Nice little incremental game! I liked finding the balancing between spending karma for more karma value and keeping it to raise my multiplier. Well made game!
Took me by surprise, in a great way ! And it worked just fine on the phone!
Unique, and incredibly well made, Good Job !
cool idea and art too congrats!!
Cool game. Different from most other games.
Really unique game, but really interesting. Nice use of the extra theme "roots" ahah
Broooo this reminds me of when I used to play cookie clicker in middle school
Fun at the beginning but progression is too slow, still congrats on making it !!
Fun, but epic time waste
Interesting game, great idea. Could maybe do with a few more options but its cool! Nice job! As someone who wants to make some incremental games in future, I'm wishing for your good success!
An interesting concept, though I think it would need a tiny bit more upgrades for destroying the root itself! Good incremental game nontheless!
I didn’t really get the idea behind the game at first, but the concept of an idle game to explore the theme works great! Well done!
Fun
Cool and unique!! Definitely agree on fitting in autumn a little more but this was fun ❤️
Somehow these numbers are really addicting... Good job I suppose! After a while I was just spamming the prestige button, I'm not sure if that's how it was meant to be played when you made the game. I have the feeling the whole game could look a little more autumn-ish if you just changed the main colors and the layout a little bit, but it's well done with the time pressure in mind. I like the little activist wink in the game, too bad that we live in a world where we have to fight for all these things.
I love this interpretation of the theme!!! :D
puns make me numb
but math puns make me number
This is what happens when you destroy all the evil. I ended up with negative karma gain and couldn't buy anything.

I love incrementals, this one was fun!
