What's in the Full Release

Idyll Isle is a 2D idle island sim that lives on your desktop.

The game runs in a slim, transparent 1920×256 window docked to the bottom of your screen — right above the taskbar. You can scale it to whatever size feels comfortable. No fullscreen, no alt-tabbing. Glance down while you're working and your islanders are already out there — farming, chopping wood, casting lines. Come back from a meeting and there's fresh stock in the warehouse.

Five professions — farmer, woodcutter, fisherman, miner, and chef — each with their own workflow. The current build includes 32 crops, 21 types of fish, 29 minerals, 37 recipes, 6 livestock species, 30 craftable tools, and 16 building types — all still being balanced and expanded as development continues. Start with a single wheat field. Build out a full chain: harvest, process, cook, trade. Repair broken bridges and abandoned railways to open up new parts of the island. Over 200 items to discover.
