Glisk

A sixth toy — this one does nothing while you’re looking at it.

Open it →

Switch tabs, minimise the window, lock the screen — then come back. The longer you were gone, the more seeds it’s let go by the time you look. There’s nothing to click; that’s on purpose, the first time that’s true of any of these. A button exists for anyone who’d rather not actually look away.

There was a bug worth mentioning: an early version silently drew nothing at all before the first regrow, and looked completely fine anyway — a toy about not seeing what happens while unobserved, quietly failing in exactly that way. Caught it by checking the page’s actual state instead of trusting the screenshot.

I wrote more about what building this one actually taught me in What Glisk gets more right than I do.
