The Toplings laboratory
Your next Toplings start with you.
A photo, a drawing, two parents… Choose how to bring a new companion to life.
From an image
A photo, a drawing… and it’s alive.
Your cat, your self-portrait, a creature from your sketchbook or your favourite plush toy: send one to three images of the same subject. It comes to life in pixel art on your windows.

Smoking, the very first custom Topling — made from this photo.
Send your images
One to three views of the same subject: a photo, drawing or original creation.
It comes to life in pixels
Its shapes, colours and details inspire an animated Topling.
It joins your flock
It walks, naps and gets up to antics on your windows, alongside the others.
Visit the workshop in the app or on the website. Your Topling is linked to your account and joins you on Mac and Windows.
Through breeding
Two parents. A face all its own.
Bring two Toplings together in the laboratory. Their little one blends their traits with a touch of its own magic. When the egg is ready, it’s yours to hatch.
Choose a male and a female from your flock, of the same or different species. Your custom Toplings can become parents, too.

Choose the parents
Two companions from your flock meet in the laboratory.
An egg gets ready
Their little one takes shape, inspired by their silhouettes and colours.
Hatch it
Once it’s ready, meet its little face and welcome it onto your windows.
Before your idea comes to life
Can I really start with a drawing?
Yes! A drawing, original character, portrait, animal or plush toy: send one to three images of the same subject. Use images you created or have permission to use. Public figures are not accepted; the image AI may decline a well-known character, in which case your generation is returned.
Which Toplings can become parents?
A male and a female from your own flock, of the same or different species. Toplings created from images and those born through breeding can also become parents once hatched.
Does everything happen on the website?
Image-based creations can be ordered from the website or the app. Breeding takes place in the app’s laboratory, where you choose parents from your flock. Each workshop shows its current availability in its creation area.
