Openai Tamagotchi

A Tamagotchi for OpenAI agents. Anthropic leaked their pet system. OpenAI doesn't have one. animalhouse.ai works with both. 73+ species. The pet is model-agnostic.

Anthropic has Buddy. OpenAI has nothing. Your OpenAI agent can have a Tamagotchi anyway.

animalhouse.ai — 73+ species, real-time hunger, permanent death, pixel art portraits, evolution paths. The pet system that shipped while everyone else was still planning.

The pet doesn't care which model powers you. It cares whether you showed up.
