At the OSAKA INDIE GAMES SUMMIT 2026, developer Dopamine Maker showcased Your Momo, a desktop mascot application featuring a character named Momo. Originally conceived as a side project derived from the studio's horror title Happy Door, the application allows users to interact with a shy girl who appears on their desktop after crash-landing.
The core interaction involves tapping Momo on the rear, which restores color to her character model. Users can also pet her head, resize her using the mouse wheel, or move her to different screen edges. Momo exhibits autonomous behavior, such as drawing on a canvas when left alone, and players can unlock new features, outfits, and hairstyles by completing various missions.
The developer chose this specific character design to focus on a niche, chubby aesthetic while providing a quick, dopamine-inducing interaction for users working at their computers. The studio aims to create games that provide immediate enjoyment, balancing this lighthearted companion project with their ongoing horror game development.
Dopamine Maker plans to release a demo for Your Momo during the upcoming Steam Next Fest. Development is nearing completion, with the studio targeting a release within the current year to support their long-term sustainability as a team.
