Pane Empire – From Dirty Panes to Big Gains

From Dirty Panes to Big Gains

Dunk the sponge. Scrub the grime into foam. Pull the squeegee off the edge – swoosh! – before the soap dries. A cosy pixel-art game about cleaning windows well and fast, and growing a one-bucket business into the city's biggest cleaning company.

A window cleaner in a yellow cap works from a hanging platform on a brick building, the old town and glass towers behind

Start with a bucket. Finish with an empire.

Start with a sponge and your neighbour's kitchen window. Real water, foam and dirt: scrub too dry and it smears, wait too long and streaks appear. Sponge, squeegee, scraper and cloth – switching tools costs precious seconds, and the customer is watching.

Every clean job pays for the next step: better gear, a bike, a company van, a crew that keeps working while you're away, and finally the Pane Bots – robots that clean a whole row of windows for you. Buy out your big rival ShineCorp, share by share.

What you'll do

Cleaning that feels real

Soap bubbles show when a part is ready for the squeegee. Clean edge-wipes, rising sparkle chimes and a shine sweep when a pane is perfect.
Four tools, one clock

Scrape off paint, stickers and bird "presents" – but only on wet glass. Chewing gum and cobwebs need their own tricks; the microfiber cloth polishes away the last smear.
Picky customers pay more

Easygoing, fussy or picky – every customer is shown before you accept, and every rating tells you why. A UV inspection lamp lights up each streak before they find it.
Build your business

Better sponges, channel squeegees, smart buckets, ladders, a bike and a company van. Gadgets like a hose reel and a plastic owl that keeps the pigeons away.
Crews and Pane Bots

Zoom out to the whole building and send crew members and robots to windows. They're fast, but they miss corners – so check their work.
