Waiting for an Egg

Waiting for an Egg is a pixel-art idle companion about focus, patience and waiting for results. On the Inspiration Farm, your chickens go through long review cycles and generate inspiration on their own. When a chicken lays an Inspiration Egg, you can collect it for Funding.

Build your farm

Spend Funding to expand the coop, which starts with room for three chickens, unlock eight breeds and buy decorations. You can zoom and pan around the farm. Each breed has its own review-cycle length and chance of producing a result, so you can choose the pace of your wait. Chickens have limited inspiration and eventually retire.

Inspiration Eggs come in five result tiers, from Q4 to TOP, with a different value for each tier. A built-in Pomodoro timer lets you manage real-world focus sessions and earn extra Funding. You can also keep tasks and ideas in saved sticky notes and move each note where it fits.

Desktop features

You can move and resize the game window, and the interface scales to fit different desktop layouts.
