Brilliant game, great great job! It's been my favorite so far for sure. My only comment is that it may help to be able to change the plants you have already planted, as I planted too many of the earlier plants and ran out of space before I unlocked them all. But still a wonderful game.

Awesome game, for real! The whole concept of potion making is always very fun to me. Your game had a great aesthetic and you did well to make an intriguing story. Perhaps the progression and gameplay may could be customized a bit more to make it a bit more fun in the beginning, butttt overall, really good job you guys!

I love this! Nice graphics, sound, the letters.  Everything feels very smooth and I just really like the artstyle and concept a whole lot :)  A skip day button would be good though. :D

This game is neat. Taking quests and checking the journal to see what combination works for who is quite fun. Reached day 93 and unlocked everything =D


One thing I would have liked is the ability to just skip the brewing step after completing a quest and go to the next day. Currently you have to brew something before the tomorrow button shows which slows you down a bit and makes you fill the shelves with stuff that you don't need. Other than that, the game is very fun and well made, and the art style is great. Excellent work!

Aww, thank you! I'm glad that you had fun with my little poison game [:

I did notice the brewing problem when I eventually got to actually playtesting the game, but unfortunately I had neither the time nor energy left to fix it at that point. But it's definitely something I will be revisiting after the jam!
