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!

[And if you wanna support my work, I made some new things you can check out!]
Desktop Cat Cursor: Transform your ordinary mouse cursor into its eternal nemesis: a cat paw

ITS AMAZING, but is there any other way other than opening the file and having to click a lot to wake up the little guy, or is it the only way? it doesn't bother me though
Goose Approves. Maybe? He tracked mud all over it immediately afterwards so who can tell.
