For years I studied on Study Together servers with a Pomodoro timer running. The timer helped, but on low days nothing pulled me back for "just one more session". Counting minutes wasn't enough. I wanted something to show for them.
So I've been building a focus timer for Windows where your work looks after tiny pets on your taskbar. Your pet naps beside you during a focus round, finished rounds earn coins for its food and toys, and an idle PC earns nothing. There's also a private Friends group that shows who focused most each week.
Focus timers count your minutes but give you no reason to come back tomorrow. Purrminal turns your workday into a small game. Start a focus round and your pet naps on your Windows taskbar. Finished focus earns coins for food, toys and 16 pets to collect, all free to earn. See who focused most this week in a private group with friends. Using Claude Code, OpenCode or Pi? Each session becomes a pet that asks before acting, so you stop juggling terminals. Free for Windows.
