Shimeji Browser Extension

Play with little shimejis while browsing the web.

Shimeji Browser Extension brings playful, animated characters called shimejis to your browsing experience. These little desktop buddies can walk, crawl, jump, and interact with elements on any webpage, adding a fun and engaging twist to your internet usage. You can pick them up with your mouse pointer, drag them around, and drop them anywhere on the page. Each shimeji character features unique behaviors, including rare animations and the ability to throw page elements with realistic inertia. Version 2.0 improves their realism, allows unlimited shimejis on screen, and provides easy toggling on or off via the context menu or toolbar button. Compatible with Windows, Mac, and Chrome OS, this extension makes every browsing session enjoyable and lively.
