What is CyberIdle?
CyberIdle is a chill yet strategic idle management game where you build a cyberpunk tech empire from the ground up.
The Elevator Pitch
Start with manual labor and gradually automate everything—each milestone making you proud of what you've built. Your empire runs itself and grows while you're away, but your active strategic decisions create dramatic breakthroughs.
Core Fantasy: The Automation Architect
You are the designer of a self-sustaining empire. The fantasy has three intertwined aspects:
- Pride of Creation — Building something that works beautifully on its own
- Strategic Mastery — When you engage, your decisions matter enormously
- Power Ascension — Rising from street-level hacker to digital god to transhuman entity
