Surprised no one has mentioned Cookie Clicker yet, which I think was what inspired notch to write that game: http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/

Notch's game was written in Dart and the source code is simple and elegant:

Candy box [1] was actually the original IIRC, or at least the one that came before the drowning and cookie clicker and was the inspiration for them. Also check out Candy Box 2 [2] which is honestly a full game.

Thanks for effectively killing my productivity with that cookie clicker game.

Reminds me of Vito Acconci's "Theme Song" from 1973: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAf6zKRb1wI

Wait till you try Clicking Bad

Making and selling Meth is surprisingly addicting.

Cookies are stupid, kill monsters instead in Clicker Heroes!

(Once you understand the meta-game and the meta-meta-game, it becomes seriously addicting)

Finally, a use for my triple-click mouse button!

Coolermaster Inferno, by any chance?

For anyone curious...

  Game.ClickCookie(null, 100);

Gives you 100 cookies.

There is no limit to the number you can input.
