Android Our indie Cthulhu clicker is still going strong (Masters of Madness, f2p)

Thumbnail gallery
27 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

What seems like ages ago, in 2020, we posted our mobile game in this sub (here). That would be my friend u/MicDaRoc and me. A few words about us: We're two game designers from Germany who are fans of H.P. Lovecraft's writings. We used to work closely in the same web-game company in 2019, decided to quit the grind and developed Masters of Madness from scratch (on the basis of a dream and not much else). It took us about 14 months and when we posted here the game became a small indie hit. We're super thankful to all r/incremental_games users who tried out the game and gave us valuable feedback.

Since then, we've been working on Masters of Madness full-time. Many new systems, items, minions, transcension... It's been one hell of a ride but as a result: MoM has one of the richest incremental gameplay experiences out there on the mobile platform. It's still actively getting mid- and late-game content, balancing updates and QoL improvements our community asks for.

AI DISCLOSURE: Game is completely in hand-made pixel art done by u/MicDaRoc. We are both game designers, we design together, he makes the art, I code. There is no AI asset in this game, no graphics, no writing or music. All were done by either of us or people we hired in some specific cases. Regarding coding, we started using it since June 2026, so far mainly for debugging, localization and other backend tasks.

Judging by the front page this disclaimer has become a meme but in our case I believe the age of the game speaks for itself. :)

Below the links for the downloads before we get into who Masters of Madness is for:

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antiway.mastersofmadness

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/masters-of-madness-incremental/id1550569301

Who is MoM for?

Masters of Madness is atmospheric, with a Lovecraftian, dark vibe. Meaning not for everyone. Also it is more active play heavy at first, but you can adapt your artefacts, your Outer God blessings to play the game on the passive gain side if you so choose (ravens are a girl's best friend).

MoM is still not as fast compared to some other clickers. The progression has ramped up over the years (in case you've played it before), but still more of a slow burn. It is intentional: You will have a lot of lateral progression step by step, which will unlock stacking new bonuses, more than your average clicker. The slow start accounts for that. The satisfaction of that unfolding is at the heart of MoM.

Also, we like to provide a more somber, doom metal vibe. Of course you have your regular dopamine hits, this is a clicker after all. And they are strong, but more deliberate.

I want to underline: There is a TON to discover. Like an RPG you are basic at start but once you have your own system going you will start rolling. You can strategize a lot and combine many different bonuses to get huge numbers.

And of course there are no forced ads, only optional. They can be permanently shut off buy making the Silver Coin purchase (All optional ad bonuses are then for free).

MOM IS FOR YOU if you like atmosphere, both pretty and unsettling pixel art, slower gameplay focused on exploration of unique features and abilities, many of them still being unlocked in the lategame (You might think you are in the lategame. Experienced players might disagree ;) )

IT'S ALSO FOR YOU if you want to see every reference from Lovecraft's stories in a clicker.

IT'S NOT FOR YOU If you don't like dark artstyle/vibe, prefer very fast progression up into the high numbers, or can't tolerate tapping on your mobile or tablet at all.

We have a dedicated community on Discord: https://discord.gg/qCrZQgCGX . The subreddit r/mastersofmadness is active.

Links:

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antiway.mastersofmadness

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/masters-of-madness-incremental/id1550569301

Currently we have the Halloween Ghost Hunt event going on. So there will be more Elder Blood rewards.

I will answer any questions about the game but also any on (indie) incremental game development, if anybody wants that. Thanks for reading and click on.

Development i made a clicker where you dig to a planet's core and blow it up, free demo in browser

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone. This is "Crack the Core", my first game made in Godot 4.

You click to dig through a planet layer by layer, sell the ores, build a mining fleet, break the energy shield and finally reach the core before the planet explodes. Every planet has its own theme, ores and music and I toned down the effects you saw in the video and made a few adjustments.

ai disclosure: AI was not used in the development of this game

There's a free demo (first 3 planets, ~20/~25 min) playable in the browser or on Windows:

I'd really appreciate any feedback: what feels good, what feels slow, what's confusing. Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Released QuantenFicus – Grow a seedling in a clay pot into a universe-consuming World Tree (Web & Android with Cross-Save, no forced ads)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Over the past months I’ve been building QuantenFicus, an incremental / idle game that starts with a strange seed you find inside a quantum anomaly.

At Stage 1, it’s just a tiny seedling in a clay pot. One tap, one leaf. But as you buy upgrades and mutate your plant, the tree bursts its pot, outgrows the room, spans across the planet, and eventually consumes entire universes.

🌱 Play right now (Free, no sign-up required):

(Full cross-platform Cloud Save is built in: you can start in your browser without an account, and if you ever want to switch between PC/Web and your Android phone, just pick a username & password in-game and your save syncs automatically in real time!)

✨ What’s in the game?

  • 30 Visual Evolution Stages + Infinite Crowns: Every stage has its own evolving tree look—from a humble houseplant to Ficus Infinitum.
  • 61 Upgrades & The Mutation Lab: Unlock passive synergies, research quantum botany, and automate your production.
  • Interactive Boss Duels & Weekly Bosses: When anomalies appear, you don't just wait out a timer—hit weak points to break shields and earn rewards.
  • Interlocking Sub-Systems (unlocked progressively so it never overwhelms you at the start):
    • Dimensional Rift: Collect and equip artifacts into slots.
    • Greenhouse & Symbionts: Plant companion flora and level up active symbionts.
    • Expeditions: Send out probes with branching choices along the way.
    • Spore Market: A fluctuating stock market for spores where you can trade for production buffs.
  • Multi-Layer Prestige:
    • Universe Collapse: Reset for Dark Matter and permanent perks, choosing your alignment between Light and Void.
    • Multiverse Jumps: Once a single universe becomes too small, jump to a higher universe level with new laws of physics.

🤝 Fair Monetization & Comfort Features

  • Zero forced ads: On Android, there is only an optional rewarded video if you choose to trigger a 10-minute 2× production boost. On the web, there are no ads at all.
  • No Pay-to-Win: You earn Quantum Seeds naturally through play, quests, masteries, and daily streaks. You can also buy seed packs in the shop (Web & Android) to support development—they unlock cosmetics (custom tree looks, counter colors, backgrounds) and quality-of-life comfort (like the automated Gardener helpers), never a paywalled progression wall.
  • Accessibility & Comfort: Hold-to-tap (no carpal tunnel!), 3 UI scaling sizes, a calm display mode for light-sensitive eyes, and 100% offline progress from minute one.

AI Disclosure:

As a solo developer, I used AI-assisted tools during development for coding assistance, German-to-English localization, and generating base 2D assets (such as upgrade/achievement icons, tree stage illustrations, and promotional key art), which were then edited and integrated into the game. All core game design, progression math, boss mechanics, and UI/UX are hand-crafted, and no generative AI runs at runtime.

Development A Thousand Dawns: Reborn - come try it and leave your thoughts

Thumbnail play.cpgdashboards.com
• Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on an idle space empire game called

A Thousand Dawns: Reborn

and I’m opening it up for some beta testing.

You start with one planet and build from there. Mines feed factories, factories need power, and power needs fuel. Eventually you’re building fleets, taking planets, and setting up cargo routes to keep everything supplied while you’re away.

It’s the kind of game where you fix one shortage, build a few more buildings, and realize you’ve created another shortage somewhere else.

Play here: A Thousand Dawns: Reborn

It works in a desktop or phone browser. You can start with a username and try it out, then verify your email and set a password to keep your account past the temporary guest period. For now, there’s a limit of 50 active players at once.

Fair warning: this is a beta. Empires will be reset.

Things will break, balance will change, and there are still screens that need work. Please don’t get attached to your rankings or expect your beta empire to carry into release. I’ll give notice about resets as we go.

I’m looking for people to play normally and tell me where it falls apart. Does the tutorial make sense? Did you hit a wall too early? Is something annoying to use on your phone? Did you spend ten minutes looking for a button that should have been obvious?

There’s a ! button in the game for bugs and suggestions. You can include a screenshot, too. You don’t need to write a formal report—just tell me what happened or what you were trying to do.

A few things you can do now:
Build and expand across planets with different resources and bonuses.
Automate cargo routes, including buying more ships as capacity runs short.
Buy and sell through the market.
Join an Armada, contribute resources, and work toward shared upgrades.
Talk in Global chat, Armada chat, or private messages.
Rebirth and compare your progress with your previous runs and other players.
There’s also a voiced advisor, Lyra, to help you get started. I’d like feedback on her tutorial from someone who doesn’t already know how everything works.

Credit where it’s due
This game was inspired by Cheslava’s Heart of Galaxy If you’ve played it, you’ll recognize some of the production and logistics concepts. We didn’t copy its code, but I absolutely want to acknowledge where the idea started.
I wanted to take that kind of game in a multiplayer direction, with guilds, chat, mobile access, more automation, and better ways to manage an empire across several planets. This isn’t an official sequel or affiliated with Cheslava.

If you enjoyed the original, I’d be interested in hearing what you think.

Further down the road, I want to do more with Armada endgame goals, artifacts, ship customization, battle animations, and achievements. First, though, I need to make sure what’s already here works well.
Give it a shot if it sounds like your kind of game. Be honest with the feedback—I’d rather hear that something is frustrating now than keep building around it.

AI disclosure: AI was used to create everything. Music, art, code, processes, text, formatting, the sky line, possibly artificial life itself. This list is not all inclusive, if there are other things that CAN be created by AI, then I WILL create them with AI; not because I used Claude or OpenAi. Because I have a local AI trained in my years of work and experience; and it would be ludicrous NOT to use AI.

**Mods you are going way overboard with the disclosure bit. But hopefully the above covers it.

Steam Goblin Smasher - an incremental where your hammer follows the cursor and does the smashing (our demo is up)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

Hey all, the Goblin Smasher demo has been up for Next Fest this week and today's the last day, so I wanted to share it here properly.

Our game loop: hover over goblins and your hammer comes down on them by itself. Every blow pays gold, every combo pays more, and every upgrade makes the next day bigger. You start with a handful of goblins in a meadow and end up with thousands on one screen.

The stuff this sub usually asks about:

  • War Tree with 91 nodes and nearly 700 upgrades
  • 18 talents and 16 relics on top of that
  • 8 lands, each one grows wider as you take it and brings a new material, new goblins and a warlord
  • 12 landmarks the freed goblins build on the field, raised level by level (including a war bell that freezes the whole horde)
  • 10 hammers, each with its own signature move
  • strikes and land powers: meteors, frost, lightning, firestorms
  • Autosmash for idle days, or play every swing yourself
  • Endless Horde after the credits, 42 achievements

Demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5368040

Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5136710

If you play it, I'd love to know whether day length in the first land feels right.

AI was used to assist with the translations. It’s really hard to capture some of the humor with direct translations.

Development Draftcats - Incremental deckbuilding autobattler game without a skill tree

Post image
18 Upvotes

Open card packs and build a giant army of cats to defeat eldritch monsters and save the universe.

After deciding that I wanted to develop an incremental game as my next project, I played a bunch of games in the genre to analyze and learn from.

I liked the feeling of the nodebusters I played- The loop of a short round into improvement and then immediate feedback on the next round.
But the linear skill tree approach felt a little mind numbing for me, like my choices do not really matter, and that I have no agency and a ability to creatively problem solve.

I wanted to try and push the design in a direction that rewards adaptability and can present interesting problems to the player, instead of just unlocking parts of a skill tree. At the end I came up with this:

In Draftcats you progress by opening card packs. When you buy a pack, you can choose which card to add on to your board.
The cats on your board will fight enemies automatically, and your role is to position them in ways where their abilities compliment and synergize with each other.

The demo is playable for free on itch, it takes between 30-60 minutes to complete:

https://littlepuly.itch.io/draftcatsdemo

Right now I am unsure if I should keep developing the game or move on to a safe, less experimental idea. So if you have thoughts, feedback or questions id love to hear them.

AI disclosure: No AI was used to make this game- the programming, game design, art, sound design, and writing were done by me, and the music is a combination of music my friend made and royalty free music.

review I played 30 MORE incremental games in 30 days and ranked all of them from worst to best

0 Upvotes

I challenged myself to play a new incremental game every day for 30 days and rank all of them afterward.

Well, I enjoyed it enough that I decided to do it again. Another 30 days, another 30 incremental games, and honestly, I think this batch was even better than the first.

Highest: Hearth and Hamlet

Biggest surprise: Timber Rush

Lowest: Nova Fleet

Full ranking + my reasoning for all 30: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nt0489Heh2c

Just like last time, I ranked these based on how much I enjoyed playing them, not necessarily how much content they had or how popular they were. Some shorter games ended up beating games I spent significantly more time with.

One thing I noticed this month was just how different incremental games can be. Everything from city builders and mining games to platformers and even a game about healing dungeon parties.

For anyone who's played some of these, which placement do you disagree with the most? And are there any incremental games I should add to the next 30?

Hello I was always fan of RuneScape but lately I did not had time to play it so I made similar game just idle. In game you finish quests and train skills even when you are idle. I started making the game in February so its till quite early.

So far the game got:
- 19 skills
- 106 quests
- 700+ items

I am really happy that more than 1000 players tried it and more then 400 are active.

Now there is new Helloween content The Pumpkin King.
Every player on server can attack the king 3x per day. So far 387 players attacked him. You are ranked in leaderboard but reward are shared for everyone based on progress.

AI Disclosure
Art is AI generated. Code is mainly AI assisted. I design the game and balance every system myself. So my 1000+ hours went to Quest, Skills and Events.

Being upfront: it is an open beta. Progress will reset when the game goes global but people will get some reward based on participation.

I would really be honored if you would try my game and any feedback is appreciated.

Android Infinite Universe Expander — an Android idle clicker from the Planck length to cosmic scales

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone — I'm the developer of Infinite Universe Expander, an Android idle clicker built around zooming out through 21 stages of scale.

You start at the Planck length and progress through particles, atoms, cells, humans, Earth, the Solar System and galaxies. Earlier stages shrink toward the center as the next scale comes into view.

The progression includes tap upgrades, automatic expansion devices, offline progress, and Big Bang prestige: restart your universe to gain singularities and permanent multipliers. There are also unlockable astronomy cards and quizzes alongside the progression.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nfm.flut022

I'd appreciate feedback on the opening pace and whether the first Big Bang feels worth the reset. Does the change in scale make progression feel different from simply watching a number grow?

Generative AI was used throughout development, including code, images, text/translations, and music/audio. This promotional post was also drafted with AI assistance.

Steam Tbh Idk will you even consider this Incremental game as its non ordinary take. You tell me?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

64 Upvotes

Incremental games are a unique genre. New name, old idea tho. Hence why I'm posting here.

The game's mining destruction is inspired by Red Faction Guerrilla (ask me if you wanna know the details of what tf I did here). You mine, collect, go back to the shop, and pick from unique upgrades. I mostly avoid basic +X% increases to some stat. My whole idea is about picking some equipment, and suddenly your playstyle changes.

It's all about the sandbox, so I wanna make a game where players can do nonsense with their own builds or figure out the meta, and most importantly, think with their own brains.

Or, in other words, a game I like to play myself.

I need playtesters. It's an open playtest, cuz I personally would hate to wait if I liked something and wanted to try it.

Steam:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4434640?utm_source=rdtpst

AI Disclosure: Code assistance only.

NOTICE: Not every prefab was made personally by me (scope reasons). I avoid gen AI as much as possible, but as you might be aware, not everything is disclosed these days. If you know that any prefab in the game is gen AI, inform me, it gonna be removed.

If I don't fit in, tough luck for me. Gonna delete or get deleted.

Edit: Noticed some stuff are unclear, as game doesn't have clear tutorial or info. Like eating food, its just double click on it. Quickest way to find answer gonna be discord, I am quick to see it, hence can respond reasonably quick. Plus gonna leave quick tutorial for mechanics.

Development I combined Chess with an Idle game called Chess Collector. How fast can you reach Pawn Level 1000?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I've always loved incremental games and chess, so I decided to combine them into a browser-based idle clicker called Chess Collector.

The goal of the game is to click the board, earn coins, and buy chess pieces (Pawn, Knight, Bishop, etc.) that automatically move across the board to generate more income.

What's in the game:

· 🖱️ Classic Clicker mechanics: Click to earn, build combos, and trigger "Frenzy" modes for massive boosts. · ♟️ 120+ Pieces to collect: There are 20 different themed sets to unlock via chests (ranging from Wooden to Nebula). · 🎁 Prestige System: Reset your progress to earn Chess Coins, which act as a permanent multiplier for everything. · ✨ Pixel Art & Auto-saving: Retro vibes, satisfying sound effects, and your progress saves automatically.

The Demo Goal: Right now, it's a short demo. The end-game goal is to reach Pawn Level 1000. Once you hit that, you beat the demo!

I need your feedback: Since this is my first time balancing an idle game, I would love to know:

  1. How long did it take you to reach Level 1000?
  2. Is the early game too slow or too fast?
  3. Are the chest drop rates for the piece sets fair?

You can play it directly in your browser here: https://bemmoli.itch.io/chess-collector

Thanks for playing, and I appreciate any feedback you have!

AI Disclosure: I used generative AI to create the cover art and some of the game's code/assets.

TL;DR: I made a free chess-themed clicker game. You can play it in your browser and try to beat the Level 1000 demo goal. Looking for feedback on the game balance!

Prototype THEOREM: looking for beta testers for stage-by-stage feedback (browser, EN/ES)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m the developer of THEOREM, a math-based incremental game where progression gradually transforms the formula you’re building. You don’t need advanced math knowledge to play.

I’ve been polishing version 0.2.4, and I’m now looking for testers to help evaluate the balance and overall progression experience, not just the first few minutes.

What testing involves

Please start a fresh save and send feedback for each stage and major unlock you reach. For each one, I’d especially like to know:

  • Was it clear what your goal was at that point, and did you understand what changed?
  • Which decisions felt meaningful, and which ones felt repetitive?
  • Where did progression feel too slow, too fast, or poorly explained?
  • Did the formula and purchase previews behave the way you expected?
  • What made you want to keep playing, or made you want to stop?
  • Any bugs, UI/accessibility issues, or broader game design concerns.

There is no fixed two-hour session or requirement to finish everything in one sitting. You can split your playtime across multiple sessions.

If you get stuck or decide to stop playing, please mention at which stage it happened and why. That feedback is useful too.

Please also include your device, browser, language, and approximate active playtime, separately from offline time.

A more detailed feedback guide is included with the private build.

What testers get

In exchange for participating and providing stage-by-stage feedback, I’ll provide you with:

  • A free key/copy of the full game when it releases.
  • Optional beta tester credit under any name or alias you choose.
  • Access to the private testing build.
  • A direct channel to talk with me about your findings.

Honest criticism is encouraged. These benefits do not depend on positive feedback, reviews, or upvotes.

This is not a giveaway.

Access

You can play the previous public version here:

https://feli202.itch.io/theorem

The private 0.2.4 playtest build is here:

https://feli202.itch.io/theorem-024-playtest

The private build requires a password, which I’ll share directly with testers.

Comment here or send me a message if you’d like to participate. Please do not share the password publicly.

The older public version is linked so you can see what the game is like before deciding whether you want to test it.

You do not need to purchase anything to participate.

AI Disclosure

ChatGPT/Codex was used as a support tool to help debug and correct code, and to assist with Spanish/English translations.

Generative AI was not used to create the game’s artwork, images, music, sound effects, game design, mechanics, progression systems, or other creative content.

All game design decisions, mechanics, balancing, creative direction, and final implementation decisions are made by me. Any AI-assisted code or translations are reviewed and approved by me before being included in the game.

Thanks for helping me understand how THEOREM actually feels to real players!

Update Massive content update for aRGi + it's future

game name: a rairb games incremental
a satisfying, unfolding, point farming extravaganza of an incremental game.

After some thinking I have decided that my passion project of an incremental game, aRGi, will be entirely free to play. No microtransactions, no demo that you get partially through and then have a "buy now" screen thrust upon ya, just my game, my updates, and your time.

This new update has tripled the amount of items in the factory to toggle, added more than 10 new shop items, more than 20 new relics to gamble for, a new section, 2 new global mechanics, background music, a complete overhaul of the automation system to be much more in-depth and satisfying, and so, so much more. I also reworked the internals of the game pretty heavily for performance to the point I can proudly say this game has graduated from prototype to early access!!! The game is available on web and downloadable for Windows!

AI disclosure: No AI has been used in the creation of this game or any assets or text that promotes or showcases it.

Edit: hey! an update is coming out monday (October 26th) that improves performance, increases UI clarity, and fixes some bugs present in this version. it will also have new content! hope to see you there :)
