Clocky: the alarm clock that runs and jumps

At 6:31 a.m., I was yanked out of sleep by a crash.

Something small, fast, and ridiculously loud was zipping around the room like a toy possessed. At first, I thought I was dreaming.

I wasn’t.

My alarm clock had gone rogue.

This is Clocky. Not your average alarm. It doesn’t just beep, it runs, jumps, and forces you to chase it before your brain even wakes up.

No negotiations. No gentle nudges.

Just pure, chaotic energy.

Most alarms are easy to ignore. You hit snooze once, twice, and before you know it, you’ve slept through half the morning. That slow spiral is way too familiar. Five more minutes becomes fifteen. Then suddenly, it’s 8 a.m. and you're staring at your phone in disbelief.

Clocky doesn’t play that game. It’s designed for people who can’t be trusted with just one alarm. You get one snooze. Just one. After that, Clocky takes a leap off your nightstand and starts racing across the room. It moves in random directions, dodges whatever’s in its path, and screams like a robot on edge.

You want it to stop?

You’ve got to catch it first and then turn it off manually.

No fancy apps. No remote.

Just you, your sleepy limbs, and a wheeled alarm clock that refuses to give up.

Clocky was built to survive chaos. Its wheels are strong enough to tackle carpets, hardwood floors, and possibly the meaninglessness of Monday mornings. People even name theirs, like “Speedy” or “Doom.” Some try to trap it before going to sleep, setting up boxes, shoes, anything to slow it down.

Doesn’t matter.

Clocky still escapes.

But here’s the thing. Clocky isn’t just about waking you up. It’s about shaking you out of sleepwalking through your routines. It won’t let you stay stuck in that autopilot zone where you keep saying "later" and lose hours to nothing.

And maybe, just maybe, that rude jolt is exactly what mornings were missing.
