Description
The screen shows a pet with food, mood and energy bars. The first four black keys feed it, praise it, clean up after it and put it to bed or wake it. The white keys play a pentatonic scale without reverb or delay, and a happy pet joins in on bongos. A day lasts five minutes, news items lower its mood and raise its appetite, and when all three bars reach zero a game-over screen appears. Twelve voice clips edited from US government recordings play as reactions. Progress is saved manually and about once a minute, and time while powered off does not count. The author calls it an unofficial parody. It is built on FoMni by way of Fart Machine One.
Install notes
Download trumpagotchi.fwsc and the source zip from the release, then run tools/fm1_install.py (Python 3 with the packages in requirements-install.txt). Installation replaces the current firmware, and a successful install reports FM-1_710. If an update is interrupted, run the same command again. The author tested the package on one FM-1.
