About this gameFull description from Steam
NOODS (Niche Operators Orchestrating Desktop Shenanigans) is part productivity tool and part virtual buddy, featuring a helpful digital companion that lives on your desktop and transforms lonely grinds into cozy work sessions. Niche Operators Say hello to your new virtual buddy! These “desktop roommates” are happy to hang out on your PC and see what you’re up to, lending a hand with pomodoro timers, to-do lists, and a way to block distracting apps. Your first Operator (in Early Access) is the retro-inspired and lovingly hand-animated Lily; a raccoon gamer girl who is as dedicated to keeping you company as she is at cracking her own high scores. Make Custom Operators (Coming Soon) Switch between Operators with different looks, personalities, and habits (Operator Store coming soon!) Choose the one best suited for the task at hand, or the one who you want to toss around like a ball- we won’t judge you. Check out NOODS Maker*, the companion app to create your own Operator from scratch. *note: NOODS and NOODS Maker are two separate apps on Steam Stay Focused Part idle clicker, part virtual buddy, Operators have many useful abilities to lend you a hand in your daily tasks; timers, schedules, and more to come! So keep an eye out for upcoming releases. Designed to keep you focused and facilitate your real-life tasks, your Operator is just the right balance of subtle and functional to provide what you need, when you need it. To-Do Lists Pomodoro and Timers Screenshots Stopwatch and Alarms Blocklist and Focus Mode Chill Out mode (for when you don't want to worry about having your windows stolen) Cross-computer syncing (via Steam) A Little Spice You won’t get away with slacking on your Operator’s watch: Lily has been known to give her input on ALL of your activities. Keep your important windows out of her reach, and let her help you stay productive! Or else. Uses your desktop as her personal playground- climbing, swinging, and sneaking around as she pleases Window destruction (at your command) Window theft (at your peril- better not get distracted doomscrolling!) Comments on your activities (little raccoon, big personality) Hidden minigame(s) Shimeji-inspired, but better! (actual functionality!) Note that no AI is being used- our Operators value your privacy and the environment, just like we do.
