Get Mouse X on Steam (Free Demo) $2.99 once · every Workshop skin included · Windows 10 & 11 View this skin on the Steam Workshop →

A little pixel spiral by LiverYT that sits where your normal arrow used to be. It stays still while you move, then reacts when you click, so you get a small bit of feedback without constant motion on screen. If you like chunky retro sprites more than glossy modern pointers, this one fits nicely. It runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam, which costs $2.99 once, includes every Workshop skin, and has a free demo to try.

How to get it

  1. Install Mouse X from Steam. The free demo works too.
  2. Subscribe to this skin on its Workshop page, or find “swirlthing” in the in-app browser.
  3. Select it in Mouse X and your Windows cursor changes instantly. No hooks, no injection.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the swirlthing 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.
