I had never heard of cookie clicker, assumed it was some youtube personality, and was vaguely annoyed at the implication that this imaginary person was somehow responsible for popularizing regular-ass chocolate chip cookies. Having investigated, I’m mystified by how such a “game” accrued any kind of success. I guess I’m flummoxed by the concept of idle games in general. May as well just watch a screensaver.
Anyhow, cookies are great, and easy to make! I like to use parchment paper for mine, but I used to have a silicone baking mat which also worked well. Neither are really necessary, though—just a humble cookie sheet is all you need.
Yeah that game was … A thing. I have very fond memories because it thought me a lot about JavaScript and system clock stuff.
Although I have to damit I also watched the pipe screensaver back in the days for way too long to “find the patterns”.
But on topic: I agree! And I learned a new term - very heard of a “cookie sheet” beforehand. Thank you!
