Shijima
A downloadable desktop toy for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Shijima brings shimeji desktop pets to macOS, Linux and Windows. Throw them around! Give them cookies! Or hold them so they can't do anything. It's up to you. Be careful however, as they may multiply while you aren't looking. Use Shijima to personalize your desktop with characters of your choice, with hundreds (perhaps thousands?) of them already available on the internet.
- Install shimeji directly from zip, rar and 7z archives.
- No need to install Java or any other dependencies. Everything you need is included! No shortcut tricks either.
- Spawn, despawn, install and remove shimeji without restarting Shijima or having to move around files.
- Observe and debug shimeji with the inspector. Useful while making your own shimeji.
Shijima aims to be fully compatible with Shimeji-ee. There may be cases where Shijima behaves differently than Shimeji-ee but these will be fixed as they are discovered.
Note: The shimeji shown in the screenshots do not come bundled with the program. You should install the shimeji you want yourself. The characters displayed here do not belong to Shijima or pixelomer and are only shown to demonstrate the functionality of the program.
Some good places to find shimeji are DeviantArt, Pixiv and Twitter. A default shimeji created by Group Finity is also included with Shijima to get you started.
