each other, play tag and have a cartoon play-fight in a dust cloud.
