Desktop toys! I used to love those! As we upgraded the family PC, they got buggier and buggier, but I kept trying.
I had a friend in highschool who once brought his laptop to school to take notes and on that day me and a few other guys learned that he had the virtual stripper girl desktop buddy
I had one that put lots of little sheep on the desktop, that would walk around on top of windows.
I fantasize often about writing a parkour stickman who climbs up my desktop windows and jumps between them
I remember tiny Elvis.
I'd love a Linux version of the classic Neko, that followed and played with your mouse
Your prayers have been answered.
Omg. It's even written in golang It's so spanky new. Look at the recent commits. Thank you!!
Banzai buddy is slowing the computer down, dad!
Hey! I found one of them. I didn't have this one as a kid, but it's the same kinda thing. No idea if it works in modern windows but it works in my Windows XP virtual machine.
I remember all of them. I remember there was one for one the Rugrats, one for Spongebob, and one for Ralph from Spy Kids (I still have the last one). And I remember they often had to be uninstalled because they'd screw up with the computer if it was older.
Yes! I had a cheap windows 95 or 98 PC and it barely ran them. But, I downloaded them over and over anyway.
