Classic LCD rhythm, rebuilt for a watch
Move the fox's basket between four positions, catch the eggs, protect three lives, and chase a new high score as the pace increases.
Original nostalgia
The game borrows the immediate rhythm and four-position logic people remember from pocket LCD toys, but its world is original: a fox protagonist, new pixel art, a new interface, and mechanics tuned for Garmin hardware.
Mechanics that reveal themselves
The first seconds are deliberately readable. Then the interval between moves shrinks, lower eggs follow a small arc instead of a straight line, and a second egg can enter play after the first five catches. The game becomes harder without adding rules the player has to study.
One device. Three moments.
Designed for two kinds of display
AMOLED rewards color; transflective MIP screens reward contrast. The same scene had to survive both. We enlarged critical outlines, darkened spent lives, removed decorative trajectory lines, and tested the result on a fēnix 7X Pro Solar and a vívoactive 6.
Watch-native interaction
Five physical buttons are enough for the complete game: four basket positions and a dedicated pause/menu action. Touch works on compatible models, the Light button remains a system control, and the help screen explains everything without sending the player to a manual.
Built and shipped
Written in Monkey C for Garmin Connect IQ and published to the store. The game runs offline, stores the best score locally, and ships as 59 device-specific variants for round Garmin watches from the fēnix 6 Pro generation onwards.
