This one looks like it came straight out of a blank Paint canvas, a rough doodle cursor drawn at 256 by 256 pixels with a looping animation that keeps it wobbling as you move. The creator made it for fun, and it shows. It runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam ($2.99 once, free demo available), and like every Workshop skin it is included with the app. Good pick if you prefer scrappy homemade pixel art over polished icons.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Paint 256 x 256 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.
