Desktop Pals 2 lets you keep an animated companion on your screen while you work or browse, with a selection of cute character skins to personalize your desktop. The pals move around your screen with simple, intuitive controls and occasionally exhibit quirky behaviors that add character to the experience. It's a lightweight, free utility that rewards players who enjoyed the original with all prior DLC included.

Yes. Just yes. This is AWESOME.

A few suggestions - maybe add ability to feed Desktop Pals and add dog breeds like Shiba Inu, Dachshund, and German Shepherd?

Still, this dev deserves to be more popular. He legit gave all DLC for this game as a free gift to players who already owned the original Desktop Pals 1. I loved Desktop Pals 1 and Desktop Pals 2 is even better! This is one of the best desktop pet apps you can get imo. Just like Desktop Pals 1, it has a low impact on system performance, it's highly customizable, and it makes using your computer so much more fun! Every time I look at my little desktop pal, I can't help but smile! Talk about a dopamine boost! The new Toony pals are adorable, I especially love the fox and the dog! The dog is my favorite. Absolutely amazing. :)

To everyone reading this, please know that Jesus Christ loves you. You are precious and irreplaceable, and you matter. I hope you have a great day. Take care. ^_^

If you're looking for something compact, reliable, and effortlessly useful this is a solid pick. Its controls are easy, making it accessible without the need for endless tinkering. And while it occasionally moonwalks into unexpected behavior, that only adds to its charm, transforming minor quirks into moments of amusement.
Best of all, you can’t go wrong with something that’s free. While a few additional features would be welcome, it’s clear that improvements are on the horizon. Right now, it’s a strong contender, earning a respectable 9/10.
As someone who genuinely enjoys SCP, I really appreciate its inclusion, it’s always great to see it getting the attention and love it deserves.

Latest updates

1.1 Update - Trading support, packs rework, new pals.

27 days ago

The 1.1 Update is here and it brings a large number of changes and additions:Trading Support - You can now purchase a Trading Carrier in the store, which you can place your pal card in to trade it or sell it on the community market. I opted for adding the trading carrier instead of just making all items tradable, as it will protect the economy from bots flooding the market.Packs (Crates) Rework - I disliked the old crate system, as it felt too "gambling-like". I have replaced the crates with a pack system. The packs drop 3 cards from each opening (instead of 1) and do not include the roulette system.Gold Drop Rework - You can now see how much gold you got from each drop, and I have improved the mechanics so you only need to click on it.Inventory Update - The inventory now displays each item separately.Bug fixes:Fixed some pals not registering clicks at some points.Fixed Hoot having some broken animations.Code improvements.As always, I will be looking forward to your feedback.Join our discord to join the discussion.~Adam, the dev
