What have you done? Now I'm sitting here through my sprint planning and poking that balloon.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's broken on all mobile browsers I think

Works just fine on an iPhone X. The point of tech demos isn’t to let the person know if it works on a Motorola Razr. You’re not always the intended audience.

I have an iPhone XS and it is broken for me

This produces an unsettling flickering effect on Firefox Mobile (nightly).

Baloon just sits there, saying 'soon' while all of it strobes.

I put an interactive cat on my resume and I'm pretty sure it literally got me the job. ( https://pkunk.org/resume/ ) A little fun goes a long way!

Reminds me of Neko, the Mac/Windows desktop toy from the early 90s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neko_(software)

'sudo apt install oneko' still works in lots of Linuxes I think

Does anyone know how is something like this balloon built?

Is this a library?

Or some sort of physics simulator?

Reminds me to the old MSDOS "Alley Cat" game: https://archive.org/details/msdos_Alley_Cat_1984

That was my first thought, the theme song came rushing right back. I found it on YouTube https://youtu.be/uZDG4dlU5uY but I think my PCjr was slower than the machine that recorded this because the song was much more sparse back when I played the game.
