Overview
Googly X Uchiha puts a pair of animated eyes in your macOS menu bar that track your cursor in real time. It's part desktop toy, part conversation starter — and surprisingly delightful to use every day.
The app features 17 eye styles ranging from classic procedurally-drawn googly eyes to detailed Sharingan and Rinnegan designs from the Naruto anime universe. Each style is rendered using Core Graphics at native resolution, and the eyes follow your cursor at a smooth 60 FPS.

- Step 2: Pick a style — Right-click the menu bar eyes to choose from 17 eye styles
- Step 3: Enjoy — Eyes follow your cursor everywhere, blink on click, and spin on command
