CuqueClicker

A parody idle-clicker in your terminal. Like Cookie Clicker — but instead of a cookie you click, it's an ASCII ass you finger.

The name

CuqueClicker is a bilingual pun.

In Brazilian Portuguese, "Cookie Clicker" sounds almost identical to "Cu que clicker" — roughly "the ass that clicks (or gets clicked)". Swap the cookie for a cu (ass), and the whole game follows: you don't click a cookie, you finger a cuque. Every mechanic, upgrade, and achievement is built around that phonetic accident.

Install

Linux / macOS (curl + sh):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flipbit03/cuqueclicker/main/install.sh | sh

Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flipbit03/cuqueclicker/main/install.ps1 | iex

Via Cargo (any platform with Rust):

cargo install cuqueclicker

To update from within an installed build: cuqueclicker self update. This re-runs whichever install path you used the first time (installer script or cargo install --force).

Controls

Key Action
Space / Enter / left-click on the cuque Finger
19, 0 Buy that fingerer
Shift + digit Buy 10
Alt + digit Buy max affordable
t Upgrade tree
p Prestige panel
s Stats panel
a Achievements panel
g Grab active Golden Cuque / powerup (keyboard equivalent of clicking it)
- / + Zoom out / in (mouse scroll also works)
q / Esc Quit (autosaves)

macOS note: the kernel can suspend a backgrounded SSH-only process (or any terminal-only app) after a short idle, which freezes the simulation and stops cuque accrual. The game resumes on input, so you'll never lose progress, but you also won't accumulate cuques while parked. To run continuously through long idle periods, launch under caffeinate:

caffeinate -i cuqueclicker

The -i flag prevents idle sleep without overriding lid-close sleep, so closing the lid still puts the Mac to sleep normally.
