If you love deckbuilding roguelikes, this one turns your pointer into a tiny card slinger. Slay the Cursor swaps your regular arrow for animated character sprites that react when you click, and creator SubjectDelta plans to add new characters and cleaner icons over time. It runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam, so the animation plays anywhere on your screen, not just in one app. Fan-made tribute, not an official product.

“Slay the spire at your cursor tips. Will be updated to have new characters and better icons as they are completed.” (SubjectDelta, on the Workshop)

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 “Slay the Cursor” 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 Slay the Cursor 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.
