Idle Heartbeat

Life Sim • Minimalist • Introspective

You play as a character stuck in routine: wake up, work, scroll, sleep. The gameplay loop is intentionally repetitive — until tiny cracks begin to form. New dialogue options appear. The soundtrack subtly shifts. Background details change depending on how long you stay in the cycle.

Do you break the routine? Or embrace it?

Idle Heartbeat is a short experimental simulation about modern monotony, digital fatigue, and the quiet fear of standing still while the world moves on.
