Credits
Credits are what a build spends while it works. You are never charged a flat fee for a world — you are charged for the work that actually went into it.
400
for a full build
That is the most a build can spend, not what it usually costs. The rest comes back when it finishes, and a build that doesn’t come out is free.

Blue Line Stadium
built for 247 credits · 24 plays
Full build
up to 400A proper little game
A world with a goal, a few things to master, and somewhere worth exploring.
Actually, so far: around 225 credits and about 10 minutes, across 8 of these. The busiest ran to 520.
Rink to Riches
built for 700 credits · 26 plays
Go deep
up to 800More detail, more to master
A bigger world with layered mechanics, more to discover, and a lot more care in how it looks.
Actually, so far: around 732 credits and about 26 minutes, across 4 of these. The busiest ran to 974.
Trickshot Crew
built for 2000 credits · 51 plays
Full game
up to 2000The whole thing, not a slice of it
A game somebody could sit down with for an evening: several systems that feed each other, a world with real places in it, and enough progression that the end feels earned.
Changing one
up to 300An edit to a world you already made
Reword the goal, retune the difficulty, swap the art, fix the thing that annoyed you. It starts from the game you have rather than building a new one, which is why it costs so much less.
Actually, so far: around 54 credits and about 4 minutes, across 7 of these. The busiest ran to 74.
How the money works
- A ceiling, not a price
- When a build starts we hold its ceiling so it can never overspend. That hold is not a charge.
- You get the rest back
- The moment it finishes, everything the build didn’t spend returns to your balance. You can watch it land in the activity list below.
- A failed build costs nothing
- Not a reduced amount — nothing. If a world doesn’t come out, the entire hold is returned and you are free to try again.
- Credits never expire
- No monthly burn, nothing to use up before a date. They sit there until you build something.
