Your Mom turns the desktop into a cozy space centered on a gentle mom character. Players can follow her with the mouse, drag her around, rotate the view, and zoom in or out. A right-click opens costume and settings options, while multiple costumes let players change her appearance. The design is less about a conventional role-playing adventure and more about keeping a customizable character close at hand during everyday computer use.
The companion shares space with practical tools for work and study. A customizable Pomodoro timer pairs focus and break periods, while the to-do list supports categorized tasks, priorities, and completion tracking. Reminders can be scheduled for one-time or daily use. For background sound, players can mix ambience such as rain, forests, and cafés, or choose cozy and lo-fi music with favorites, shuffle, and repeat options. These utilities make the game’s desktop format central to its purpose: it is designed to accompany other activities rather than demand continuous attention.
Music also shapes the character’s presentation. Players can choose built-in dances, import VMD files, and connect dances to songs; external music apps can trigger dancing too, though the built-in player takes priority. Motion-aware effects and automatic expressions add liveliness without pulling focus from the desktop.
