Deskworm is a desktop pet that animates based on your keyboard and mouse activity, rewarding your interaction with collectable cosmetic items to customize its appearance. Beyond idle entertainment, it functions as a posture reminder through its "Anti-Shrimp" feature, encouraging you to stretch periodically. It appeals to players who enjoy low-commitment pet simulators and cosmetic collecting without demanding active engagement.
About this game
A tiny desktop worm pet that moves when you type, click, or play. Dress it up with hats and skins, park it in a pocket where its gaze follows your mouse, and let its Anti-Shrimp reminders nudge you to sit up and stretch.

A low effort clicker game in a long line of them all about Steam inventory items to make money with no over-sight for poor gaymers.
Good item collecting game, I played the demo for awhile and there are quite a few items to collect here and the worm can be un-docked from it's station to go crawl around your desktop. I typically just had it docked, it's quite small and unobtrusive, and the items allow for a really detailed customization of your worm, since it can be structured from individual pieces.
This Dragon Black Head was the best part I got dropped while I was running the demo, didn't run it too often but there are a lot of little pieces of collect. Now finally on the actual full released game! 😊
The design is simple yet very visually appealing. The features are cool and make it fun to use. Sometimes, though, I’m not sure whether it’s just watching me or quietly judging me.
