Crawling Desktop Pet
AnKer
Raise a procedural pet on your Windows desktop. Hatch eggs, feed and evolve pets, collect Crystals, unlock toys and scenes, and shape each body part to create a companion of your own. Switch between windowed and transparent desktop modes, enable click-through, or invite friends online.
Overview
Crawling Desktop Pet is a companion-focused creature-raising game that brings an unusual little lifeform onto your Windows desktop.
It follows your cursor, crawls freely across the screen, and reacts to toys and its surroundings. Or it can simply stay by your side while you work, study, browse, or relax.
From Egg to Desktop Companion
Tap the shell and hatch your first desktop companion.
Feed it, care for it, and watch it grow and evolve as new interactions and collectibles gradually become available. Your pet also produces Crystals that can be used to obtain food, upgrades, scenes, toys, and new companions.
Raise and Collect
Hatch different pet eggs, raise multiple companions, and switch the pet that stays with you whenever you like.
More possibilities open up as you progress. Arrange different scenes, place a variety of toys, and see how your pets react. You can also unlock achievements and personalization items to give your presence a more distinctive look.
Create a Creature of Your Own
Each pet is driven in real time by a procedural skeletal system rather than fixed, pre-rendered animations.
Adjust the proportions, structure, movement, and appearance of individual body parts to create something gentle, strange, elegant, or completely unexpected. Designs can be saved, imported, and exported, making it easy to keep experimenting or share your creations.
A Companion on Your Terms
Switch between the full window and transparent desktop modes. Hide interface elements, reduce notifications, or enable mouse click-through whenever you need a quieter desktop.
Whether you want to focus on raising and creating or simply keep a small creature resting in the corner of your screen, Crawling Desktop Pet can fit naturally into your routine.
Connect with Friends
Invite friends for online interactions, show off your pets and personalized looks, and discover more lighthearted ways to spend time together.
Every desktop pet can become a little life that is uniquely yours.
