CoreBreaker uses a minimalist brick-breaker setup where bouncing orbs autonomously destroy incoming enemy swarms in a corner window. You unlock new cores and expand your skill tree between waves while optionally taking manual control in fullscreen mode. It's designed for passive play during work sessions or active engagement when you want direct involvement.
About this game
A corner screen incremental brick-breaker where bouncing cores destroy endless swarms. Let it run in the corner of your screen while you work or jump into fullscreen and take control yourself. Unlock new Cores, expand your skill tree, survive endless waves.

I bought this game to fidget but I find myself on this game more than I do on my work :p
I highly recommend it; the inventory and levelling up system is so addicting!
This game is simple but really fun. Just leave it run in the corner. Come back. Numbers gone up. Buy stuff. Leave running. Come back and even bigger numbers waiting for you to either leave it running on its own or take control, Satisfying
Hey everyone,Thanks for playing and sharing your honest feedback with us.We just pushed a fresh Quality of Life update live to address some missing features, smooth out the gameplay loop, and give you a few new goals to chase. Patch Notes:"Always on Top" Toggle: You can now turn this off in the settings! The game will no longer hold your desktop hostage when you are trying to focus on other tasks or work.Boss Wave Rebalance: Losing to a boss no longer traps you in an infinite resource drought. Bosses now spawn with 3 rows of regular enemies right in front of them, giving you a proper chance to farm currency, buy upgrades, and bounce back!Dynamic UI Text & Readability: The text in the upgrade menu now automatically adapts to your screen size and how far zoomed in or out you are. No more squinting at tiny numbers.Click Detection & Menu Navigation: We adjusted the UI hitboxes so your clicks actually register exactly when and where they are supposed to. Plus, you can now easily close menus like Options, Stats, and Leaderboards by simply pressing the ESC key.New Achievements: Added a batch of brand-new achievements tied to different core types to give you a great reason to experiment with new builds!Join Our Discord Community!
