About Widget Idle

Always playing: your desktop is Widget Idle's controller! Widget Idle turns everything you already do on your computer into game input. Every click, every keypress, every movement of your mouse comes with a little incremental sense of accomplishment. Widget Idle gives every click a little extra oomph. Whether you're chatting, editing photos, or writing (copy-pasting) code, you're always growing your economy. Neat! We take particular care in how the game collects and uses data. It only reads the bare minimum it needs to run, and never stores or uploads the context, content or intent of anything you do. (See the appendix)Satisfying animations and gameplay!

We carefully designed every interaction you'll have in Widget Idle. From big feature unlocks to the smallest page switch, we hope these animations and sounds are ones you'll never want to put down! Ever-evolving desktop companions! Collect 16 adorable desktop widgets and unlock their expected, and unexpected, new features!(We are not responsible if you get too attached.)Gotta have them all! Explore hidden (and not-so-hidden) mechanics, and collect and curate 100+ unique achievement stamps. (Supports Steam's new achievement system at launch!)Display them proudly, show them off to your friends, and tell them just how productive you've been.

Customize your experience! Widget Idle is a carefully designed and curated experience. That said, we know everyone enjoys games in their own way.…
