Wow, this game is huge! I had real fun crafting potions and making the villagers test them :) It was very satisfying to get 3 stars! The only thing I struggled with was remembering which ingredients made which potion (I thought that would appear in the potion book, but I couldn't see it?). Great game though, especially for such a short timescale.

So much content in this! It was fun trying to figure out what to combine and what to give the villagers. Seems like it was missing a sound effect for when I got three stars so that was always a bit of a let down haha. I kept forgetting how to make certain potions, and I thought that might have been in the potion book but I couldn’t find it. Overall though great job!!

Nice content, art, and story! Some text were kinda hard to read, but might just be due to my eyesight. Were you all inspired by Potion Craft?

Very nice game! Looks very good and I am impressed with all the content and interactions you have in the game. There is a lot to explore in this game! Some minor things to improve:

In fullscreen mode it does not scale up. I always use the following setting in the game config of Phaser:
scale: {
mode: Phaser.Scale.FIT,
autoCenter: Phaser.Scale.CENTER_BOTH
}
The music was very quiet. I had to turn the sound all the way up to hear something and then the sound effects were a bit loud.

Anyway, congratulations to this very good entry!

Hello! Thank you very much for playing the game as well as your very helpful feedback! We will make sure to improve the game with your input!

A good game, i was suprised by the amount of gameplay there is for such a short period of time, which is remarkable. Art and music fit the style of the game. I don't know if it's just me, but most of the time the quest and the picture doesnt match. Also i would indicate what ingredients you should use maybe just one or some sort of hint. Otherwise a great game.

The white blood cell - Last hope

The game has good visuals and a nice universe, well done. I would have liked a reminder of how to make potions, and maybe out of laziness, a reminder of which potion is used for what context after having discovered it (directly in the quest board). Otherwise, great game, well don !

Minor bug, if you want to ‘cancel’ the purchase of a potion ,may retrigger the question about purchasing a potion if there was a locked potion behind the cancel button.

Neat game, love the art. Handing out potions at random with unexpected results is the best XD Love it.

Fight of the Tatsujin

I love all the different stories you get from trying new potions! I was sure that speaking with plants would help the NPC looking for a locket in the forest, but no, a chat about photosynthesis instead! And giving the wizard a beard potion led to great success in his adventure! Lots of fun
