What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This product is in development. Game modes and characters are still being added. Community feedback is very useful for the development of the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“This game will be in Early Access until proper platform support is added for Streamlabs, Twitch, and YouTube. Currently, only Twitch integration works. I estimate a final product release date of December, 2021.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“This version will contain a larger base of characters, enemies, modes, and streaming service compatibility.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, the game functions in Single Player Idle RPG Mode, Idle RPG with Twitch integration, and PVP with Twitch integration. In Idle RPG mode, characters wander on their own without audience input. Enemies spawn automatically and coins are collected automatically. Characters level and new characters can be purchased with coins. The integrated modes add in the ability for your audience to spawn in enemies named after them, coins, and even drop in as characters named after them in a PVP mode.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Pricing will remain the same throughout development and after.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community previews and interactions on ratings boards and forums will directly influence development and feature additions. So far, nearly every feature that has been requested so far has been integrated into the game within a week or two. This is a product made for the community and development will reflect that. Some of the best ideas come from the players themselves.”

About This Game

Your desktop is under siege.
Every app you open can become an enemy. Every emote can become a target. Hatch eggs, unlock heroes, and turn your real PC into a live battlefield while you work, play, and stream.

The Desktop has been breached.

Corruption spreads through the Desktop Wastes, the Browser Borderlands, the Task Manager Depths, the System Core, and The Void Kernel. Guided by Sir Cache-a-Lot, the last stable mind left in the machine, you must build a roster strong enough to push back the invasion before the entire system collapses.

StreamSavers Desktop transforms your real desktop into the battlefield. Your heroes fight on top of the screen you already use every day, battling while you browse, game, work, and stream. This is not a separate world hidden behind menus. Your machine is the world. The battle unfolds across the surface of your actual PC in real time.

Open an app, and it can appear in the game as a living enemy carrying its real icon. Go about your day, and the game reacts to your activity using counts only for things like clicks, scrolling, and window swaps, never what you are actually doing on screen. It makes the whole experience feel alive, like your desktop has become a fantasy warzone hiding in plain sight.

Then Twitch joins the fight.

Chat doesn’t just watch in StreamSavers Desktop - it changes the battle. Twitch emotes, BTTV, FFZ, 7TV, and emoji can drop into the overlay as attackable objects your heroes can smash apart. Viewer rewards can trigger Coin Shower, Summon Boss, Team Heal, Gold Rain, Enemy Swarm, Double Coins, Mystery Loot, and Screen Shake, turning every stream into a live event where the audience helps, sabotages, and fuels the chaos.

Behind the hook is a full progression RPG. Hatch from 46 egg variants to unlock heroes from a pool of 256 collectible characters across 7 classes. Expand your roster one hatch at a time, then turn duplicate pulls into Shards that power star-level progression. Unlock a 64-ability Spellbook with 39 spells, 11 specials, 5 passives, and 9 ultimates, then equip 4 active abilities to shape how your team fights.

The loot chase runs deep too. Collect 320 weapon variants, 31 offhands, and 13 projectiles, then salvage gear, reroll perks, merge duplicates, upgrade rarities, socket gems, and enchant your best finds. Whether you love collecting, optimizing builds, or slowly building an unstoppable anti-virus army, there is always another upgrade to chase.

Long-term progression keeps the battle going with 159 quests, daily bounties, 15 achievements, 32 perks, 7 perk synergies, 10 gem types, 5 camp upgrades, and 5 prestige levels. Whether you want a living desktop companion, a deep collection grind, or a stream-powered chaos machine, StreamSavers Desktop keeps your screen alive with action.

Your desktop is no longer where the game starts.
Your desktop is the game.
