Tide pool
Leave something. See who comes.
Preparing the pool. A still view remains if 3D is unavailable.
Inside the pool
Three mechanical creatures on brass joints. The violet one collects shiny things. The ivory one builds a shelter. The dark one patiently loosens it again. Tap anywhere in the water: an offering appears immediately and a free creature turns toward it.
A purely synthetic, procedural artwork. No dialogue, score, or destination. Sound is optional and starts only when you turn it on. Nothing you do here is saved or sent.
Keyboard: focus the pool, move the marker with arrow keys, then press Enter or Space. The Drop button also works without pointing. Reduced-motion settings start the world paused; you can choose to play. Hidden or offscreen pools rest.
