Features -------- [](#features) - Unicorn runs and bounces across the bottom of the TYPO3 backend - Physics-based jumping with adjustable height - Sparkle trail of stars, hearts, and butterflies following the unicorn - Upside-down mode: unicorn flips and runs across the top of the screen - Double-tap Up: triggers a full-screen star shower and explosion burst - Fully keyboard-driven — no clicks required - Works across all TYPO3 backend iframes - No configuration, no database records — install and it just works Keyboard Controls ----------------- [](#keyboard-controls) KeyAction`Ctrl / Cmd + U`Toggle unicorn on / off`Ctrl / Cmd + .`Pause / resume`Arrow Up`Jump (increases jump height with each press)`Arrow Up` × 2 (quickly)Star shower + explosion burst`Arrow Down`Toggle upside-down mode (runs on the ceiling)`Arrow Left / Right`Decrease / increase running speedEaster Eggs ----------- [](#easter-eggs) **Star shower** (`Arrow Up` pressed twice quickly): launches five sparkle bursts randomly across the entire screen, plus a radial explosion of 60 stars from the unicorn's current position. **Upside-down mode** (`Arrow Down`): the unicorn flips upside down and gallops across the top of the backend. Sparkles trail downward from the ceiling. Jumping still works — the unicorn bounces away from the ceiling and is pulled back up. Press `Arrow Down` again to return to the floor. Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install via Composer: ``` composer require luisasofie/unicorn ``` Then activate the extension: ``` vendor/bin/typo3 extension:activate unicorn ``` Or install and activate via the TYPO3 Extension Manager. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - TYPO3 14.x - `typo3/cms-backend` - `typo3/cms-core` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) ### 1.0.1 [](#101) - Added upside-down mode: unicorn runs across the top of the backend when pressing `Arrow Down`, with mirrored jump physics and sparkle trail - Added double-tap `Arrow Up` easter egg: triggers a full-screen star shower combined with a radial explosion burst from the unicorn's position - Jumping now also works in upside-down mode ### 1.0.0 [](#100) - Initial release: animated unicorn running across the TYPO3 backend with sparkle trail, physics-based jumping, and keyboard controls Credits ------- [](#credits) This extension was created by Luisa Sofie Faßbender in 2026.
