Desktop Ball
A little ball that lives on top of your desktop and can blow it up, zap it, flood it, haunt it, or grow a garden all over it. Fidget with it through meetings, queues and compiles, and when you're done, it gets out of the way. Seven weird balls, and every one of them beats doomscrolling.

It lives on your desktop.
It's a little toy that lives on top of your desktop, sort of like a digital fidget spinner.
Play with it in a queue, a meeting, a compile, a render, whenever your hands want something to do. Grab it, fling it around, bounce it off the edges of your monitors, and when you stop playing, it gets out of the way so everything else just works underneath.
Had a rough day?
Yeah... these two are for you. Pin the Supernova against an edge until it gets DANGEROUSLY HOT, and it goes off in a violent thermonuclear explosion that sets your screen on fire.
Tesla is a thunderstorm squeezed into a ball. Charge it against an edge, throw it hard, and THUNDER STRIKES. Even your mouse gets charged up and starts zapping things.
Touch grass. Then haunt it!
Sprout turns your desktop into a cozy little garden. Roll it along the edges to grow flowers, or squeeze it to grow vines all over your screen. Just remember to trim it once in a while.
Ghost, on the other hand, HAUNTS your desktop. Every throw leaves a little ghost behind, and if you squish it into a wall they just keep coming. They spook easily and they definitely don't pay rent.
Splash or dunk?
Spongeball turns your screen into a tiny ocean, with a little school of fish to bother. Let the sponge soak up water, then wring it out against your monitor. Or just slosh it all around aggressively (the fish love it!)
The Basketball slides its own hoop out from the side of your screen. Bank shots, trick shots, and dunks so good the ball catches fire, followed by a completely unnecessary amount of confetti.
Pinky and the gang
Pinky is the mascot, and the squishiest of the bunch. He has no thoughts, only kinetic energy. Squish him flat against a wall and he slingshots across your screen. Super small chance he'll wink at ya.
Right-click any ball to swap it for another, each with its own little backstory. And the first time you open the game, the whole gang shows up to dance for you :)
Pick up and play
Always there for you when you want to grab it
Leave it alone and it keeps going: the fish keep swimming, butterflies visit your garden, and the ghosts drift around.
Hides itself if you go fullscreen, or you can tuck it in a Magnetic Corner
Seven balls so far: Pinky, Supernova, Tesla, Spongeball, Basketball, Sprout, and Ghost
I lost an embarrassing amount of that time just playing Desktop Ball, instead of making it... I hope it keeps you good company :)
