A downloadable backlog

An idle cozy typing game about accumulation, pressure, and the cost of neglect.

Description

Letters fall endlessly from above. Ignore them for too long, and they begin merging into larger, heavier stacks i.e. problems for your future self. What starts as a simple typing game slowly becomes a fight against overwhelming accumulation.

TYPE matching keys to destroy the Letters and survive the growing capture, as the screen slowly fills with your unfinished backlog.

Built around the theme “Everything Has a Cost”, every power-up helps you survive temporarily while also changing the flow of the game.

Power Ups

  • BOMB - Clears everything on the screen but you don't gain any coins.
  • FREEZE - Slows down time for 5s, only delay the inevitable.
  • MERGE - Merges same letters into massive blocks. Can create massive rewards… or impossible problems.

Small problems become large ones. Delayed problems become overwhelming ones.

How to Play

  • Press the matching keyboard key to destroy the falling Letters.
  • When identical letters collide, they merge into a bigger stack.
  • Bigger stacks require more key presses to destroy.
  • Rare Scrabble letters give higher scores.
  • Prevent the screen from filling up. 

How long can you keep things under control?


Every ignored rating has a cost.
