v1.8.0: The cat rots

The cat in the pill and on the widget now decays with your scrolling, instead of just looking a bit sadder.

The cat rots

Until now the cat swapped between five expressions as you closed in on your limit, and the change was easy to miss. There is now one cat, and it rots.

Fresh, it is a kitten: big eyes, pink ears, blush, whiskers, a small smile. As the minutes climb, the blush and the pink go first, the ears sag, the pupils shrink and the smile flattens. Then the fur greens and mould spreads, one eye clouds over, and the mouth turns down. Then an eye goes X and the skull starts to show through. At the limit there is only the skull.

It only moves one way inside a day, like the counters, and comes back fresh at midnight.

The pill follows it

The time in the floating pill is now coloured by the cat's state: bone while it is merely wilting, amber once the mould shows, and red once it is gone. The home-screen widget already went amber then red and keeps doing so, now with the same cat.

Installing

arm64 only, which is any phone from roughly 2017 onwards. Older 32-bit devices will refuse to install it.

Signature note. As with every release here, this APK is signed with a development key, not the key a future Play Store build will use. If you install this and later move to a Play version, you will need to uninstall first.
