How does the game fit the theme?
Almost everything can go wrong if you don't follow the instructions, so make sure nothing goes wrong! Being a chemist you have to follow
your instructions, otherwise you won't be able to make it before finding the final formula.

It's a 3D game with beautiful visuals and a strong scientific reference. It's a really great game design idea!

Developer

Thank you!

A fun little game about mixing chemicals and making they don't blow up in your face! It starts quite simple but gets more more and complicated! 

I like that you can throw all the chemicals, and some of them even blow up when you do so, it's nice to pent-up the stress from figuring the puzzle!

Overall you did a fantastic job on this!

Developer

Haha very kind words, glad you liked it! :D

This game has lot of potential! And not to mention i like blowing up things. Maybe adding player guidance and progression system would be a nice touch. Great work btw!

Developer

Thank you! A progression system actually sounds like a good idea :D

Really loved this game! It was challenging but not at all in a bad way!

Enjoyed! Kinda hard, but so is Chemistry (At least once you hit OChem)
Great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing even though it was difficult!

I liked it! Enjoyed the chemistry, could see a full chemistry themed game out of this! Gotta add a breaking bad reference in there! YEAH SCIENCE!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! We will remember the breaking bad reference for our next chemistry game!

curious game

Nice game ! I got confused with a lot of the names, especially since I couldn't find how to make the game fullscreen, the text was a bit hard to read. ^^'

Developer

Thank you! We noticed that the text was sometimes hard to read and used this as a feature. You know, scientists tend to have terrible handwriting :D

Submitted

nice concept, i made some mess with trowing potions at the start but nothing wrong happen :)

Developer

Thank you. If you throw hard enough it can get dangerous!

Fun game, but gets complicated quickly! Neat game idea as well! Maybe look a bit into post-processing, this could improve the look and feel of your game by a big margin. Also a mechanic to hang up notes on the wall would be cool. I'd appreciate if you also played my game. ;)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!  We will look into post processing for our next project. Is there any effects you have in mind :D

Submitted

Chromatic abberation, vignette will step your game up a notch ;)

thank goodness that the chemist is basically immortal, comes in handy when you can't follow instructions....

Developer

Haha it's from all the juice
