- Animated cursor skin
Every click sets off a tiny pixel blast. Explode swaps your pointer for a bright cartoon burst that pops in layered rings of yellow, orange, pink, and white, then loops back and does it again. The light colors sit well on pale desktops and pair nicely with pixel art wallpapers. Made by johnson deployer, it runs as a live animated cursor through Mouse X on Steam, so the animation plays wherever your mouse goes.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install the Explode cursor?
Install Mouse X from Steam, then subscribe to the skin on its Workshop page (or inside the app). Mouse X downloads it and you can apply it with one click. No .cur files, no Control Panel digging.
Does it work on Windows 11?
Yes. Mouse X supports Windows 10 and 11, uses very little memory and CPU, and doesn’t hook or inject into games or other apps, so it runs quietly alongside everything else.
Is this cursor free?
The skin itself is free, like everything on the Mouse X Workshop. Mouse X is $2.99 on Steam, and the free demo lets you try custom cursors before buying.
