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.

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