About HEI$T
HEI$T is a 3D heist game where you run a small crew of masked robbers and point them at the bank. Every job brings in cash, and the cash goes straight back into making the next robbery bigger.
The loop is short and easy to follow: look after your crew, pull the job, upgrade, then do it again. It plays like a clicker game with a management layer, so your choices are about the crew and what to improve next.
It was made for the Ludum Dare 45 game jam, and the low-poly art, with its bank columns and bills raining down, gives it a bright cartoon look. You can play HEI$T online here, and there's a tutorial on the title screen if you want a walkthrough first.

What to Expect in HEI$T
HEI$T is a jam game, so it's compact. Expect one clear loop rather than a long campaign, with the satisfaction coming from watching each robbery pay out more than the last as your upgrades stack up.
Tips for HEI$T
- Start with the tutorial. It's the fastest way to learn how the crew and upgrades fit together.
- Put early earnings into upgrades instead of sitting on them, so each run pays better than the one before.
- Keep the sound on. The game has its own music, and it sets the mood for a bank job.
- Treat each heist as a test of your last upgrade. If a run pays less than you hoped, change what you buy next time.
- Play HEI$T free on a computer with a mouse for the smoothest control.

HEI$T was made by pataya and mim and released on itch.io for Ludum Dare 45. Laura Nadal handled the art, Louve Hurlante the music and Nicolas Ceriani the code. FunClicker did not create it. We embed the team's own browser build and credit them on this page.
Can I play HEI$T on a Chromebook or phone?
A Chromebook works, since HEI$T runs in a browser tab and plays with the mouse. A phone is a weaker fit, as the game was built for desktop browsers and a mouse. For the best results, play on a laptop or desktop computer with a current browser.
Is HEI$T unblocked at school?
The game needs only a browser tab, with no download, plugin or login. Whether it opens on a school or library network depends on that network's filter, which we do not control. If it loads on your connection, press Play and the crew is ready to go.
What kind of game is HEI$T?
HEI$T mixes a heist theme with clicker and management play. The work is in running your crew, choosing upgrades and keeping the robberies coming, all wrapped in bright low-poly 3D art with masked characters and plenty of flying cash.
Was HEI$T made for a game jam?
Yes. HEI$T was made for Ludum Dare 45, a game jam where entrants build a game within a short, fixed window. That explains its tight scope: one clear loop, a few systems and a distinct look, put together quickly by an artist, a musician and a programmer.
