Desktop Goose
A downloadable goose-sperience for Windows and macOS
HONK HONK, HEAR YE. I have created a goose for your desktop.
He'll nab your mouse, track mud on your screen... leave you a message, deliver you memes?
Play video games with a desktop buddy who will attack you if you poke him.
Fill out spreadsheets while your screen fills up with instances of Goose Notepad.
Supports MacOS versions 10.10+!
NOTE: I am not affiliated with House House or Panic. This is a different goose. Direct support questions to the Discord!

Desktop Cat Cursor: Transform your ordinary mouse cursor into its eternal nemesis: a cat paw

From 0.2+:

this truely kills my sadness thankyou
i love you duck thing
Is this a virus? cuz i want to damload it
Nope! I've downloaded this many times, and I've never gotten a virus. Plus it's by a verified creator, so i wouldn't worry.
I would love a feature where if you rub your cursor over him to pet, he reacts to it, like closes his eyes or sum.
My friend put this on my computer, and I thought I had a virus 10/10.
Any way i can make it show up on my windows login screen?
make it so that drawing a box on the desktop traps him?
goose
when playing games he like caps the fps to 20-30 how can I fix this
goose is friend
how to close the goose i need him not here right now
\
you hold esc
thanks
Np
i wanna report a bug that i cant remove a folder its the sound one
i wanna remove it because i dont wanna hear sounds
You can disable audio in the config.ini file :)
cute project:)
could i disable or close the goose whenever i want?
whenever I try to evict it, the pop-up thing the just disappears what can I do?
Whenever i open it a giant blue box covers my screen
bro the giant blue box is when all the file explorer running apps are closed (so the goose app didnt cover the screen with blue)
wish there is a apple m chip version or universal. current one only works on intel Mac
works for me just fine
I want this but idk if it is safe.
it is, but it's annoying. People just call it a virus for fun it's not actually unsafe
Linux plz!
Happy Birthday, GooseDesktop.exe !!! 🎂
doesn't open. please fix
I Found How U Can Open It
Step 1: Open WinRAR
Step 2: Find Desktop Goose
Step 3: Open GooseDesktop.exe
And Ur Done! Ur Goose Is There
噢，我们以后可以给这个小混蛋喂食或穿衣服吗？我希望能多和它互动
HEY! If you are stuck by Goose, Hold Esc untill the top left will Kill this little goose.
no eviction means kickout
Innocent little goose gets killed💀💀💀
is this safe?
it's safe, but looks annoying.
much more fun when you run it 4 times at once
okay
sadly do not work for me i realy want it tho
how do i disable all the memes?
You can't.
You just need to delete all of them go to assets and then text and images and delete everything
Goose doesn't have any beef with the ROG virtual pet on my PC. Yet.
10/10
No.

HOW DO I DELETE ITPLEASE
