Sill Sticks Launches, Bringing a Lazy Desktop Stick Figure to Life

Sill Sticks, a desktop companion application centered on a stick figure named Bota, launched on July 20, 2026, according to a Steam community announcement from developer SQOOL Kato.

The premise is deliberately low-key: Bota is described as a "lazy little stick figure" who lives on the player's desktop, with the announcement framing the experience around "easygoing days."

What's included

• The base game features Bota as a desktop companion
• Paid DLC allows players to change Bota's appearance
• Additional DLC adds more stick figures to keep Bota company
• Both DLC offerings are available at a discount until August 3
• A bundle combining both DLC pieces is offered as the more economical option

The announcement is brief and the source material thin, so specifics around pricing, the number of additional characters, or customization depth remain unaddressed here.

For players drawn to undemanding desktop companions, Sill Sticks appears to be a gentle addition to the genre — the discount window closes August 3 for those considering the DLC.
