IDLECRAFT

A Minecraft-themed idle miner you play by hovering.

No clicking, no grinding menus. Point your cursor, mine everything under it, and grow your run deeper every time. Build 1 is playable now; combat, night & prestige are coming to the Steam version.


One rule: hover to mine

Everything in IdleCraft runs on the same simple loop.

  • Hover-to-Mine: Your cursor is the pickaxe. Hover an area and everything under it gets struck automatically: surface first, block underneath next. Leave it parked and it keeps digging.
  • Run-Based Loop: Runs end when your hunger runs out, never a death, just a soft cash-out. Bank your XP, upgrade, and drop into a longer, deeper run. Every ending is a reward screen.
  • Skill Tree: Spend XP on a chunky node tree to unlock tools and ores: wood → stone → iron. Bigger cursor, deeper hunger, faster tools. Each node quietly rewrites your next run.
  • Evolving Board: A fresh isometric board generates every run. As you unlock new ores they flow into the spawn table, so the world grows richer and denser the further you get.

Straight from the mine

The board: dirt, stone, iron & wood, generated fresh each run.


The skill tree: spend XP between runs to unlock what's next.
