Deskworm A little worm to keep you company

A tiny worm lives on your desktop and crawls a little further every time you type or click, with soft little sounds as you go. Dress it in hats and skins, park it in a pocket, grow it longer, and let it remind you to sit up straight. Calm company for work and play.

Is Deskworm worth it?

  • you want something calm sitting on your screen while you work
  • you like dressing up a little creature in silly hats
  • you want gentle reminders to stretch and take breaks
  • you like sharing a desktop with friends and their worms

A small pet that keeps you company

Your worm hangs out on top of your desktop and moves when you do. Type an email and it inches forward, click through tabs and it keeps crawling, until it reaches the edge of the screen and turns around. Typing also makes soft little sounds, so ordinary work comes with a quiet rhythm.

If you want it closer, Pocket Mode tucks it into a small pouch on your screen. There it sits still, head turning to follow your cursor.

Hats, skins, and a very long worm

Typing and clicking earns points, and points buy item drops with hats and skins in five rarities, from Common at 85% down to Legendary at 0.05%. Make the worm cute, stylish, silly, or something you will regret at 2 a.m.

Duplicates have a use. Combine items of the same rarity to craft one from the next tier, or feed spare items to your worm to add body segments so it slowly grows longer. You can also scale the worm tiny or large and resize the pocket, so it fits your screen the way you like.

Good to know before it moves in?

How does the worm play with friends?

Invite friends or join strangers, and their worms appear and crawl across your desktop alongside yours. There is no shared objective stated, just more worms wiggling in the same space while everyone types and clicks.

Does it help with focus and breaks?

It has a Pomodoro timer for working in focus blocks with clear breaks, plus Anti-Shrimp reminders that nudge you to sit up straight, stand up, and stretch. Think friendly posture goblin, not strict coach.

Can you change how big or distracting it is?

Yes. Scale the worm from tiny to big, resize the pocket, and adjust the settings until it feels right. Keep it as a small background presence, or let a large worm patrol the screen edge while you type.
