About this game

Bring Your Desktop to Life

Neural Soul is a transparent, always-on-top desktop pet & customization app. Give your favorite characters a home on your screen — custom avatars, animated stickers, and overlays that live on top of whatever you're doing.

Your Own Desktop Companion

  • Design custom avatars from your own images — name them, place them, make them yours

  • Create and place stickers — static images or animated GIFs — anywhere on your desktop

  • Organize stickers into playlists with automatic slideshow rotation

  • Built-in SMTC music panel: shows your currently playing track with system-wide media controls and a live audio spectrum

Background Removal Tool

  • Turn any image into pet material — lightweight background removal built right in

  • Color-based removal with protect zones and a manual eraser

  • Export individual frames from a GIF for use as stickers or avatars

Streamer Sticker (PNGtuber Mode)

  • Upload an idle and a talking image — your sticker switches automatically based on your microphone

  • Dims when silent, animates when you speak — a simple PNGtuber overlay for your stream

  • Adjustable silence and talk thresholds to match your setup

LAN Party Mode

  • Host or join a local network room and appear on each other's screens — real-time, VTuber-style collabs

  • Room password support for private sessions

Steam Workshop

  • Browse, download, and share community-made avatars and stickers

  • Love a character? Someone may have already made it — or create it yourself and upload with one click

  • Filter by type: avatars, stickers, streamer stickers, or your own uploads

Lightweight & Private

  • ~100-300 MB actual RAM usage (~300+ MB on startup; tested to drop to ~90+ MB after 2 hours in standby)

  • All processing is local — no telemetry, no account required

  • Start on boot via system tray

  • Supports English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean
