This is Linux.  Anything silly has already been done:

Title:          ktamagalsm
Version:        0.0.1
Entered-date:   29AUG1997
Description:    This is a Tamagotchi emulator for KDE/X Windows.
                This works without KDE, too, but with KDE, it's
                better.
                It is under developement, in alpha stage! More work
                needs to be done in the main engine of the animal. Think of
                this as a preview.
                (Needs Qt (1.2+) (http://www.troll.no) and optionally
                KDE
                libraries (http://www.kde.org))

I used to be convinced that MicroSquish shipped crap because they simply
didn't give a flying fuck as long as the sheep kept buying their shit.
Now, I'm convinced that they really do ship the best products they are
capable of writing, and *that's* tragic.
