It Starts With Dust

// THIS IS A PROTOTYPE - FULL SCREEN BETTER // --------------------------------------------- Game progress is saved every minute and when you press ESCAPE / QUIT. --------------------------------------------- This is an idle game about merging identical items to create stronger, rarer, more valuable tiers. Each merge unlocks new upgrades and faster progression. Recruit cats to gather resources, merge items, and keep production running while you focus on optimizing your setup. The game quickly evolves from simple merging into an automation loop driven by scaling numbers and upgrades. Core rule 2 Tier 1 → 1 Tier 2 2 Tier 2 → 1 Tier 3 2 Tier 3 → 1 Tier 4 … and so on. Build the most efficient path to higher tiers and push progression as far as possible. Features Merge-based progression Multiple item tiers Automated cats for collection and merging Economy upgrades and scaling systems Constant unlocks and fast growth Mouse-only controls A small prototype in active development. I'd love your feedback: balance, pacing, ideas, new mechanics, or whatever!Feel free to share how long it took you to reach tier 10.
