What Trumpagotchi does

  • You raise a tiny Trump pet inside the FM-1, feeding, praising, cleaning and resting him.
  • The lower white keys play a corny pentatonic instrument, and a happy Trump joins in on bongos.
  • Keyboard notes are dry, with no reverb or delay, and K1 to K4 and FX are unused.
  • The first four lit upper black keys are Feed, Praise, Clean and Rest, left to right.
  • Feed refills his burger stack, Praise lifts his mood, Clean removes wrappers and cartoon poo, and Rest sleeps or wakes him.
  • A day lasts five minutes, and sleeping at night runs through to dawn and restores full energy.
  • Press SAVE once the audio is quiet to store progress and see PET SAVED, and it also autosaves about once a minute.
  • PLAY and STOP pause or continue the pet, clock and audio, while MASTER sets overall volume.
