About This Game

Work as usual. The ranch takes care of itself.

animalbar is a transparent overlay that lives along the bottom edge of your screen, right above the dock or taskbar. It never asks for your attention. While you type, code, write or browse, every keystroke and click drops a coin, and your animals walk over to pick it up. Spend what they gather on eggs, new habitats and upgrades, and the ranch keeps growing while you get your work done.

Features

  • Play while you work – Keyboard and mouse input is the only resource. There are no separate controls to learn.
  • 48 animals to collect – Hatch eggs, fill the collection book, and fuse nine animals of the same grade into one of the next grade. Five grades, from Normal to Legendary.
  • 7 skills – Every animal has one skill that fires when its mana is full: coin magnet, haste, lucky charm, double drop, expedition luck, combo boost and mana aura.
  • 6 habitats – Forest, Ocean, Meadow, Jungle, Fantasy and Hell. Each habitat unlocks its own animals and its own coin skin, and animals that match the habitat gather twice as much.
  • Expeditions – Send animals away on a trip and collect the rewards. The legendary Dragon and Phoenix are found only on expeditions.
  • Combo and Fever – Keep the input flowing to build a combo. Every 500 combo starts a fever show that rains coins across the screen.
  • Naps – Step away and the animals curl up and fall asleep. They wake up when you come back.
  • And more – Placement presets, a wandering merchant, a lottery and a collection book, all inside a little book in the corner of the screen.

Made to stay out of the way

  • Choose the layer: everything behind your windows, only the animals in front, or the whole ranch in front.
  • Scale the game from 70% to 150%, pick the monitor it lives on, and start it with your computer.
  • Original background music and sound effects, muted by default so your meeting stays quiet.
  • Korean and English interface, switchable at any time.

Privacy

animalbar only counts keystrokes and clicks. It never records which keys you press and never sends your input anywhere. Apart from Steam features, the only thing the game sends online is the feedback you choose to submit from the in-game button. On macOS the game asks for the Input Monitoring permission for this reason.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

AnimalBar uses pre-generated content created or adapted with generative AI tools during development:
- Background music and selected jingles and sound effects were generated with Suno, then edited and processed for use in the game.
- Selected pixel-art assets were created or adapted with AI assistance, including sleeping animal sprites, sleep effects, skill icons and UI graphics.
- Some in-game text and translations were prepared with AI assistance.
These assets and texts are prepared in advance and included in the game. AnimalBar does not use generative AI to create content or code during gameplay.
