This was very nice, I like the concept. A bit hard to start, maybe have the recipe book on the counter so you know you can click on it at the beginning. I would have preferred only mouse control, using the keyboard for moving the window was a bit janky. Maybe just allowing to change view by putting the cursor on the border. Also it was difficult to understand if the stuff was dry or not. The graphic is incredible!
So at first there was no text anywhere. I loved the idea of the game though so I kept fiddling and figured out why. On my computer there is writing or dialog and such in regular screen, but in that screen I can not read all the dalog because its way bigger then the screen. So I changed it to full screen, and doing so (changing it to full screen) causes all the writing to vanish and I have to reset the game. I would love to try again once that's fixed nd would love to play a full version of this
Enjoyed the panning back and forth between ingredients and the combine area. You could sometimes lose the syringe in the bowl if you were not careful. :)
My brain might have been too smooth to figure out the combines though. :(
I love the audio and art of the game! I was invested from the moment I realized there was physics to this game, it always makes for a goofy experience hehe. I think there was a bug where I started messing and clicking too quick and the text didn't appear in the boxes? Took me a while to realize that I had to use A and D to move and see the ingredients cause I skipped the tutorial oops haha. I think I lost my needle to the bowl at one point too. I love the fact that all the ingredient coliders are form fitting. I think one thing that could help is a more distinct change for dried ingredients? I couldn't really tell when it was ready. All and all a very chill and enjoyable game. Great work!
Yeah no text for me. Mabye something wrong with when I go fullscreen and it is spawning off map.

Games like this are always my favorite! I had a lot of fun playing!
Good Game
Hmmm... maybe there's a bug in the web version. I couldn't see any text in the recipe book at all. I guessed a few recipes though and had fun trying. Other than that, fun game play and nice art. I do agree with LFWPanda, the music loop was a little annoying, not a deal breaker, but could've been smoother.
Cheers!
Good luck with the jam.

Games were you can throw ingredients are fun as hell. Kinda of reminds me of papers please but with out the DOOM and stuff. My only complaint is the music. It got kinda annoying fast lol. Loved everything else though.
Love how for male you using Fly-agaric musroom.
Very chill game, nothing stresed, just made the poisons :)
