Our take on TaskPals
The defining interaction is the choice between friendly pets that accept clicks and annoyed pets that flee from the cursor, turning the taskbar into a small chase area.
What is TaskPals?
TaskPals is a desktop companion app that places eight pixel pets around the taskbar.
Players can choose which pets appear, select where they begin, and set their behavior to friendly or annoyed. Friendly pets can be petted with a click. Annoyed pets move away from the cursor, creating a chase around the taskbar. This mode is intended to keep the pets from disturbing taskbar use while work is underway. The app focuses on selecting pets, adjusting their starting area, and changing how they respond to interaction.
