For Mac and Windows users, this update adds a DNS fallback for users who may be on networks where the game's domain name (idlehacking.com) may trigger filtering due to the word "Hacking". If the game detects a connection failure due to a DNS resolution...

New Player Tutorial/Goals UpdateToday we have launched an overhaul to the tutorial system with the goal of helping new players navigate the game's various systems. Instead of the tutorials mostly being a screen takeover that point the player to various menus and aspects of the game all at once, they now take the form of a series of short goals, each one tackling a single aspect and providing a mor...

We recently helped a user who had issues connecting to the server even though we've had 100% uptime in recent weeks. After going back and forth, we narrowed this problem to the use of a filtered DNS resolver (in this case, 1.1.1.3, Cloudflare's "family friendly" DNS).

Today an update was pushed out to the Windows client, targeting Linux users who are running the game using Steam's Proton compatibility layer. There was an issue with Electron - the wrapper used to turn a browser based game into an application - which caused drop down menus to be rendered under the application window. This behavior has been fixed, and now the game should be fully functional under ...

The Windows, Mac, and Linux clients now present a 'Close Game' button in the bottom right when you activate Windowed Fullscreen mode. Additionally hitting 'Escape' will bring up a menu with a close option. I didn't mean to hold you hostage, browser games just don't normally need a "Close Game" button! This also adds Ctrl +, Ctrl -, and Ctrl 0 (or CMD on Mac) hotkeys to allow zooming the entire int...
