Nice game!  Fits into the theme perfectly I'd say. Only minor critique would be to make navigating the rituals a little easier.  I spent some time flipping pages to find the right one and the timer was almost out by the time I found it. Other than that, I really enjoyed it.

Excelent gameplay, I love checking the recipies in between placing the items. It feels very old school minecraft.

Really nice game, especially for only 3 hours. I did have some trouble keeping some of the ingredients apart from each other. The feather stands out, but guts and iron look (to me at least) very much alike. Still really great game :)!

I also like the idea of a shoplike ritual, great twist :D!

Really polished game in under three hours! Everything ran smoothly, and I liked the skill element; once you memorized some rituals, you could do them faster. The difficulty ramped up nicely, though the final score showed "inf," so maybe it didn’t calculate correctly? The font was a bit tricky to read in some places, but it didn’t really affect the experience.
Would love to see a longer version with multiple levels, starting simple and unlocking more complex rituals as you go. It’d be fun if the character and visuals evolved too. Great job, this was really enjoyable! (＾▽＾)

Thank you so much! And yes, I noticed that score bug right after I submitted (accidentally did a floored division instead of a normal division when calculating the score), but I didn't want to update the game after I had submitted, feels a bit cheat-y ehe

Gameplay, visuals & audio were great, loved how simple yet engaging it was. One thing I'd change is that the amount of time the player has between rituals should be lowered as time goes on. Overall, very nice.

Thank you! It actually does lower, but since I didn't have too much time to playtest it, it lowers quite slowly, iirc you start with 40 seconds and after each ritual it lowers by 0.5-1.5 seconds. I definitely should've playtested a bit more before submitting ehe
