A celebration of the variety among idle games, which are sadly often not seen as "real" games. Check out how different the world of idle games can be and play these games or just watch how they play themselves and stare at them.

Cookie Clicker is a game about making an absurd amount of cookies. To help you in this endeavor, you will recruit a wide variety of helpful cookie makers, like friendly Grandmas, Farms, Factories, and otherworldly Portals.

An unusual mix of adventure and idle game. In utter loneliness deep below the surface, it's your task to wait for the awakening of your king... for 400 days.

Just your favorite duck game.

And with that, let us wish you all a Merry Christmas! The holiday update is live and if you are new to the game you have some ducks to meet for a limited time!

My dear duckies,

It's fun to picture our ducks alongside games with bigger budgets and scope.

Even though we're small, we're a strong and caring community. So, why not try the impossible and aim for a nomination in the Steam Awards?

If you're reading this, go ahead and vote for PPDS in the Labor of Love category now!

After all, this year we added:

- A Halloween event
- More ducks with So Many Ducks
- One t-shirt[everpress.com]
- A Birthday party
- A new location in Hippospace Download
- The Multiplayer
- Even more ducks with Duck Addiction
- The opening of TheDoor™

ːsmileduckː

Placid Plastic Duck Simulator is a Labor of Love like no other.

Because it's the love of our entire community.

Dear duckies,

We’re taking part in the War Child UK Armistice Sale!

Between 8-15th November, we’ll donate 40% of every sale of PPDS to War Child UK. Make sure to grab your discounted copy, gift one to a friend or let them know about the sale.

"This year’s Armistice Sale is celebrating peaceful play and highlighting the importance of protecting, educating, and standing up for the rights of children living in war zones. War Child work in the hardest to reach places to support those who are hardest hit, to protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children, when they need them most.

By purchasing a game or DLC during the sale we can help to fund their projects in Ukraine, Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic, Iraq, and Yemen.

War Child will never give up on children affected by conflict."

On a different note, did you know you can now add new duck packs to existing save files? This means you don't have to start a new game next time a DLC comes out!

Just press the + button in your save list and add what you are missing, like so:

Just remember you can add a pack, not remove it.

Until the next update.

PS: Our super hype t-shirt is back online at https://everpress.com/placid-being-placid just in time for the holiday season. If you missed it the first time, here's your second chance to snag one before Christmas comes around!

Fear duckies,

Today we start our scary season celebration!

It will last until November 1st and will grant you 3 free event ducks! A little present for you all who support us and make these additions possible ːpartyduckː

If you want to meet the 3 scary friends, you can't miss the event, so join the party in Infinity Cool!

As usual, the new friends will be up for grabs only for a limited time, but once you get them you'll be able to play with them by selecting the Event ducks at the start of a new game.

For this particular event, I suggest you make sure to play with the base game ducks, for... reasons.

I hope you'll like the Halloween party. Chilling is nicer with the chills ːsteamhappyː

Until next time!

Note: The t-shirt campaign was a success! If you haven't received your tee yet, it should be on its way to you at this very moment. Let us know how you like it!

My dear ducks,

Big news! "So Many Duck" DLC is live! Dive into the pond with 27 new ducks, each bringing a new style if not actions and combos. Your relaxation level just hit the roof.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2579800/Placid_Plastic_Duck_Simulator__So_Many_Ducks/

We named it "So Many Ducks" because it's the 3rd additional duck pack—CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?

Sometimes we wonder how many ducks are out there that we don't even know exist. Will we manage to meet them all eventually? I guess we can only wait and see!
But it feels good to imagine them floating peacefully somewhere, in a place where none of us is watching them.

Until there won't be so many, but too many instead.

Dear duckies,

Were you expecting more ducks? I bet you were. But did you expect such a cool t-shirt to ever see the light? Impossible. Look at this.


The thing is, this beauty hasn't been released just yet, which means I'm still not walking around flaunting my fine taste in fashion, art, and attitude on life. ːcoolduckː

But together, we can change that! You've got 30 days to snag a t-shirt and ensure the success of the campaign so we can start production and shipping.

Here's the link to the campaign: https://everpress.com/placid-being-placid


(Rest assured, Everpress is a trustworthy website. If we don't meet the goal, all purchases will be canceled, and refunds will be issued. No stress, just how we like it.)

Now onto the new DLC.

The new DLC consists in discovering 27 new ducks and it's called So Many Ducks (almost like the unforgettable song Too Many Ducks).

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2579800/Placid_Plastic_Duck_Simulator__So_Many_Ducks/

The release date is in the works, but you know we never stress too much with deadlines and such. When they arrive you'll know it. ːnerdduckː

I once again thank you for supporting the ducks and let me tell you, we have so many things going on right now I wish I could share more. Exciting times ahead. We are going to surprise you.

Dear duckies,

The birthday party event was a success, and we are delighted that so many of you joined us in celebrating one year of Placid Plastic Duck Simulator! ːpartyduckː

Now, it's time to clean up around the pool and return to normalcy.

As we do that, we also want to seize the opportunity to introduce something new—something we promised and something you didn't expect.

1. From now on, as you play in a multiplayer game, you'll be able to spam emojis and let other players know how you feel about that unexpected bump you just received.

Just press the scroll wheel on your mouse and choose the emoji you want. Cool uh? ːcoolduckː

2. Public Lobbies are now a thing. Set it to "public" as you create a room as a host, or click on the magnifying glass when you want to join a room instead. ːsteamhappyː

3. Graphic Settings. Yes, they are here. Set it to low and see how nice the game can be when it's not mining cryptocurrencies. ːmenacingduckː

And that's all for now.

More news, big news, after the month of August. Be ready!

WARNING: OVERLY SENTIMENTAL TEXT BELOW

My dear ducklings,

When we first released the game one year ago, we certainly didn't expect it to receive so much attention. We thought the vision we had was simply too weird to appeal to a vast audience.

We were wrong.

There are many of you, and you understand the spirit of the game very well. Sometimes, you understand it better than us even. You have supported and guided us throughout this whole first year. Every comment, review, screenshot, fan art, fan song, Twitch clip, Discord interaction, and tweet has contributed to the incredible story of this silly game that is not really a game.

PPDS is an indie project we casually dropped in the ocean of Steam as a floating message of love to anyone who would pick it up. And you did pick it up, sending it back to us like a big, sudden wave of love.

Let's recap what that wave has meant:

4 DLCs
2 additional locations
17 new achievements
1 Christmas event
9 special ducks
1 Discord server with 1464 ducks
7,868 reviews
3 console ports
1 open door

Today, we take a moment to celebrate our first year with the ducks!
We do that with 3 new event ducks, a present to show you all our gratitude. Naturally, they won't be available for long, and you must play the game to get them. You can't miss the party.

For you know, if you think about it, this is your birthday too!
