Funny Cursor

If you want to make Windows look like a personal virtual space, you can customize it quite decently with the variety of features it packs by default in this regard. However, third-party applications provide even more variety, and Funny Cursor is a suitable example of such customization options.

As the name suggests, the main target of the application is your mouse pointer, and you notice something different about it right after you run the it. Although most individuals are tempted to disregard it because of the title, note that it’s not so funny, but rather fun, and is really worth a shot.

If you just stare at it after it got changed, then the first impression can leave a bit more to be desired. Moving it is where the fun starts, because the application's core function is to make the pointer actually point in the direction you’re moving it. Effects are pretty neat, and although it can get a bit shaky, you can see that a decent amount of effort was put in the design process.

All this time, the application quietly sits in the system tray. Opening it brings up a compact main window with some options you can manage. There are two default themes, one for the original size, and one that makes the cursor even smaller. You can make the application run at startup to benefit from this fun enhancement without having to run the executable each time.

Moreover, the application doesn’t only change your normal pointer, and you can even pick those to enhance. As such, you can make app starting, busy, no, help arrow, hand point, precision select, and text select cursor follow your movement.

On the other hand, it needs a bit of getting used to since a sudden stop can change pointing direction, thus create a bit of confusion regarding the actual area of impact for mouse clicks. When you get the hang of it, you can combine it with different default Windows options, such as trail, for even more effects.

On an ending note, Funny Cursor is one of those small enhancements you need to try out at least once, or in case you’re too bored to do anything else. It doesn’t affect the system in any way, and even though it can take some getting used to, the quality and variety of cursors make it live up to expectations.
