• Upgrade Overhaul - 12 May 2026

  Hi all! PlinkIdle is back with some major updates and changes.We have a new designer on the team! Dan's amazing, and he's already brought a wonderful fresh perspective to PlinkIdle. We've been collaborating closely on some exciting changes, and every day it feels like the game is growing into something even more special.Upgrades have gotten the biggest pass for this update.Cooldown SkillsAnything with a cooldown is now a Skill, and Skills are free instead of having a flat cost. They no longer sit in the upgrade list; their buttons are super simple and pinned above the drop button so you won’t miss them when they become available.Pegs!Pegs are now pinned to their own widget and spread out very differently. Instead of a random peg upgrading at any point, pegs unlock new colors (tiers) as you progress through the game. They will also cost different currencies as the game progresses.Drop Zo…

• PlinkIdle Demo Update - 30 March 2026

  We finally got that ball rarity reset bug fixed. You can now safely change stages without losing your ball rarity investment!The UI will no longer break (app version, not web version) when the window is resized, or when playing on a large monitor.Pegs no longer give infinite coins if you trap balls. Just a few boops and they stop giving coins to a ball that is trapped.There should no longer be any issue hitting the Drop Button. Some people were having trouble clicking it.

Official PlinkIdle Steam Playtest Trailer: Head over and enter PlinkIdle Playtest today!Is that it, though?We sure hope not. The biggest next feedback we'd like to address is the same-ness of the stages. We have ideas, but the stuff above was more urgent. We're hoping that we can soon add mechanics like:Special temporary stages (like the treasure ship in mario 3).Stage mechanics in several or all stages, like...things are slower and frozen in winter, and you can use heat to thaw it. Gravity is weird in space, so you can invest in gravity to fix it. Things like that.More exciting ball and peg variety.Collectibles.Let us know if there are any specific things you'd love to see in the game.How can we Suppor…

• PlinkIdle Design Updates in the Works - 29 November 2025

  Currency ChangesThere are now two forms of currency, instead of just one. Formerly (and in the current itch build), you can only spend coins on upgrades. With our next update, you can also spend balls. Some upgrades are stage based and cost balls, and other upgrades are global and cost coins.Some examples:Costs Balls, resets each stageCosts Coins, and investments are permanentAuto Drops and their cooldowns Peg upgrades Multiball TriggerManual Drop Cooldown Ball Rarity GoldCoin boosts Ball/Coin multipliers Disco Ball chance Cards Instead of Wheel The wheel will still be there to add a random chance element as an extra reward for achievements and prestige. But progressing through stages will now offer a "choose your reward" moment where you pick from up to 3 buffs. The buffs now have a varied wide variety of rarity (common-to-legendary) as well -- so if you're lucky, you'll get a legendar…

We have Golden Cookie-like buffs.🪩 Check out the trailer here: Join PlinkIdle Playtest TeamWe need honest feedback from real people wo resonate with incremental games so we will…

• New PlinkIdle Design to Address Balance Issues - 24 October 2025

  General UpdatePlinkIdle’s development is rolling along!We’ve been putting together a new build for web, which will likely serve as the teaser/demo version for Steam later on. This one is shorter and meant to showcase the game’s vibe, rather than provide the full hours-long experience.Our current “big build” (the one with many hours of gameplay) has been super useful for testing, but as folks on itch pointed out, it’s also very imbalanced. Coins flood in, the balance falls apart, and progression collapses after just a couple of hours. Painful to see, but also incredibly helpful, because it clarifies what needs to change. My current priority is to address that.What We're DesigningThe core idea that we're exploring now is splitting apart Stage-based upgrades and Global Upgrades. This will ensure that players have to earn some ball currency before they can really invest, rather than carryin…
