Idle Times

Idle Times is a thoughtful desktop companion where Bob quietly files a growing shelf of original illustrated cartoons to an original lo-fi OST.

Settle In With an Original Lo-fi OST

Pressroom Radio features an original lo-fi OST by Robby V and the Paper Boys, with music from The Fine Print, Vol. 1. Choose tracks, save favorites, and keep listening as you move between Full, Mini, and Pet Desk modes.

Keep Bob Company

Set Bob beside your day in a Full Desk, an always-on-top Mini Companion, or a movable Pet Desk. Help Bob whenever you want a small interaction, or let Autopress keep his work moving while a desk is visible. Bob pauses when hidden, so each cartoon is earned while you keep him company.

File a Growing Cartoon Shelf

Start with 78 original illustrated cartoon rewards at launch. Newly filed cartoons land in the Comic Shelf, where you can browse your collection and open crisp local art in a full-size lightbox. Optional source essays can be opened from each filed cartoon.

A New Edition Each Week

New free editions are added every week. Your current queue and filed shelf remain yours as Bob's collection grows.

Made by One Developer

Idle Times is developed and maintained by one independent developer as a cohesive, personal project built to sit quietly alongside your day.
