This game is first-person 3D interactive memory game where you "shadow" an alchemist doing his work. The game loop is this: Alchemist makes a potion, the player replicates the steps exactly. Depending on how many times the player fails, the player receives a grade for that potion recipe. The game progressively gets more difficult as the potion recipes get more complex.

Extra Notes
There is a rendering error (as a result of creating a web build) which prevents the game from being played, unfortunately. To be honest I didn't test a web build until the last 20 minutes of the jam.. lesson has been learned. Also I kinda sorta worked on the game for 20+ hours straight, so probably not going to do that again.
