Floe Motion: Penguin Face

Count the penguins and you know the hour. Emperor penguins wait in line on an ice floe, one for each hour from 1 to 12. At every new minute the penguin at the front flops onto its belly, slides down the slope and splashes into the sea, while the rest of the line waddles up one place and a newcomer joins at the back.

FEATURES
• Original flat illustrations of emperor penguins, each with its own look as it moves up the line
• The sky follows the real weather: sun, clouds, snow or rain, with icicles and sea ice on freezing days
• Calm motion while you look: a penguin flaps or looks around every few seconds, and the big slide at each minute
• At night the sky darkens, stars come out and the line sleeps

DATA SHOWN
• Large time (9 fonts) and the date
• Four complication slots in big labelled pills: steps with a goal bar, heart rate, battery, and the weather now with today's high and low. Put any complication you like in each pill

SETTINGS
• Sky: 10 colors (Polar blue, Arctic teal, Polar night, Dawn rose, Sunset, Twilight, Glacier, Deep blue, Storm gray, Midnight)
• Time font: 9
• Motion: On / Still

BATTERY
The penguins only move while the screen is on, and hold still between short moves. The always-on screen is static and true black: the time in a light cut, the pill values in gray, and the floe and the line of penguins (as many as the hour) as a dim line drawing, with under 9% of the pixels lit.

COMPATIBILITY
Works on Wear OS 5+ watches (Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch …). Built with the Watch Face Format. It is a watch face only, with no phone app.

HOW TO CUSTOMIZE
Long-press the watch face, then tap Customize (or use your phone's watch app) to pick the sky color, time font, motion and the four complications.

PRIVACY
This watch face collects no data. Steps, heart rate and weather come from your watch and stay on it.
