Interesting gameplay! I like the shoot yourself movement as a concept, but it was a bit clunky and hard to control! I think that if you make that more newb friendly, this game would be more fun and played more!
Also, ADD MUSIC please :p
Nice job tho for 5 days!

- For 5 days, this is pretty good! The potions and the chaos they bring was fun. Would like some mixing or effective potions that altered some more movements. Very good!
- It certainly hits the mark the developer set themselves: making it a challenging, yet rewarding platformer. The theme was only partly delivered, as although shadows are a major part of the gameplay, alchemy is not. And throwing potions, although a very clever way of implementing the mechanics, is not enough for me theme wise. A little bit of music and sounds would make this a lot more enjoyable. To fully deliver on the theme, it might be possible to give some floating ingredients to the player for combining more potions "on the fly".

You are playing as a robot in a facility that has gone dark. You must escape with the help of a few potions.
Exploding Potion is your best friend and allows you to move through the challenging level. When thrown on the ground it will propel you into the air giving you momentum.
