Virtual Cottage is a super cute, steam powered study timer and virtual study buddy that will allow you to stay on task while looking at a super clean and satisfying virtual screensaver that isn't too distracting. 

Note: You will need to install Steam to use this. (I am not a gamer, so I don't use it).
