Everything since launch — thank you for making it #3 🏆🐾

A few days ago Tamamon launched here and you made it #3 Product of the Day. Thank you — genuinely. It's a tiny pixel pet that lives on your desktop and grows as you code with Claude Code, and since launch it's had ~30 updates — almost every one straight from a comment in this thread. Here's what's new, and who it came from.

🏡 Your pet moved into a home — and the home builds itself as you code

At launch it just wandered your desktop. Now, as you code, an empty patch of grass fills in one warm thing at a time: a flower, a stone by the path, a cottage when your egg hatches, a pond, lanterns, a hearth glowing at the center. Nothing is random — every object is earned by real growth and placed by hand, and once it's there it stays. There's a cozy isometric room to step into, day/night and seasons (a snowman visits in winter), and you can drag anything to rearrange it.

✨ Meet the Warmthfolk — now 50 to collect

So many of you asked "what ARE these creatures?" They're the Warmthfolk: a little spirit that borrows the nearest cozy shape to be near you — a mug, a cloud, a sleepy pup, a deep-sea narwhal. One soul, many cozy coats. There were 20 at launch; there are 50 now, each with its own field-guide line in four languages, fully animated across every stage. Export/import your whole collection between machines anytime (thanks Leopold & Prashant 💜).

🌱 Growth you can see — and now, growth that's earned

The feedback I've thought about most: several of you (Florent, David, Art, Ziang, Luki) said growth should feel earned, not just raw token count. So — there's a growth bar now; the first hatch adapts to your own pace so lighter users don't wait weeks (thanks John); and as of today, your pet notices the hard days — after a genuinely tough session (maxed-out context, a long stretch of real work, a big pile of code changed) it gives you a quiet, warm nod: "that was a rough one… you pushed right through 🌿". It reads effort, not idle time, never nags, and reads only signals already on your Mac.

📊 Real usage that just works — in your language, and finally reliable

Tamamon shows your actual Claude usage (current + weekly) from your own Claude Code login — only the numbers, never your code or conversations, and nothing leaves your Mac. It's fully localized (EN / 日本語 / Español), and the "Can't load usage" some of you hit is fixed properly: an opt-in relay that reads the numbers Claude Code already computes, no network, no keychain, your settings touched only with consent and restored byte-for-byte on disconnect.

💜 You asked, we listened

Adaptive hatch (John), earned-growth nudges (Florent, David, Art, Ziang, Luki), export/import (Leopold, Prashant), clearer growth + messaging (Nuriye, Şerafettin, Brandon, Yakup), easier quit + a cleaner goodbye (Mohammad Faisal). And the things you told me to protect — the rain that sends your pet home, local-only with no account, the fact that it's happily useless — those aren't going anywhere.

Still on my list: a one-click "share my Tamamon" card, the deeper earned-growth design, and a few more Warmthfolk. If there's something you wish it did, this thread is still the best place to say so. 🐾
