Fixed

• Fixed Windows span/multi-monitor mode when monitors have different resolutions, taskbar bottoms, or DPI scaling.
• Split the Windows overlay into per-monitor transparent strips while preserving one shared horizontal walking scene.
• Made local Windows builds per-monitor DPI aware and scaled each monitor segment from a 96 DPI logical canvas to that monitor's DPI.
• Fixed click, hover-name, wheel, forage, and reaction rendering to use the per-monitor segment offset.

Improved

• Refreshes selected accepted assets for budgerigar, lovebird, quokka, Roborovski hamster, Ragdoll, Scottish Fold, and Toy Poodle.
• Keeps the existing green parrotlet and adds the blue-green parrotlet as a separate selectable variant.
• Renames the previous albino_chipmunk runtime entry to black-eyed white chipmunk, and adds a separate true albino chipmunk.
• Corrects leopard gecko turn-frame sizing in the runtime renderer without replacing the accepted source sheet.

Validation

• Verified on a three-display Windows setup including a secondary monitor at 150% scaling before this animal-roster merge.
• Local release-prep validation covered import regeneration, Pages verification, motion validation, Go tests, Go vet, macOS ZIP builds, Windows cross-builds, and JP/EN Pages smoke checks.

Pages Roadmap

The GitHub Pages upcoming section remains explicit about the next lanes: the remaining Pages candidates, the white lionhead-pattern rabbit, and the special low-motion shoebill.

v0.2.5

AnimalsDesktop v0.2.5

This preview hotfix keeps the v0.2.4 Windows/Mac animal roster and fixes Windows mixed-DPI multi-monitor overlay behavior.

Downloads

• AnimalsDesktop-windows-amd64.zip for Windows 10/11 x64
• AnimalsDesktop-windows-386.zip for Windows 10/11 x86
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-arm64.zip for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 12+
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-amd64.zip for Intel Macs on macOS 12+
• SHA256SUMS.txt for package verification

What's Fixed

• Fixed Windows span/multi-monitor mode when monitors have different resolutions, taskbar bottoms, or DPI scaling.
• Split the Windows overlay into per-monitor transparent strips while preserving one shared horizontal walking scene.
• Made local Windows builds per-monitor DPI aware and scaled each monitor segment from a 96 DPI logical canvas to that monitor's DPI.
• Fixed click, hover-name, wheel, forage, and reaction rendering to use the per-monitor segment offset.

Validation

• Verified on a three-display Windows setup including a secondary monitor at 150% scaling.
• Captured DPI-aware screenshots showing animals rendered on all displays with the expected apparent size.
• Added regression tests for mixed-height monitor placement, high-DPI segment height, high-DPI canvas scaling, and reaction rendering inside segmented overlays.

Notes

• This is still a preview release.
• The selectable animal set remains the same thirty-five animals as v0.2.4.
• Extra props such as trees, seeds, food, and other foraging items remain out of scope for this preview.

v0.2.4

AnimalsDesktop v0.2.4

This preview release expands the selectable runtime roster from sixteen to thirty-five animals on Windows and macOS.

Downloads

• AnimalsDesktop-windows-amd64.zip for Windows 10/11 x64
• AnimalsDesktop-windows-386.zip for Windows 10/11 x86
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-arm64.zip for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 12+
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-amd64.zip for Intel Macs on macOS 12+
• SHA256SUMS.txt for package verification

What's Changed

• Added nineteen selectable animals: striped chipmunk, leopard gecko, blue White's tree frog, budgerigar, cockatiel, Java sparrow, parrotlet, lovebird, ragdoll, Scottish Fold, French Bulldog, Maine Coon, domestic shorthair calico, British Shorthair, Toy Poodle, Munchkin, Roborovski hamster, Russian smoke white guinea pig, and quokka.
• Promoted all nineteen into the Windows and macOS runtime selection lists and settings coverage.
• Updated GitHub Pages to show the current thirty-five-animal roster and the remaining planned silhouettes.
• Documented upcoming lanes on Pages: the remaining GitHub Pages candidates, a white lionhead-pattern rabbit, and a special low-motion shoebill.
• Repaired pre-release visual issues for the leopard gecko middle-turn scale and domestic shorthair contact baseline.

Preview Scope

This remains a preview release. Each newly promoted animal has one accepted 62-frame source set and is imported into the runtime sprite sheets for behavior and settings QA. The full-content gate still expects expanded motion coverage before a stable/final release.

Extra props such as trees, seeds, food, and other foraging items are still out of scope for this preview.

v0.2.3

AnimalsDesktop v0.2.3

This hotfix keeps the v0.2.2 Windows/Mac preview scope and fixes a Windows settings UI clipping issue.

Downloads

• AnimalsDesktop-windows-amd64.zip for Windows 10/11 x64
• AnimalsDesktop-windows-386.zip for Windows 10/11 x86
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-arm64.zip for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 12+
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-amd64.zip for Intel Macs on macOS 12+
• SHA256SUMS.txt for package verification

What's Fixed

• Fixed the Windows name-change dialog so the Save and Cancel buttons stay fully visible.
• Added regression tests for the rename dialog client-area layout.
• Added a settings footer layout guard so Language, Reset, and Close remain inside the settings window.

Notes

• This is still a preview release.
• The selectable animal set remains the same sixteen animals as v0.2.2.
• v0.2.3 is a UI hotfix; it does not promote new runtime animals.

v0.2.2

AnimalsDesktop v0.2.2

This preview release keeps the current sixteen-animal runtime set and focuses on Mac parity and release-page clarity.

Downloads

• AnimalsDesktop-windows-amd64.zip for Windows 10/11 x64

What's Changed

• Added Mac animal selection for the same sixteen release-scoped animals as Windows.
• Added Mac per-pet size controls with 70-120% steps.
• Added Mac visible-count, language, and display-selection settings.
• Added a Windows tray Language menu and kept the setting label as Language in both Japanese and English UI.
• Updated GitHub Pages with JP/EN switching, a compact current-animal grid, Coming Soon silhouettes, and version-change copy.
• Added stricter Mac regression tests for exact animal count, all selectable animals, and size behavior.

Animal Scope

Notes

• This is still a preview release.
• v0.2.1 remains the Windows trust-hardening release.
• v0.2.2 adds Mac parity and public-page clarity before the next animal-asset wave.

v0.2.1

AnimalsDesktop v0.2.1

Date: 2026-06-27

This release keeps the current main-line AnimalsDesktop animal/runtime set and adds Windows release-trust hardening for the Windows packages.

v0.2.0 was published from the wrong lineage and is superseded by this main-line v0.2.1 release.

AnimalsDesktop v0.1.5 - test preview

AnimalsDesktop v0.1.5 - test preview

v0.1.5 is a preview release with 16 selectable animals and basic motion.

Added to the preview:

• Djungarian hamster
• Campbell hamster
• Holland Lop
• Netherland Dwarf
• Himalayan rabbit
• guinea pig
• fancy rat
• albino chipmunk
• Richardson's ground squirrel
• Yorkshire Terrier

Notes:

• This is still a preview build, not the full 10-set DeguDesktop-level completion gate.
• Windows ZIP is intentionally not attached yet; it will be prepared on a Windows machine.
• Runtime foraging props remain disabled in this preview.

AnimalsDesktop v0.1.4 - test preview

v0.1.4 test preview adds the accepted gray-brown gecko set00 motion source to the runtime picker.

Included assets:

• AnimalsDesktop-macos-arm64.zip
• AnimalsDesktop-macos-amd64.zip

Windows v0.1.4 is prepared separately on a Windows machine. This preview still uses one accepted set00 source duplicated across runtime sets; full DeguDesktop-level 10-set coverage remains a later gate.

v0.1.3 テスト先行公開版

5種のset00モーションを入れたMac版テスト先行公開版です。表示、移動、左右反転、クリック反応を確認するための版で、正式な10セット完成版とは分けて扱います。Windows版は別途Windows環境でビルド確認します。
