Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Mantis Clicker is being developed by a solo developer, and Early Access gives me the opportunity to improve the game alongside its players. Community feedback is especially valuable for balancing progression, refining combat and automation systems, improving performance across different hardware, and discovering bugs or usability issues that may be difficult to find through solo testing. Early Access will help shape Mantis Clicker into a stronger and more polished game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Mantis Clicker is currently expected to remain in Early Access for approximately one to two years. As a solo-developed game, this estimate may change depending on player feedback, the scope of future updates, and the time needed to make each system feel complete and polished.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan for the full version to expand upon the Early Access release with additional areas to explore, new mantis types, story chapters, enemies, quests, mantis progression, abilities, items, buildings, cosmetics, and late-game content. Existing systems such as combat, housing, farming, fishing, automation, and progression are also planned to receive further balancing and refinement. Performance, controller support, accessibility, and overall polish will continue to be improved throughout development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is fully playable and already includes the main progression loop. Players can raise and customize mantises, explore multiple areas, battle enemies, collect resources, unlock abilities and skill-tree upgrades, complete quests, build and decorate a colony, farm crops, catch fish, and use automation systems.

The game is still under active development, so players may encounter bugs, balance changes, unfinished storylines, or systems that are expanded and refined through future updates.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to gradually increase the price as substantial new content and features are added during Early Access. The final price may be higher when the game leaves Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Player feedback will be gathered through Discord, Steam Discussions, reviews, community channels, and direct bug reports. Feedback will help identify technical issues, balance progression, improve existing features, and guide which areas of the game need the most attention. Development updates and patch notes will be shared so players can follow the game’s progress and see how Mantis Clicker continues to evolve.”

About This Game

Mantis Clicker is a hand-crafted pixel clicker and idle game with action-packed combat, magical abilities, and a growing mantis colony you’ll actually care about.

What begins with collecting leaves soon opens into a much larger adventure. Raise and evolve magical mantises, battle strange creatures, explore new areas, complete story quests, collect rare materials, and build a thriving home for your colony.

Actively click, collect, and fight, or invest in upgrades and automation that keep your colony moving WHILE you focus on exploration, quests, crafting, fishing and discovery.

Each mantis grows through multiple visual stages and offers its own playstyle, skill expression, status effects, and powerful abilities. Command petals and blooming magic, summon floods and coral curses, or harness sunlight to overwhelm anything threatening your colony.

• Level up and evolve multiple magical mantises
• Prestige to unlock new abilities and permanent progression
• Expand specialized Skill Trees and DNA Trees
• Discover new upgrades, resources, equipment, and cosmetics
• Build powerful ability combinations for combat and collection

Travel beyond the Grassy Hills into places like the dreamy Pink Petal Forest and the mysterious Dolphin Reef. Every area introduces different creatures, resources, fish, secrets, weather, and mechanics to uncover.

Fight crawling, flying, burrowing, and explosive enemies. Hunt creatures carrying keys, open locked chests, gather unusual drops, and fill your Codex with everything you discover.

Create and customize a home for your mantises using structures, decorations, crafting stations, and automated machinery. Watch your mantises roam around the colony, work, rest, repair damaged equipment, and help their home grow.

There is always something else to do:

• Craft useful items and placeable structures
• Fish for common, rare, and unusual catches
• Raise growing fish inside colony tanks
• Plant, water, and harvest a variety of crops
• Breed mantises and expand your colony
• Complete main story chapters and optional sidequests
• Meet strange characters with their own stories and requests

A WORLD THAT KEEPS GROWING

Mantis Clicker combines satisfying incremental progression with active combat, exploration, collection, and cozy colony building. Whether you want to chase upgrades, perfect your mantises, decorate their home, complete every quest, or uncover every creature in the Codex, there is always another secret waiting beyond the next leaf.
