Yes that’s right, I’ve finally made a new ghost after all this time! This is a lovely Elsen from the hit RPG Maker game OFF, and he’ll be sitting on your desktop!
Unlike my previous ghost Dusk and Dawn, Elsen here is not as passive. He has some needs to be met, like keeping his stress low and his sugar levels high so he doesn’t become Burnt! To do this, you’ll be gaining Credits through various means and buying some meat and sugar, along with some other fun stuff! However, if that’s all too much for you, Elsen has a pause feature that allows you to play him passively.
HOW TO DOWNLOAD:
- First, download the SSP here. Just click the first download button. It’ll be a Japanese neko girl, and they’ll prolly jabber on a bit, but as long as they’re up and running, you’re set!
- Second, download the Elsen’s .NAR here! Drag and drop that .NAR file onto the neko girl, and she’ll start installing it. Once the ReadMe pops up, you’ll know it’s done! You’ll also want to download the Elsen’s balloon here.
- Alternatively, you can go to the Elsen’s little page here, where both of those are and some more information on the Elsen can be found.
- Third, right-click the neko girl and go to “Change Ghost”, and click Elsen. Now you officially have the ghost!
I’ve been working on Elsen for a long time, and there were so many things I wanted to add or improve on but couldn’t find the time nor feedback, so some things may seem a bit sloppy. If you have any feedback or bug reports, please do not hesitate to contact me through either here or other means!
Now for some thank yous:
@zarla-s - For making the SSP Ghost template and being a huge influence on English ghost making
@fullbottles - For making the OFF Balloon for their Zacharie & Pablo ghost, and just being a great influence for me making Elsen!
And the Ukagaka Dream Team Discord Server - if I didn’t have you guys, there’d be no way in hell my dear Elsen would’ve been made. You guys are awesome!!
PRESENTING: Bluestick McCoolGuy – a super cool ghost for the SSP program.

ABOUT
--------------
Bluestick is a little desktop pal (or, "ghost/ukagaka," rather) for your pc that can do stuff! :)
"oh, what can he do?" very cool that you asked! he can talk with you, check your email, remind you of stuff, and more!
i have a lot more planned for my glorious son, but will update him when i get around to it (and have enough time/power to do so). he's currently on version 1.0 as of Feb 17th 2026.
”what's SSP?“ a super cool program that allows Bluestick and other ghosts to run!
”can SSP run on ___?“ depends! SSP is intended for Windows, but Bluestick for one was coded and ran entirely on a Macbook via the use of Wine! i'm not sure about other operating systems such as Linux, and even less sure about the possibility of running SSP or similar programs on mobile.
”how do i make my own?“ i'm not really good at explaining things, but he was made with the help of the tutorial and template at https://www.ashido.com/ukagaka/ ! it's really helpful and clear and he wouldn't exist without it! :)
”do you have any lore?“ nope! not yet. not really, anyways.
"how is an ukagaka different from a shimeji?" um. do more stuff methinks. perchance.
--------------
download is here at github. Strawpage is this link. for contact or concerns DM me here on Tumblr, the Ukagaka Dream Team Forum, leave an issue report on Github, or leave a Strawpage gimmick. installation instructions for both SSP and Bluestick's files is on the Github's page.

A DUSK ‘N DAWN SSP GHOST UPDATE HAS ARRIVED! To update them, either ask Dawn to update for you, or right-click Dusk and click the Update option.
This update is mainly for some fixes and a couple more additions. I’m slowly working on more ghost communications, but my motivation has been lacking, to say the least. Plus, I’m working on getting a new ghost ready for the public! So I apologize for the lack of anything substantial. I also apologize for the constant updates - I usually wait until I have something big added, but not only did I want to get the new medication reminder out, but a couple bugs needed to be fixed as well.
-You can now have 2 medication reminders at once! Simply go to the config menu for it and click “Add another reminder”, and choose its schedule. I had to configure SO MUCH just for this to work, so I pray people actually use it. I don’t think I’ll add a third, since I can’t imagine you’d need 3 separate schedules for oral medications.
- Dusk and Dawn can now talk to other ghosts! As of now, it’s not very complex, and there many even be instances where they’ll go into a infinite loop of hellos. Once I get more ghosts for them to talk to, I’ll be sure to let everyone know!
- When letting Dusk or Night name you, you can now add a title or honourific to it. A minor detail, but perhaps one someone may appreciate.
- Fixed a minor problem with switching between Dusk/Dawn and Night/Shade and their dress-up items. I don’t think it was actually affecting anyone, but it’s best to make sure.
- Fixed a bug where music files you dropped were not being added to any playlist. Once again, big shout out and thank you to Levidre for being the master of this code.
- And of course, added another dress-up item, this time for Dusk. Can never have enough of those.
As always, thank you to any and all who use and enjoy the Dusk and Dawn SSP Ghost! I know it’s not as popular as the UNDERTALE ones out there, but I’m always happy to hear people enjoying my silly lil bats.
ANOTHER DUSK ‘N DAWN SSP GHOST UPDATE HAS ARRIVED! To update them, either ask Dawn to update for you, or right-click Dusk and click the Update option.
It’s unusual for me to update them so quickly after the last, but I figured I might as well get out what I got now since I gotta post their new balloon anyway.
- So as I said, Dusk and Dawn finally have their own balloon! It’s nothing major and it’s kinda basic, but it’s something. If you’d like to have their balloon, you can simply download it here. Just drag the .zip over to them and they’ll install it there.
- Fixed a pretty major bug where Dusk wouldn’t load properly for some reason. Have no idea what caused it - but hopefully that shouldn’t happen anymore!
- Fixed the problem where Dusk and Dawn wouldn’t tell you that the update successfully finished.
- Gave Night and Shade a couple more dress up options! Also some more basic dialogue.
So not the most important update, but it’s a bit more content. Next update (at least, announced update) will probably be something more major. As always, if you spot a bug, PLEASE let me know so I can fix it ASAP!
It ain’t Flowey like I promised years back, but my problem was that I was trying to do so much with such little knowledge. So? We’re starting small with these two fellas!
SSP Ghosts, or Ukagakas, are these nice lil desktop buddies that sit there and talk! You can interact with ‘em with your mouse and open up menus that have more stuff in them to do. These two lil ones aren’t much, but that doesn’t mean they can’t do anything! They’ll chat amongst each other, play a few games with ya, give some support, and you can even dress them up with a few things!
HOW TO DOWNLOAD THEM:
- First, download the SSP here. Just click the first download button. It’ll be a Japanese neko girl, and they’ll prolly jabber on a bit, but as long as they’re up and running, you’re set!
- Second, download Dusk and Dawn’s .NAR here! Drag and drop that .NAR file onto the neko girl, and she’ll start installing it. Once the ReadMe pops up, you’ll know it’s done!
- Third, right-click the neko girl and go to “Change Ghost”, and click Dusk_Dawn. Now you officially have the ghost! The dialogue balloon can be changed, though I’ve not made my own yet. I’ve been using this balloon made by @zarla-s, so feel free to use that.
And you should be set! Do note that because this is a first release, some things may be a bit buggy. In that case, do not hesitate to inform me! And if you have troubles with the download, also let me know! I’ll try and fix it ASAP.
Lastly, big thanks to @zarla-s for making the Ghost Template which allowed me to even make this ghost at all! Plus their very own ghosts have helped me learn a lot about the inner workings of SSP Ghosts, so please do check out their stuff when y’can!
