Cheers!

  • I figured out how to compile the game again?? - 25 November 2025

    okay so basically I hurt my neck this morning and had a lot of time to think, so I thought, "why not update desktop mark again".just a couple:Bug fixesNew hats/skinsTweaks to minigames: Better snake controls, zoomed out heist minigame, and easier MarcusThat's pretty cool. Seasonal items now work again too, and the unobtainable "tax return" achievement will now be unlocked upon opening the game (as it's unobtainable).If you'd like to see what I actually get up to nowdays, check out "Shenaniguns" here on Steam!I might not return to this project again, but maybe in the future we could finally make mobile mark... desktop mark 2... console mark? VR mark wouldn't have any corners.until next time!!!

  • Update 1.14 - 29 March 2024

    oh hi, Some more skins ???

  • MAJOR UPDATE v1.10 | Desktop Mark is now free with Magic! - 24 October 2023

    oh hi, NOTE: The game was released to Free earlier than I woke up!! Haha Desktop Mark is now free with Magic! Those who have had the game in the past will receive the Magic DLC for free. The merchant couldn't scramble up some mark bucks for your troubles, so I apologise for that. New stuff: 12 new hats! 5 new marks! New Chess minigame New Break-it minigame Magic DLC More magic effects on hats & skins A "suppliers" ticker showing everyone who has Magic A new Mark Card that you can use to show off to your friends New menu theme(s) for Magic A TON of bug fixes!

  • Desktop Mark is becoming FREE with DLC - 17 October 2023

    oh hi, To help bring more people into the realm of Mark, I've decided to make the game free in an upcoming update. This is because, when asking many people, they often said that they would get the game if it was free. Don't worry! Anyone who has the game currently will get the DLC for free (it'll be the same price as the current version), along with an OG badge on your new *card* and 1,000 Mark bucks. This does NOT introduce any micro-transactions. Mark bucks will forever remain a currency in a separate realm to our economy. I'm still working on adding more content to the game, so expect these changes & a ton of new stuff in a week or two. Cheers, coding398

  • v1.03 - 24 September 2023

    oh hi, ESC button redesigned Replaced text image headers Fixed bugs New 'Oh hi' menu Added French, German and Italian Added more coupons Polished store page you're berry welcome ~ mark

    G'day, Desktop Mark has permanently dropped from $2.99 USD to $1.99 USD! Grab a copy of the game now. That's all for today, ta-ta.

  • v1.02 but I forgot to change it, so v1.01 2! - 12 July 2023

    One day after v1.01, we have another update! This time, it would have been v1.02 if I hadn't forgotten to update the version number in-game. That also means that the Worker Cap isn't 70% off today, such a shame. Not that big of a patch this time: Added Turkish language Added Russian language (experimental, UI overflows sometimes) Attempted to fix store tab glitch Fixed one of Eriko's obscure cheats If you're still encountering any issues, please join the official Discord here! That's it until the next time Eriko finds another bug. Cheers! Don't forget to review the game (honestly).

  • Mini-Update v1.01 - 10 July 2023

Short description

Desktop Mark is a simple minigame-centric idler revolving around the silly character of Mark, a smiley that bounces all around your screen. Every so often, Mark hits the corner and prompts you to procrastinate & have some fun with Mark.

About this game

This is Mark. And that's about it. Every time he hits a side of your screen, he rebounds, and speeds up just a little bit . Sometimes, however, he hits the exact corner in a satisfying bounce. That's a signal to stop the work you're supposed to be doing, and play a little game with Mark . Hit the corner? Procrastinate easily with 10 small minigames that are just fun enough to take your mind off your work. From classics like Snake, sneaking through mazes, skydiving, chess and even beating up your brother, Desktop Mark has just what you need to scratch your entertainment itch! Every minigame earns you Mark bucks, which you can then use to customise Mark with over 25 Marks, 40 hats and 10 corner-hit sounds. Make Mark your own, earn achievements and play games. Yeah, that's Desktop Mark. FAQ Does he bounce around your real computer? Yes ! He's always on top and transparent, so you can do anything else whilst he bounces. How often does he hit the corner? Depending on what you've got the acceleration set to, around every 15 minutes . Do I need to have a corner hit to play minigames? Nope! For a small amount of Mark bucks, you can play any minigame at any time, and even profit! How many hours of gameplay will I get? Don't expect hours of content. Depending on how you play, you can have Mark as a simple distraction widget or grind minigames to buy every costume you can.

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026
  • Lowest observed: Free
  • Highest observed: Free

Desktop Mark's USD price history spans from Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is Free, the highest is Free, and the first visible tracked price is Free. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Desktop Mark's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free, from Sep 22, 2026 through Sep 22, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free. The latest run records Free for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: Free
  • Current list price: Free
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Desktop Mark at Free in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
