A boop goes a long way.
Tap her nose, stroke a cheek, or discover a quick double boop. Genny answers with expressions, little sounds, and the occasional flourish. Too much poking? She has a face for that, too.
A little Sueniverse company
Meet Genny.
A little artist.
A very expressive face.
Genny is a desktop companion designed, built and programmed by TBC3d. She sketches, dreams, enjoys a good cup of pretend coffee, and has opinions about lemons. Give her a boop, share a quiet moment, or watch her next picture take shape.
Small moments, plenty of character
A face worth getting to know.
Comfortable with a little quiet.
Genny notices nearby company. Sometimes she looks curious; sometimes she settles into a quiet moment with you. Leave her to rest and she may drift off to sleep.
A little awareness of her world
She notices when things move.
Genny’s motion sensor lets her feel turns, tilts, taps, and vibrations. Gently turn her and watch her face shift and catch up. Pick her up and she may give a surprised little look; set her down and she settles with a blink.
A light tap on her shell gets her attention, too. Sleeping Genny can answer with a yawn and wake-up reaction, while a bumpy ride can earn wide eyes and a searching glance.
An artist at heart
Stay for the next picture.
Watch a drawing take shape stroke by stroke, with a moving pencil, thoughtful pauses, and a signature at the end. Choose a saved sketch from her gallery, or let her choose what comes next.
Some of Genny’s drawings are simple line drawings; others are quite detailed. She’s still discovering her artistic style.
The Pencil token asks for a surprise drawing. Installed sketch packs can give a token its own little collection of pictures.
Explore drawing and sketches →A little process. A little patience.
Genny takes her time with a picture. Watching her make it is part of the pleasure.
Small snacks. Strong opinions.
Something sweet? Something suspicious?
Cookie, tea, coffee, cupcake, lemon, chili, ice cream, fizzy soda—or a mystery. Each brings its own reaction. She may ask for a favorite, delight in the right treat, or decide that today calls for something else.
Snack tokens are reusable. Her pretend pantry supplies the treats and gradually replenishes while she’s running.
A little life of her own
Dreams, greetings, and tiny robot conversations.
Off to somewhere lovely.
As she sleeps, illustrated dreams may visit. The Dream Wand brings a little ceremony and a glimpse of her dream pictures, even when she began wide awake.
Meet the Dream Wand →Her own way of answering.
Faces, captions, chimes, and short beeps and boops give Genny a voice of her own. A first morning interaction can earn a stretch and a cheerful greeting.
A small Inner World.
Rest, company, snacks, and making art gradually change her tendencies. Peek at her Inner World in the browser to see her current craving and how she’s feeling.
A story to sit with.
Open an installed illustrated story on her screen and scroll at your own pace. When the last page is read, her face is just a Close away.
Company at your pace.
Choose her screen brightness, sound volume, sleep timeout, and whether she makes sketches automatically. Quiet Hours soften the household routine by silencing ordinary sounds on your schedule.
Optional daily bedtime and morning reminders add a short robot performance. They can wake Genny and sound during Quiet Hours; Volume Off silences them.
A phone opens a few more doors.
Her browser controls let you choose sketches, offer snacks, play peekaboo, open stories, and adjust settings. Connect directly to Genny or use the same home Wi-Fi. The controls run in a browser; no companion app is required.
Touch, snack tokens, and installed drawings and stories do not need Internet access. Setting the clock after power-up does. See the connection guide →
A little personal style
She does love a hat.
Genny loves to wear hats. A change of hat gives your desktop companion a fresh look—and a little more room to express her personality.
Some hats will be available separately in the TBC3d store, so you can choose a look you both like.
Made by hand, one Genny at a time.
TBC3d is a one-person operation. I design, build, assemble, and test each Genny myself—from her enclosure to the expressions and little moments that give her personality. She’s a desktop companion, made to bring a little Sueniverse company to your space.
From the Sueniverse
The artist who drew herself into existence.
Before she became a little presence beside you, Genny was a cheerful sketchbot from Winkwell, answering wonder with art and pursuing excellent black coffee. Her story belongs to the wider Sueniverse.
Coming soon to the TBC3d store
A little company is on the way.
Genny is in the final stages of research and development and will be available for purchase soon. Orders are not open yet.
