7 itemsAbout the Game
This is Mark.
And that's about it. Every time he hits a side of your screen, he rebounds, and speeds up just a little bit.
Sometimes, however, he hits the exact corner in a satisfying bounce. That's a signal to stop the work you're supposed to be doing, and play a little game with Mark.
Hit the corner? Procrastinate easily with 10 small minigames that are just fun enough to take your mind off your work.
From classics like Snake, sneaking through mazes, skydiving, chess and even beating up your brother, Desktop Mark has just what you need to scratch your entertainment itch!
Every minigame earns you Mark bucks, which you can then use to customise Mark with over 25 Marks, 40 hats and 10 corner-hit sounds.
Make Mark your own, earn achievements and play games. Yeah, that's Desktop Mark.
FAQ
- Does he bounce around your real computer? Yes! He's always on top and transparent, so you can do anything else whilst he bounces.
- How often does he hit the corner? Depending on what you've got the acceleration set to, around every 15 minutes.
- Do I need to have a corner hit to play minigames? Nope! For a small amount of Mark bucks, you can play any minigame at any time, and even profit!
- How many hours of gameplay will I get? Don't expect hours of content. Depending on how you play, you can have Mark as a simple distraction widget or grind minigames to buy every costume you can.
