Frustrating issue

So I am using this code to make a game like cookie clickers:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class GoVar : MonoBehaviour
{
    int clicks = 0;
    bool clicktest = true;
    public Text m_MyText;
    void Start () {
        m_MyText.text = "$0";
    }
	void Update () {
        m_MyText.text = "$" + clicks.ToString();
        Clicky();
    }
    void Clicky()
    {
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) && clicktest == true)
        {
            clicks = clicks + 1;
            clicktest = false;
        }
        if (clicktest == false && Input.GetMouseButtonUp(0))
        {
            clicktest = true;
        }
    }
    

}

And it does nothing. It should be working but it just ignores when I click. Can someone please explain this?

Why are you using clicktest to determine if the player has lifted up the mouse button? By definition, “GetMouseButtonDown” won’t return anything if they’re holding it down. It only returns true if they’ve clicked it for the first time. I wonder if something related to your clicktest is messing up the condition to add to clicks.
