The Celestial rebuilt the Space theme from the old Windows 95 Plus pack as an animated pixel art cursor, with little planets, comets, and a spinning cosmic wait animation standing in for the hourglass. It runs live on your desktop through Mouse X on Steam, which costs $2.99 once (free demo available, every Workshop skin included). If you grew up on beige towers and CRT monitors, this one hits the nostalgia hard.

How do I install the Windows 95 Plus: Space 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.
This cursor skin was created and shared by a member of the Mouse X community on the Steam Workshop.
