- Demo major update! - 27 August 2026
Hi dear players!Thank you all for the feedback on the previous demo build! You told us the loop needed to feel smoother and more hands-off, so that's exactly what we focused on this update.Here's what's new:Auto-Schedule : Click the wizard robot and let it automatically fill your pool with any actions you've unlocked. No more manually queuing everything yourself.Plan a full week ahead : You can now schedule your character's actions up to 7 days in advance, instead of managing things day by day.Logs : See exactly what your character earned while you were away or looking at something else in the game. No more guessing what happened off-screen.Also included:Right-click tooltips almost everywhere (quests, actions) for extra detailsNew iconsAdjustable music and FX volumeLots of bug fixesspeed 0.5 -> 10We'd love to hear what you think, especially whether the game feels more idle and more flui…

More soon ✨
- We're Part of the Cat Awareness Fest! 🐱✨ - 7 August 2026
Dear Abracademia's students, The Cat Awareness Fest runs from August 7th to 17th, and we're so happy Abracademia gets to be part of it! After all, what's a wizard without their trusty feline companion by their side?Whether they're curling up on your desk while you brew potions or judging your spellcasting from across the room, cats have always been a witch's best friend ,and this fest is here to celebrate that (while supporting cat adoption too 🐾).I think it's a good occasion to share with you a bit of Captain Pompon's backstoryCaptain Pompon is the co-owner of the Cashmere Shop, its accountant, and the one who keeps the place running whenever Tulin has classes at the Abracademia. No one knows whether he's a magical creature, a young Cath Balug, or just a very smart cat. Then again, no one has ever found the courage to ask. What every student does know is that Captain Pompon never give…
- Abracademia is coming out on October 13th, 2026! - 6 August 2026
A year ago, Abracademia was just a scribbled idea in a notebook. Today, we're beyond excited to finally announce our release date: October 13th, 2026.A cozy idle life-sim set in a magic schoolBuilding Abracademia as a small indie team has been one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences we've ever had. There were late nights debugging weird bugs, moments of doubt, and way too much coffee, but also so much joy watching this little world slowly come to life.Every character, every animation, every tiny detail in Abracademia was made with a lot of love by our small team. We can't wait for you to finally step into this magic school and make it your own.Thank youThank you to everyone who's followed along, played the demo, left feedback, or just hyped us up along the way. It genuinely means the world to us. This wouldn't have been possible without this community.Mark your calendars:…
- Next Fest ends tonight, what comes next? - 22 June 2026
Dears Abracademia students, What a week! Thank you so much to everyone who tried the Abracademia demo,your feedback has been genuinely invaluable, and we have a long list of ideas to explore based on what you told us.A first demo's update is already in the works and should be out very soon, you can expect some improvements based on your feedback! One thing we're particularly excited about: we've been improving the character creator tool. It was already great for making cute students , but we felt it was missing options for the more... chaotic types. Goofier characters are now on their way!
- Same school, very different vibes - 19 June 2026
Hi Students, On your very first day at Abracademia, you were sorted into one of the 5 covens after taking a test, received your uniform, met your classmates, toured your dorm... but we're guessing you've wondered: would your school life have looked any different in another coven?When we designed the covens in Abracademia, we didn't want them to just be different color palettes slapped onto the same uniform. Each coven was built to feel like its own little world inside the school, with its own uniform, its own banner, and its own set of illustrations that reflect each coven's personality and atmosphere. Walking into Wargard's dorm should feel nothing like walking into Feynyx's.Wargard's table :Fatum Morgana's Table :Feynyx's Table: Waltzpurgis' Table :Medusalem's Table:That difference isn't just visual either. Each coven also unlocks its own exclusive actions you won't find anywhere else…
- A peek at what's waiting beyond the demo! - 18 June 2026
Hi Abracademia community ! We've gotten such lovely feedback on Abracademia's art since the demo launched, and honestly, it means a lot. We couldn't resist sharing a few more artworks with you as a little thank you The demo only covers the first steps of your time at school, there's a lot more waiting in the full game that we haven't shown yet! We wanted to give you a small preview of what's ahead: These three pieces tease a few of the events that will punctuate your wizard's everyday life. We've always wanted Abracademia to feel like a little breath of fresh air sitting at the bottom of your screen while you work or study, and these moments are part of how we're building that. More to come as we get closer to launch!
- 🎉 We're part of Steam Next Fest! - 17 June 2026
Steam Next Fest started 2 days ago, and we want to give a huge thank you to everyone who has already tried our demo and added Abracademia to their wishlist. We've seen in the press that there are simply too many demos this round for anyone to try them all. So the fact that Abracademia managed to catch your eye in the middle of all that noise is honestly huge for us! Quick note while we're here: generative AI has also been a big talking point in the press for this edition, so we wanted to be clear about where we stand. Abracademia is made by humans, with love (and a lot of coffee ☕️) and no generative AI. Every illustration, every line of dialogue, every spell is crafted by hand by our tiny team. Thank you for showing up, for testing, for wishlisting!
