This page details one or more prototype versions of Cookie Clicker.

So very stubbly.
This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

Cookie Clicker began its legacy in 2013. It started as one of the many "pointless experiments" created by one weirdo known as Orteil. The original version of the game, now known as Cookie Clicker Classic, can still be played here.

The available version of the proto-game has unused HTML code for displaying advertisements. This code was used in an older version of the game, but it was removed when the big update was released.

In the prototype, most of the buildings used low quality stock images. In the final game, all the buildings were revamped with unique pixel art, possibly avoiding potential copyright from their directed owners.

In the prototype, the cookie's sprite looked more simple than it's realistic version.
