How currency works
You earn gold while building and spend it in the shop. Streaks multiply the gold you get when you ship a project. Fruits live on as a historical badge of what you've earned.
Gold
The spendable currency. Buy things in the shop.
Fruits
A historical record of what each ship would have earned in fruit. Counted on this page, not spent.
Starfruit
Awarded for extra-fruity ships. Spend to unlock a locked shop item.
Streaks
Show up daily to earn a gold multiplier on every ship.
Your fruit history
Fruit you've earned over your lifetime, automatically converted to gold at ship-approval time. Pure history, no balance to spend.

Fruit tiers
Each project is assigned a fruit based on its type (software or hardware) and complexity level. The fruit determines the project's gold-per-hour rate.

Streak multiplier
Every day you work on a project, that project's streak ticks up by one. When you ship, the project's streak multiplies the gold reward by 1 + (streak × 0.01), so a 30-day streak earns you 1.30x as much gold. Miss a day and the streak resets, so streak freezes from the shop are worth it.
Multiplier is snapshotted at ship time. Long streaks before shipping are worth the wait.
