This page is the family feature checklist: editorial previews of what exists in product direction, and clear coming-later labels where routes or release evidence are still gated. It is not a storefront, not a spoiler dump, and not a promise that every Oddity behaves the same.
Each card names a capability theme. Status labels say whether this page is previewing product direction or waiting on a sibling route.
Interact
Touch, toss, poke, and signature moves.
Many Oddities respond to direct manipulation - grab, place, poke, or character-specific actions where supported. Behavior differs by species and surface; nothing here claims universal physics.
Oddities idle, wander, and react without constant input. The goal is ambient delight, not nonstop noise. Pacing and autonomy vary by character.
Story preview Desktop home is the primary ambient surface - see Why · Ambient life
Combine
Selected Oddities notice each other.
Some characters react when others are nearby or when shared moments occur. This page stays spoiler-light; exhaustive interaction graphs belong with OddityDex later.

Discover
Learning is part of play.
Progressive disclosure of personality, behaviors, and selected interactions - without dumping spoilers on public pages. OddityDex owns the public-safe encyclopedia journal.

Achieve
Milestones distinct from discovery.
Long-term progress: first interactions, collection moments, and secrets where disclosure policy allows. The iPhone journal is the primary surface in the current plan. Cloud sync is not promised here.
Packs group Oddities and interactions into little worlds. Roadmap existence is not a purchase claim. The Marketplace is a read-only browse surface over a validated projection - still no prices or store CTAs.

Play across devices
Mac, iPhone, and iPad with different jobs.
DesktopOddities is ambient Mac home. PocketOddities is the iPhone companion and listing identity for the universal binary. PlaygroundOddities is iPad play-first - not a separate App Store product.
Story preview Complementary roles - not buy-once-everywhere or guaranteed sync
Accessible by design
Readable without decorative motion.
Product direction includes calmer presentation options and assistive-friendly patterns where platforms allow. On this site, Reduced Motion keeps the full story readable without relying on reveal animation.
Capability cards describe direction, not a release checklist. Unknown availability stays unavailable.
Starter demo
A combine-capable starter pair.
Peanut Butter and Jelly illustrate authored personalities and a temporary combined form. Depending on the Oddity - this is not every species, and not a full interaction spoiler.

Story stills only. Marketplace character art and live downloads stay gated.
Where capabilities land
Three named experiences, one family.
Platform pages carry device-specific story detail. This overview ties the themes together without duplicating every paragraph.
