Very cool and adictive!

Great and very cute game. I liked it, you're good.

I think exploration through combination is a fantastic mechanic that I wish we saw more in games. Your new potion discovery was quite addictive. I wish there was a progress wiki that the player would fill out as they made more discoveries. Good job!

Wonderful game! We loved the visuals and the music (though it seemed to stop after a few minutes). Great job!

Couldn't do anything after tutorial. Couldn't buy things, button were a bit off (as you mentioned)

Developer

Sorry for the bad gameplay experience...🥲

Submitted(+1)

I tried the APK but was never able to do anything after finishing the tutorial. I have the same Elixir bug as others here sadly.


I can thus only comment the art and UI which looks great ! The game looked fun, too bad I was not able to try it.

Developer

Oh my god... Sorry...😱

Didn't think Wordle with potions was possible, but damn you made really fun. Now that you can ditch the theme, i think upping the pressure with some sort of loose state, would make the game even better. Perhaps it costs to make potions and you can go broke if you make too many mistakes. And some supply and demand stuff to make ingredients cost too much and portions sell for too little to make spamming the same potion over and over again viable. Be really fun to have high risk and reward options with great sell prices but expensive ingredients. Thanks for this dope little experience ♥️

Played and rated! I thing that with left click of double click for mobile the potion should sell inmediately or trash inmediately

Submitted(+1)

it has a super cute art style and really relaxing music to go with it. I wanted to play more but i could never figure out how to sell potions. Really awesome game concept though, glad its working for others.

Developer

OMG, My explanation wasn't enough... 😱

To sell a potion, tap the storage potion! if you tap the storage potion, a sell or trash popup will open! 

I'm sorry for not providing enough explanation 😱 And Thank you for playing and feedback!

I have the same issue as Ferall, I can only click on the elixir which then proceeds to say that I created the elixir and the end game stats. I can switch tabs and the buttons visually react to clicking, but I have 0 money so I cannot buy any ingredients or anything. It's a bummer, as the game looks otherwise polished and interesting to play.

Developer

Oh no...!! 😭 I'm really sorry for the bad play experience...!! 😢
I have no idea why this bug is happening... I'm so sorry...😱

I will fix the bug and definitely provide a better gameplay experience...!!

Thanks for your feedback, and once again, I apologize for the bad play experience ...😭

Submitted

Oh, no worries, I'm used to seeing broken game jam games, and am by no means annoyed by this. 
But I do empathize with anyone who worked hard and still had issues with their game. Good luck figuring out the bug!

I think I missed sth, it seems that the only thing I can do is clicking on the elixir, and that makes an instant succes for the elixir. I can't buy anything or try to craft something else :( your game looks fun tho

Developer

OMG...!!! I'm really sorry for the bad gameplay experience... 😢😢
I can't figure out why the success of elixir immediately after starting game...😱
I will definitely fix that BUG...!! 
I'm sorry for the bad experience again...😭

Don't worry, I might have done something wrong 😅

This one got me hooked!  The big boost in value between potions kept me coming back till I eventually got to the end.

Submitted(+1)

Super fun and addictive! Loved the challenge of figuring out the right ingredients. The medieval alchemy theme makes it even more engaging!

Submitted(+1)

I kept mixing potions over and over, trying different ways and mixing again. I have to say, this game is both fun and surprisingly relaxing!

Submitted(+1)

Really cute interface and nice polish. Makes it fun to experiment! Not sure if it's an issue on my end, but the scrolling occasionally became very slow (using two fingers on laptop touchpad to scroll).

Submitted(+1)

Really addictive and fun mechanic. Great work!

Submitted(+1)

I was totally addicted! I couldn't get enough lol. Such a simple concept, but I feel the setting was just perfect. I really enjoyed playing. Finally getting the Elixir was satisfying. I also spent time spamming the small potions to make a bunch of money, only to realize that the higher level potions sold for so much more lol

Submitted(+1)

Really enjoyed this one! I like trying to figure out what the next combination might be. :D I got up to 13 potions, wondering how many there are total before the elixir.

I wish the donate button had some effect.  It would also be nice if the trash/sell didn't take two clicks since there's only one option.

Great job on the sounds, art and gameplay!

A lot of gameplay for a game made in a week.

Quite fun to play!

I'm impress with how many different potions you made, I thought it was going to be really short but it had a good length for a jam game, and the twist in the end was really fun and clever, loved the game.
