Baba Friend
A downloadable friend for Windows
This adds a little Baba on your desktop to walk around. You can drag and pet the Baba! Right-click on Baba to view credits, see the settings and exit the program.
The toy supports custom sprites - see the readme.txt file for details! Also remember that if you change the settings, you'll need to close and re-open the program for the changes to take place.

pls fix the bug for windows 11 os cuz i cannot open the exe file
+compatibility mode dosent help too😭
Do you get nothing except for that error when you try to run the game? Where is the program folder located? Could you test placing the Baba Friend folder (with all its contents) on your desktop and running the program from there, in case it's an issue with Windows denying reading access to the game files?
i dragged it to desktop but it still not works (i dragged the folder and the files) maybe this error caused cuz my os is russian, i mean some apps don't support russian symbols, btw i moved the folder to windows C: and it worked, but this time baba just was levitating, and then it fell to nowhere
Righto, sounds like it was a reading issue. Does Baba still not move if you for example open a text editor or some program where the background is just one colour? Can you drag Baba around?
only after i drag baba around he moves, but he just falls in nowhere, maybe its bcuz i have a seelen ui thingy and ur program doesn't see this task bar, and also i noticed that baba is really smal (i cant show the screenshot cuz i deleted the baba friend)
+he's reeeeally slow when he falls (idk if its not a bug)
Baba is fast
Probably frame rate issue, but maybe somebody know how to lower its speed? Baba moved from desktop to laptop and now is quick
Reading "Baba is fast" was funnier than it should have been...
Funny thing: my baba keeps hanging out in the bottom right of my screen when that's the corner (along with top right) that's broken.
is this a shimeji?
nvm it looks like its own thing
why does my baba lose his eyes and i cant throw baba around anymore :( (when he loses his eyes)
he is so cute so tiny cute baby lil baby woo baby white snow leg baby bb baba baby bay bay baybay baybee baybe bebe caca beybey
lul ur cute
Hello Hempuli,
I dont know if ur still reading comments on this little game u made, but if so it would be nice of you to answer a small question of mine. You see, the last week or so i´ve been making a few new sprites for baba (a slime, cause they are cute!) and i´ve run into the problem that i have no idea how to add frames to the animations. I did search online, but nothing came up. Your help would be greatly appreciated, or anyones help honestly.
thanks if anyone even reads this.
Siris
Sadly, the animations are limited to exactly the amount of frames Baba & Keke have due to the way the program Baba Friend was made with handles sprites :(
i see, thanks for telling me! and so quickly!! Btw, if u would like to see the sprites i´d be happy to give them to you. But i havent done this too often, so dont expect too much
Baba is Friend and Cool
I can't pet it?
Can I have help?
Just move from top to bottom several times that happens.

Good boy little silly guy. Thanks!
BABA IS FRIEND
make mac version pleaaase!!!!
How to he remove on desktop?
love this, even though running this via WINE causes the sprites to be all-black… would a native linux version be possible?
what a silly fellow
it keeps giving me this error message whenever i try to open babafriend:
Cannot load kcmouse.mfx This object might need an external program or library not yet installed.
i love it
i don't remember why i got baba or how long i've had baba, but i have them on my computer and i absolutely love them! baba is friend! <3
as a proud baba owner of half a year, i can confirm that baba is in fact, a friend
same

how do i get keke
guys its virus XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD![]()
No, it's not.
pants on fire
ima mess with his settings
i have some questions
1. how to pet baba
2. why cant i find the settings when i right click him?
baba is skrunkly
move your mouse on baba. right click better-
you can use your own sprites.
baba is skrunkly and derp
can we name it
yea... baba
suggestion: would love it if baba could talk! like just a tiny baba saying stuff like "make sure to hydrate and finish youe tasks" would be really awesome :)
although it would be even MORE awesome if the user could edit the text baba says; making mini to do lists or reminders would be fun
works under wine on linux - and the friend gets a little shadow on cinnamon, too :)
having a small issue, though: baba keeps getting stuck in one spot near the bottom-right corner. when dragging baba around, it seems the invisible window isn’t quite the size of my monitor, but the internal coordinates go further.
this is as far as the friend will go:
You could change your wallpaper to have walls where Baba won't go, and include the rule "WALL IS STOP"
that's genius
virus or no virus
no virus
thx
Is there a way to make baba less hyperactive? :o
There's a settings menu to change it
can you add me, jiji, and fofo?
It and Badbad just sitting there like
"well i guess i'll just go **** myself then"
forgot about them lol
This program unironically helps me start my computer.
I have an issue where my fan control software loads faster than the drivers, making me restart my pc 50% of the time. Linking this program to startup delays the start of my pc enough for this not to happen anymore, plus I get a baba friend at start.
10/10 would recommend
MONITOR NOT WITHOUT BABA IS NOT CRASH

BABA IS LITTLE AND SKRUNKLY
baba is so cute!!! I love it It!!!
Is there any way to make Baba bigger?
It's always annoying to have a small baba
You can edit the image files in the toy's data folder, that's pretty much the only way.
BABA IS SMALL
MEOEO IS ANNOYED
