A calm focus timer wrapped in a growing koi pond. Spend focused time to develop the pond, collect koi and scenery, and return to a living visual space instead of a conventional score screen.
KoiFocus turns a focus timer into a small living pond. Focus time is the resource: as you work, koi, plants and scenery give the screen more life, so finishing a session leaves you with a visible piece of progress rather than only a number on a timer.
This listing hosts the English browser client locally, including its pond renderer, sprites and sounds. The original KoiFocus site remains the source for account features, cloud synchronization and notifications; none of those are needed to open and use the local pond experience.
How to play KoiFocus
- Open the local page and start a focus session from the main interface.
- Leave the pond running while you work. Focus time drives the growth loop, so the useful action is to stay with the session rather than constantly clicking the screen.
- Tap or click the pond when the interface offers an interaction, and use the session controls to pause, finish or adjust the experience.
- Return between sessions to watch the pond accumulate koi, plants and decorative scenery. Treat the pond as a visual record of focused time rather than a score to optimise.
- Enable browser audio if you want the local ambient and interaction sounds; mute it when the pond is sharing a workspace with other people.
Controls: Start a focus session and let the pond grow while you work. Tap or click the pond and its interface when the local game presents an interaction; use the focus controls and settings to manage the session, sound and view.

Why it's worth your time
KoiFocus uses a gentle game loop: focused work grows a place you can revisit. That makes it closer to a focus companion and idle simulation than a conventional game with levels or a win screen.
The local mirror includes the original full-screen rendering path and the bundled koi, plant, scenery and audio assets, so the pond itself does not depend on loading the original site's front end.
The original app includes account-oriented features. This listing separates those from the local experience: the page is self-hosted, but cloud sync, sign-in and push notifications are not claimed to work through the mirror.
How it was made and where it lives
Hosted on the author's own page. The author publishes as KoiFocus. Original: https://koifocus.com/. The Play button opens a self-hosted local copy of KoiFocus with its bundled English interface, pond renderer, koi sprites and sounds. The original site remains linked for attribution; account sign-in, cloud sync and push notifications are not required for the local pond experience.
