What makes CursorCraft different
Most cursor sites still feel like 2008: pop-ups, bait-and-switch download buttons, and packs that ship a single pointer alongside a folder full of forgotten Bonzi Buddy assets. CursorCraft strips that down to one job — surface high-quality, complete, animated pixel-art cursor packs and tell you exactly how to use them, on every platform.
Beyond the directory, the site doubles as a working reference for shipping custom cursors yourself. The CSS cursor reference covers every keyword and value with copy-paste examples; the game-engine hub has drop-in code for Godot 4, Unity, Unreal 5, Phaser, PixiJS, Three.js, raylib, LOVE2D, SDL2, MonoGame, and PICO-8; the tutorial hub goes deeper with 60 hands-on recipes spanning install, design, packaging, and platform install. Every pack page links to install help and licensing info; every tutorial links to its authoritative external docs.
If you are new to custom cursors, start with the install guide. If you would rather skim packs, the collections page groups everything by era and palette. If you want a vibe, the themes hub aggregates by mood. And if you have a great pack of your own, the contact page takes submissions.
