Aetheria Idle is a bite-size love letter to classic skill-grind games. No quests to rush, no energy timers — just pick a skill and watch your character get better.

Train 10 skills from level 1 to 99:

  • Combat: Attack, Strength, Defence, Hitpoints with auto-eat
  • Gathering: Mining, Woodcutting, Fishing, Farming
  • Production: Smithing and Cooking

Everything connects. Mine copper and tin, smelt bronze bars, smith a dagger, equip it from your bank, then idle on goblins. Fish shrimp, cook them for food, and your character will auto-eat in combat. Plant seeds, come back later, harvest for XP.

Features:

  • True idle gameplay — actions repeat automatically
  • 8 hours of offline progress
  • Mastery system — every 10 completions gives +1% speed
  • Bank with 60 slots, equipment tiers from Bronze to Rune
  • 3 dungeons, slayer tasks, pets, astrology bonuses, and a tiny township
  • One HTML file, runs in browser, saves locally — no install, no ads

How to play in 3 steps:

  1. Pick a skill on the left, click an action
  2. Use what you make — cook food, craft gear, equip it
  3. Turn on Auto-Eat and let it run

Perfect for a second monitor or a coffee break. Made as a solo dev experiment.
