Waste Your Time
Released 16 October 2026 · PC · Casual, Indie, Simulation
Congratulations, you bought a timer. It counts every second you keep the window open, across every session, forever. Minimize it and time stops. No levels, no goals, no ending: just a number that grows while your productivity does the opposite. Clock faces and backgrounds, plus a leaderboard.
Story
Congratulations on your purchase! You just paid for a timer. There's a free one on your phone, but it wasn't packaged this beautifully. What's here A timer. It runs. That's where the list of features ends. I honestly tried to think of something else, but then I asked myself: why? There are no levels. No plot either, unless you count your life, which meanwhile continues somewhere outside the screen. There's no goal either, but since you bought a timer, that's unlikely to be a problem for you. You can watch for ten seconds, you can watch for ten years. The game is in no hurry. That's the only thing it knows how to do. Five stages The developer guarantees you'll go through all of them. I can't guarantee anything beyond that. Denial. "There's no way this is just a timer." It is. Anger. "I paid for THIS?" Yes. And I'm sincerely grateful to you. Bargaining. "Maybe if I minimize the window, time will go faster?" It won't. I checked — I had plenty of free time. Depression. "What am I even doing with my life?" Good question. The timer doesn't know either, but at least it's counting. Acceptance. You just watch the numbers. This might be the best thing that's happened to...

Seconds turn into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days you won't even remember. There's no ceiling, no ending, and unlike many games, we honestly say so...
