Research direction

Start by opening /blobby in the chat, then try the pet colors in the customization modal and via the pet’s right-click change color option. Check each color across the listed interactions, achievements, and hats; use the command palette’s pet achievements command to unlock or reset achievements. Done means the color choices and interactions have been tested and any problems recorded.
