You were told to wait.
That was a lie.
You Are The Loading Screen is a surreal comedy puzzle adventure where a broken loading screen slowly unravels into an absurd journey through corrupted software, fake operating systems, impossible CAPTCHAs, retro arcade games, and self-aware progress bars.
What starts as a simple loading screen quickly becomes something much stranger.
Wiggle your mouse to "increase loading speed." Survive fake Blue Screens of Death. Close endless pop-up ads. Help a server hamster keep the internet alive. Pass nonsensical verification tests. Refuse aggressive microtransactions. Repair corrupted save files. Navigate system failures that may or may not exist.
And when you finally reach 100%...
the game is only getting started.
Progress beyond the impossible limit as the loading system becomes self-aware and begins fighting back. Every percentage point uncovers new challenges, hidden jokes, unexpected mechanics, and increasingly ridiculous attempts to prevent you from ever reaching the end.
What begins at 0% expands into a massive journey that pushes far beyond 100%.
Each layer introduces new mechanics and surprises:
Fake crashes and system failures
Impossible CAPTCHA challenges
Corrupted operating systems
Pop-up ad invasions
Progress bar politics
Fake software updates
Retro arcade challenges
Puzzle and reaction-based minigames
Take a break from waiting with a collection of classic-inspired arcade games featuring:
Space shooter battles
Asteroid destruction
Virus hunting
Data packet collection
Firewall navigation
Cache cleanup operations
Face a giant corrupted loading monster in a retro arcade boss battle filled with bullet hell attacks, system corruption, and one final 99% surprise.
Read tooltips.

Question every button.
The obvious solution is rarely the correct one.

Packed with hidden jokes, secrets, fake systems, optional interactions, achievements, and unexpected discoveries.

Fake crashes
Fake operating system screens

Nothing dangerous ever happens to your computer.
Probably.
The loading bar says the game is almost ready.
It's lying.
