This is such a fun game, and the amount of polish is amazing too, the smoothness of the animations and movement, the artstyle, the music *mwah*. Something that i noticed is that the multiplier never gave me 4x in the scoring even if I reached that part of the bar next to the cauldron. Either way it felt great to play. I love the easy to grasp potion brewing mechanic that becomes a pretty fun puzzle with limited ingredients.

- Good GDD, I loved seeing the details and plans. Very cool! The ideas and foundations link very nicely to the game jam, and the underlying themes are mysterious & magical with a cool soundtrack! Thoroughly enjoyed my little play through. Feedback: Implement a training section to the functionality behind the game. (How you move build potions, what the ingredients are, how you use the shop etc) Add item descriptions to the items in crafting window The game is nicely laid out and thought out, please keep going with this. I would be very interested to see how you implement new items and upgrades to the shop & potions :)
- GDD The pace of the document is good. Good with images for mechanics. Nice with art theme interpreation and color design Game The game loop is very relaxing. Nice! I enjoy the fact that it is not stressed with countdown and whatnot. The game does give that very potioncraft feeling and yet it is different. Sadly i died too quickly because I didnt have enough stuff to craft the potions / runes.

Extra Notes
I originally intended to end the game after day5 (after a hard week of work) but didn't had time to finish the game as I went on vacations so it currently breaks on day 6
The webgl build created a strange scritch in the theme audio :(
I'll handle those concerns in a few weeks, in the mean time, please enjoy the game :)
