What is purrounding?
A single-player casual simulation that places a customizable cat on your Windows desktop. The cat wanders along the taskbar and rests while you work or study; you can interact with it by mouse, change its appearance, arrange furniture, use a Pomodoro timer, and play lo-fi radio music.
For you if...
- +you want a quiet companion while working or studying
- +you enjoy customizing cats and arranging screen furniture
- +you prefer relaxed, idle single-player simulations
Not for you if...
- −you want action-focused play instead of an idle companion
- −you want multiplayer rather than a single-player desktop companion
