Timewaster

LukeZaz's self-aware incremental, revived: 'Timewaster: Broken Images Edition', currently unbroken.

by LukeZaz (u/LukeZaz) · 2014 · Web (lzaz.dev)

Timewaster is LukeZaz's self-aware web incremental, historically listed dead in the Ultimate List and now revived: manufacture stock, sell it for money, chase 24 achievements, under the subtitle Broken Images Edition, which the revived hosting makes a joke with layers. It runs at lzaz.dev/timewaster (verified live in an actual browser session: the game booted, stats, tabs and buildings rendered).

What the loop feels like

You manufacture stock, the stock sells for money, and the money manufactures faster. That's Timewaster.

Playing it today

Free at the canonical lzaz.dev home (the old lukezaz.github.io 302s there), with the logo, favicon and a fresh-save capture above. The wiki's historical Web (Down) flag is corrected on the record: dead once, revived, with the Wayback fallback documented should it die again.

The verdict

A self-aware incremental that outlived its own dead-flag: the catalog's quietest resurrection.
