My Currency Clicker
Create your own currency. Decide what backs it. Try not to crash it.
My Currency Clicker is a small browser-based economic simulation where you design a fictional currency and manage its value over time.
You start by naming your currency, choosing its symbol, and deciding what it’s backed by — gold, US dollars, oil, Bitcoin, or nothing at all. Once created, your currency begins with a value of $0 and it’s up to you to grow and stabilize it.
How it works
- Earn Bits by clicking
- Bits represent microscopic economic value
- Invest Bits to strengthen and stabilize your currency
- If your currency is backed by an asset, its value rises and falls as that asset fluctuates
- React to drops, reinforce stability, and try to build a strong exchange rate
All progress is saved locally in your browser using localStorage. No accounts, no servers, no tracking.
Features
- Currency creation (name, symbol, backing)
- Incremental / clicker-based economy
- Asset-backed value simulation
- Investment-based stabilization system
- Fully playable in the browser
- Local save system
- Restart anytime
Notes
This is an early prototype made with pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Balance, pacing, and mechanics are still being refined, and feedback is very welcome.
If you enjoy incremental games, economy simulations, or experimenting with systems, give it a try and let me know what you think.

Although labeled as phone browser compatible, there is no way to scroll downwards and mandatory UI elements are 'under the screen '.
Playing the game on mobile is better by holding your phone vertically. Anyways, there’s a new update that fixed this problem for most of devices.
More is visible, and it might be scaled adequately for some phones, but it's still cutting elements off on mine. (Opening the game forces landscape mode. I agree that portrait is generally the superior option.)
I have a problem that I don’t know how to scale canvas in HTML. But I checked, and the thing that is cut off (not completely) the screen is the leaderboard, which is not required for gameplay.
Anyways, thanks for trying my game and mentioning this problem, I’ll be trying to fix it.
Good luck. This might help :

As is, I have a button to add a bit, and one to reset the game entirely. I chose fiat, if that matters. (Although the reset doesn't let me re decide what to peg the value of my currency to.) No way to spend bits.
Thanks.
