The Art Tree is an Idle Game by akivn made in The Modding Tree and released in 2023. At first, you gain skill and can reset it for Art points that are spend on various upgrades. With enough upgrades, you unlock Reincarnation, Competitions with characters from Shugo Chara! and real-world artists, and other layers.

The game is playable on Githack.


This game provides examples of:

  • Achievement System: There are 38 achievements to get by reaching specific quotas, some requiring you to be inside challenges.
  • Cap:
    • Art Machine's 1 level is capped at 20, while Art Machine 3's capped at 25.
    • Every Infinite Generator's and the sole Eternal Booster's level is capped at 999.
  • Challenge Run: There are Competition and Super-Competition layers where you have to reach a specific skill/Art point goal with production reduced or resources disabled. Beating each one grants a boost to production or unlocks a feature.
  • Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Almost every layer has a specific color.
    • Art: Green
    • Reincarnation: Cream
    • Competitions and Super-Competitions: Maroon
    • Infinity: Peach
    • Super-Reincarnation: Salmon
    • Infinity Power: Similar to Reincarnation, but slightly lighter
    • Eternity: Purple
  • Export Save: You can press a button to export the 6KB+ savefile and another to paste it into the game.
  • Gratuitous Japanese: The upgrade called "Watashi no Kokoro, Anrokku!"
  • Ludicrous Precision: The Hinamori Amu challenge has as many as seven digits after the point for its goal.
  • Not-Actually-Cosmetic Award: Each achievement boosts your skill gain a little and some provide additional rewards.
  • Number of the Beast: The "ERROR 666: DEVIL DOES NOT EXIST" is unlocked by getting a 6.66e666x multiplier from Art Machine 7.
  • Post-End Game Content: As of VA0.41, the endgame is getting 3 Eternity Points, but two achievements can't be gotten before that point and require some more grinding to get (though getting 13 Infinity Power while going after them will also inflate numbers way beyond the intended balancing).
  • Reset Milestones:
    • Having enough Reincarnations grants a milestone that unlocks new upgrades, automatically buys Art Machines, keeps things on reset, or grants a percentage of pending resources each second.
    • There are six milestones for Infinity Points that grant various autobuyers and keep Competition completions/Reincarnation milestones upon reset.
  • Shout-Out:
  • Skill Point Reset: Once you have the "Incredible." achievement, you can reset Art upgrades for achievements that would require lacking them, though none are implemented.
