Clockinator’s Super Nova Clock Face

4 Super Nova Clock Faces

Super Nova is an experiment in handwriting. We purposfully avoided perfect handwriting to see how well we could implement something readable in the clock.

It just stands up and screams for some motion. We’re not saying it’s gonna happen, but we’re not saying it’s not gonna happen, either. Stay tuned and check back for updates.

Clockinator’s Headlights Clock Face

Headlights always reminds me of night time in the city. Maybe it’s because there’d have to be a lot of cars to make that many headlights.

This is another clock face that really screams to be animated. Who knows, maybe one day.

It was initially created using the “Bokeh” template in BeLight Software’s Art Text 4 app.

Clockinator’s Harlequin Clock Face

Harlequin uses a fancy font, fancy textures and fancy layering. It should have been called “Fancy,” but what are you going to do?

Created with more layers than you would expect, the checkerboard pattern can be changed by the app to random colors, if you get bored with the more standard ones.

The seconds indicator is even fancy. Every fifth second is the highlight color, in case you are really trying to count them.

Clockinator’s Vibes Clock Face

4 Vibes Clock Faces  

Vibes is the second face created for Clockinator. With extra bright colors and large numbers, it’s easy to see from across the room.

Each preset calls to mind a specific color set for specific holidays. Choosing the first one will allow the app to select completely random colors with no restrictions.

It was inspired by one of the “Offset” designs in BeLight Software’s Art Text 4 app. Each number is created in 4 layers: Background, Stripes, Dots, and Outline. This allows the app to assign different colors to each layer at random and gives a unique opportunity to spread the layers out using the slider in the settings.

Clockinator’s Happy Monsters Clock Face

4 Happy Monster Clock Faces

Happy Monsters is the clock face that started it all. Clockinator was built from the ground up to bring a smile to your face whenever you have to look at the time, and the Happy Monsters face does just that. With several different versions of each number, you never really know what its going to look like.

Miniature versions of the numbers appear across the bottom of the clock, denoting each second as it passes. Seconds can be turned on by swiping any clock face towards the top, and they can be turned off again by swiping towards the bottom. It’s like you’re making room for them at the bottom of the screen.
