Squeek Sprouts — IMD objective (paste into explorer.imd.fun/launch)

Build "Squeek Sprouts": a single-page, static, browser idle-farming game for Squeekchain where crops grow ONLY from the real wheel work of Squeektoshi, the hamster that powers Squeekchain. It is a game people play and come back to, not a dashboard.

Core idea

• The player owns a 3x3 pixel-art garden. Each crop needs a fixed amount of "wheel work" (wheel passes counted by Squeekchain) to ripen.
• Growth = currentCumulativeWork - workWhenPlanted. When the hamster naps, the garden sleeps (night scene). When he runs, it grows, even while the player is away (idle game).
• Harvesting while the hamster is running is a "fresh harvest": 2x crumbs and a 15% chance of a GOLDEN crop worth 5x.

Live data (public, CORS-enabled, no key)

• Poll GET https://api.squeekchain.com/v1/status every 15 s.
  • measurement.cumulativeWorkUnits (string number): the growth counter.
  • measurement.counterEpoch: if it changes, or the counter goes down, rebase every planted crop so it keeps the progress it had (planted = newWork - (lastWork - planted)).
  • measurement.coreStatus (SPINNING | IDLE), rpmMilli (/1000 = RPM), speedMmPerSecond, distanceMm, freshness (online or stale; if not online show "signal stale, garden paused" and do not count it as running).
  • builder.projected.blockHeight: show as Squeek block height.
• Optional fallback: if the API fails twice, switch to a clearly labelled DEMO wheel (simulated naps/runs, separate save slot) so the page never looks broken.

Economy (keep these numbers)

| Crop | Work to ripen | Seed cost | Sells for | Unlocks after crumbs earned |

|---|---|---|---|---|

| Wheel Radish | 40 | free | 6 | 0 |

| Zoomie Carrot | 120 | 8 | 20 | 30 |

| Round Pumpkin | 400 | 30 | 70 | 150 |

| Rim Sunflower | 1000 | 90 | 190 | 500 |

| Moon Melon | 3000 | 260 | 600 | 1500 |

• Start with 10 crumbs and 3 open plots. Plots 4–9 cost 25, 60, 120, 250, 500, 1000 crumbs.
• Save state in localStorage (wrap in try/catch). A "Reset garden" button needs two taps (no confirm() dialogs).

Screens and feel

• Left panel: a pixel-art canvas of Squeektoshi on his wheel. The wheel spins at a speed scaled from the live RPM; the hamster bobs when running and sleeps with "zzz" under a moon when idle. Below it: status pill (RUNNING · GROWING / NAPPING · GARDEN SLEEPS / STALE / DEMO), work counter, RPM, speed (m/s), distance (km), block height, and "work grown here".
• Main panel: seed shed (each seed shows its pixel sprite, cost, work needed, price, or lock state), the 3x3 garden (tap empty plot = plant selected seed, tap growing plot = shows work left, tap ripe plot = harvest, tap locked plot = buy), progress bars, a glowing border on ripe crops.
• Garden journal: timestamped log of ripe crops, harvests, golden crops, unlocks, counter restarts.
• All crop sprites are drawn on canvas in code (4 growth stages each, distinct ripe shapes: radish, carrot, pumpkin, sunflower, crescent-marked moon melon). No emoji, no stock images. Fonts: Silkscreen + VT323 from Google Fonts. Warm dark palette (soil browns, leaf greens, gold accent).
• Must work on phones (garden stays 3 columns, panels stack).

Stretch (only if cheap and safe)

• "Sign in with wallet" via a signed message (no gas, no approvals) to show the player's short address on a local high-score card. Never request transactions or token approvals.

Delivery

• Pure static HTML/CSS/JS, no build step, no backend, no private keys, no transactions.
• Host on IPFS/ENS and deliver the code to GitHub. README explains the data source and the growth/rebase math.
• Footer: "Reads Squeekchain's public API. No wallet, no gas, nothing is signed."
