Fun potion brewing game! I liked that the alchemist’s notes were effectively the tutorial, teaching you how to brew. The sound and visual effects both added a lot of pop (literally, sometimes) to the game, and the flavor text on some of the potions were funny too.

The fill meter was fun to watch change colors as you added ingredients - I don’t think the glow effect was overdone, honestly. Holding down the mouse worked fine for filling the cauldron, but my instinct was always to click and drag rather than just clicking. Maybe a little free motion on the bottles (similar to the ladle) would have made it feel a little more satisfying.

Once I realized that you could just try to make stuff and get hints, it was pretty easy to get to the end of the game. It might have been fun to have slightly more cryptic hints, rather than just telling the player directly which ingredients were needed more or less.

Overall, very nice work. Fun and well-polished, congratulations!

That game was really cool. I played many alchemy games on phone and that one got me! Was fun to play around with the potions and getting to the final one. The visuals are really great and also the visual effects are well done. I had no control or accessibility issues and everything went smooth. Great job on this!

This was a cute and lovely experience! It's short but it's very polished. Controls are the best part, they're simple and accessible.

I just about jumped out of my skin when the potion success sound effect went off the first time!

A fun game, love searching for different ratios, and especially love the ending.

Well done!

Super cute game! Loved the art and sound design. It was super polished. The beginning and ending cut scenes were excellent. Great writing and humor. Love this project. :)

Really well polished game! Love the art and sound.

Great feel overall, well polished both visually and mechanically. Nothing felt buggy, the game worked as you would expect. The visuals were well done and came together well. I like that it was a fairly short experience, the feedback from wrong ratios was really well done!

Cute game and well polished. The art and graphics, and particle effects are well done!

Nice cozy game (which kind of doesn't really fit the apparent urgency in the story, but that's not too bad). Thought I did something wrong the first time the cauldron exploded, but that was just what it does when you do something correctly. The audio fit very well. Good accessibility and settings. Would have been more fun if there was less guessing involved. I think that it would have been more interesting to get some clues after the first 3 potions about what needs to go in the next potions (and not just calculating the full percentage). The hints do help reduce the guesswork involved. The ending was surprising and funny though.

Hi Escada Games,

This was a super fun game. Great idea and flawless execution, resulting in a really polished experience.

Can't really think of anything to criticize really. Like the use of notes as means of an immersive tutorial.

Wonderful job, congrats on your entry! :)

pretty neat, nice use of particles & glow & tweens n such!

This game was SUPER fun! I felt like a real alchemist, using trial and error to do SCIENCE.

I was able to beat it in about a half hour, but each minute spent was pure joy.
