About

Maggot

Maggot is a tiny pixel-art game that lives on your desktop.

When launched, it opens a small window containing a randomly shaped piece of rotten meat. Flies arrive, lay eggs, and the maggots begin to crawl, breed, die, gather, and slowly form a strange little ecosystem on your screen.

It is not a traditional large-scale game. It is a quiet, unsettling desktop creature that sits in the corner of your monitor and keeps growing while you work, wait, or watch.

It reacts to your PC

Maggot reads basic system status and uses it to affect the behavior of the infestation.

  • High CPU or GPU load may make the maggots more restless.

  • High memory pressure may cause parts of the ecosystem to collapse.

  • When temperature data is available, heat may kill or discolor the maggots.

  • When your system is stable, they continue to spread and reproduce.

A different piece of meat every time

Each time you launch the game, the meat is generated in a different shape. The maggots crawl across the new surface, gather in clusters, and turn every session into a fresh desktop infestation.

A tiny ecosystem on your desktop

Maggot runs in a small draggable window that can sit anywhere on your screen. It stays above your desktop and appears in the taskbar, so you can easily return to it or close it at any time.
