Orteil is some European dude who likes to make toys and games out of javascript.
In this task he is aided by Opti, his best friend and roommate.
Cookie Clicker (2013)
Probably what we're most well-known for.
The archetypal idle game where you click cookies and deal with deranged grandmothers.
Has been described as dangerously addictive.
Cookie Clicker classic (2013)
The simple, original version where it all started.
Click on a big cookie for hours of mindless fun!
(We won't judge, promise.)
Neverending Legacy (2017)
[Alpha]
Half-idle game, half-strategy game; lead your people from a tribe of starving cavemen to a thriving civilization!
Nested (2011)
A strange universe-expanding game that's been described as "whoah dude".
Possibly Orteil's favorite thing he's ever made.
Explore procedural galaxies, land on unknown planets, read the thoughts of every living thing, rummage through people's pockets, and more!
Genesis (2010)
A peaceful game about combining elements. You start with earth, water, fire and air, and end up with rainbows and butterflies and such.
A bit bad, a bit unfinished.
Requires Flash. Hosted on Newgrounds.com.
Murder Games (2018)
Automated survival simulator.
Create a cast of characters, then watch them betray and slaughter each other round after round until one team or one person survives.
RandomGen (2014)
Create and share random generators using a simple syntax.
The possibilities are limitless!
Idle Game Maker (2017)
A site where you can make your own idle games just by writing a text file.
Comes with copious documentation.
May be used to create other kinds of games if you're creative.
Video Game Generator (2012)
Generates a random idea for a game, for devs struggling with writer's block.
Untick the "Sanity" box to get much less predictable results.
Turtle Toy (2011)
A simple implementation of L-systems.
Generate and create wacky fractal doohickeys.
Life (2012)
A simple implementation of Conway's Game of Life, featuring custom rules and random rule generation.
TaskMaster (2016)
A tool meant to remind you to get things done at regular intervals.
Cookies2Cash (2014)
Turn your hard-earned cookies into sparkling gold coins with this ultimately pointless cash dispenser.
Neverending Legacy (old) (2015)
An older prototype for Neverending Legacy. Broken and filled with interesting bugs, such as infinite skeletons.
Idle Game Maker (old) (2013)
An old, buggy prototype of Idle Game Maker that was never officially released.
Some people still managed to make really neat things with it.
Tea Party (2011)
A mindless, meandering text adventure full of dead-ends.
PretendEverything (2011)
You can be anything!
As long as its experience can be reduced to one line of text and a couple buttons.
Dreamlog (2013)
The result of turning a dream I had into a little adventure.
Features rabbits, fishing, and strange museums.
Dungeon Generator (2013)
Originally made for a minigame in Cookie Clicker, this is now just a neat if very basic dungeon generator.
MusicGen (2012)
An experiment in generating procedural audio.
You get a new little tune everytime you refresh the page.
WebGL test (2016)
Testing procedural 3D models and shaders. I thought this looked neat.
My Tumblr
This is where I tend to post most often.
Expect game dev updates, pet pictures, bad memes and the occasional chill tune.
My Twitter
Updated from time to time with game update announcements and dumb jokes.
My DeviantArt
Not really updated anymore, but contains a bunch of my old art and a couple Flash games.
My Pixel Joint
From time to time I'll upload some of my pixel art on there.
My filters on Filter Forge
Filter Forge is a node-based interface for creating image filters and generating textures, and basically my favorite software ever.
