Good idea! But considering that progress resets to zero, it would be better to place the mixer next to the table with the ingredients so that when restarting, it's faster to collect known recipes. Also, hints for recipes would be helpful. But other than that, it's a wonderful game!

Happy to hear you liked the idea! You are absolutely right about the retrying process being frustrating and the gameplay loop being slow. However I feel that putting the mixing machine right next to the ingredients would speed up the gameplay loop too much to the point where the game would become quickly boring. But I do understand what you mean. I should've made the player walk faster or just shortened the distance between the ingredients and the mixing machine, as well as made the retrying a lot faster. I also agree with you that hints would definitely make this game a lot more fair. Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!
