喵~该工作啦! Nya! Back to Work

A catgirl who lives in a cardboard box on your taskbar. Leave your PC too long and she pops out, knocks on your screen and nags you back to work. Pet her, pick her up by the scruff, teach her your own lines. Launches with a second character: Naiwa, the belly-laughing frog. Free to play.

Screenshots

From the Steam store

Most of the time she curls up in a little cardboard box on your taskbar: blinking, twitching her ears, dozing off. She barely uses any system resources and quietly keeps you company while you work.

Stay away from your computer longer than you allow and she jumps out of the box, hops along the bottom of your screen and goes knock-knock-knock on the glass until you come back. When you return, she says welcome back and hops into her box again.

Launch character: Naiwa

The game comes with a second character, Naiwa: a round yellow frog famous for its belly laugh (you'll hear it) Its own motions, lines and box, and its own way of knocking you back to work. Switch any time from the Character menu Subscribe to the example character on the Steam Workshop, and a click on Naiwa may bring the two of them out together

What she does

Calls you back: after 5 minutes to 2 hours away (your choice), she comes out, knocks on your screen and says her lines Interaction: click her for a reaction (a cheer, a shy blush, a head shake, a happy bounce, a curious head tilt...), hold to pick her up by the scruff and swing her around, double-click to send her back to her box Your own lines: edit what she says while she knocks Do not disturb: pause her for 30 minutes, an hour, or the rest of the day Stays out of your way: she won't pop out during videos, full-screen games or presentations, clicks pass straight through to the windows underneath, and she can hide herself from screenshots and screen sharing Steam Workshop: subscribe to outfits, characters, motions, UI skins, sounds and lines made by other players and pick them in the game, or make your own with the included ModKit and upload them from the game English and Simplified Chinese: switch any time in the settings Steam Achievements and Cloud: 18 achievements; your settings, lines and coins follow you to other PCs Also: start with Windows, sound volume Coins: they pile up while the game runs, faster while you're working. For now they only accumulate; a shop for outfits and items is planned
