  • GDD The pace of the document is good. I would recommend to have images in inspirations. Good to included images in game mechanics Good to included minimum viable product + beyond Game Good with the main menu. Glad to see options, but it could included accessibilties? The levels was fun. Good idea to included the controls in background. However I found a bug. For some reasons after collect everything and got the alchemy table in my inventory, I could craft infinite brew potions... The end of the game didnt return me back to main menu...

I can't figure out what to do at the start and isn't really teaching me or helping me to play the game. Need to give a player a helping hand at the beginning but over all I like the look and aesthetics of it.

Sorry if it's hard to figure out, I'm trying to allow the player to learn themselves and give them hints on what to do with the pictures in the background.
