Software version
Run Duck Duck Duck today, no hardware required. The public release gives you the software-first duck, and the repo has the full source if you want to dig deeper.
I want
one!
But you didn't say please! Haha just kidding. There are a few ways to get your hands on a duck:
DIY hardware
Want a duck on your desk? Build it. Firmware, PCB files, and print files are all right here.
Notify me about the real duck
Want the official physical version? Leave your info and we'll let you know when it's ready.
Every duck has
his day
Duck Duck Duck has four looks, or more officially, four colorways. But they are all instantiations of a larger, unified metaphysical entity that has traveled across space and time. Wait, delete that. Why? Because Moby Duck reveals himself on his own terms!
The flock
Pekin
The understated one
He's the sensitive one. He'll sit and listen to you, quiet and caring, after a long day at the office. His shyness is belied by his all white feathers and soft yellow beak; Pekin is brave enough to tell you the truth, but in a voice soft enough to calm you down. He doesn't need the spotlight, just a place beside you. He'd make the heart sign if he had hands.
Mallard
The wild one
Mallard is the bad boy. The one your parents told you to stay away from. But doesn't that just increase his appeal? He's also the duck in the flock that's way older than the others for some reason. He's been around the block. He's seen every repo, every hack, every excuse you could imagine. His arrest record's as long as a pond is wide. It's mostly bar fights. If you think you can escape his scathing judgments about your spaghetti code... well. We wish you more than luck.
Pintail
The mysterious one
He may be warm and domesticated, but Pintail has zero tolerance for bird-based BS. Black and grey with a beak piercing, he wants to get work done with zero pretense. Which begs the question: what is he hiding behind that smiling exterior? You'll never know. We don't even know, and we built him. Pintail is so cool. I bet he has a motorcycle.
Classic
The frontman
Yellow body, orange beak: he's the duck to end all ducks. The duck you think of when you think of a duck. Instantly familiar, he's enraptured coders for decades. But now? Now he's got something to say. He's the heart breaker and the myth maker. He's a virtuoso on the keyboard and he reps the eastern seaboard. The other ducks can fold up their beaks and go home. The original flavor is back. Familiar, functional, fowl.
