I love skill tree clickers like this! 🥰

At first the tree navigation felt a bit strange to me, but damn, it is so convenient! It was a bit annoying that opening the book restarted me from the beginning instead of where I left off. Especially when I was already pretty far along, but that is a minor detail.

Beautiful art style. Drawn with soul. Especially the helpers. Great job! ❤️

Really fun and well-designed little incremental! It pulled me in for a while:)

Nice incremental clicker! I was thrown by the skill tree interface at first, it looked broken with the crease in the book running through the option. I figured it out quickly though. Had a lot of fun playing it! I really enjoyed the peaceful music, too.

A good ol' clicker is always a welcome sight among jam games! A very solid entry. Loved the gnomes! Academia is nuts!

The game is really enjoyable, with great sound effects and music. I also like the idea of choosing between investing in automation and upgrades. Nice game!

Cool incremental game, or better said, "Academia Is Nuts!" The skill tree took a little time to get used to, and maybe adding a small cooldown after each click could help keep the game balanced when using autoclickers. It would also be nice if the arrows in the shop next to the buy buttons were functional. Overall, though, I really enjoyed the game! I love the idea and the graphics. Great job!

The concept and atmosphere are really cool, but consider working on the UX or player comfort, especially menu navigation and the incessant click spam.

I really enjoyed the game! It's a solid incremental game with cozy visuals to boot.

A cute auto clicker game! I love the sfx for the gnomes! Also, did you implement dynamic music? It felt like the music changes along with my inventions. Cool stuff!
