I was really eager to play this one through the month since it kind of targets my weak spot of potion brewing & I had a lot of fun with it! The biggest hurdle I think I would run into was the click & drag mechanics being a bit slow for a trackpad. Honestly it would have been helpful to have a kind of 'toggle' mode where you could just click things to assemble them or possibly just have a bit more time with customers in that regard. The other hitch I had (though I have no idea how to tackle it) is just that the fusions felt a little unintuitive? For the most part I was just interested in seeing what came up, but by the time there were 5-6 ingredients I was thinking it'd be super helpful to have a kind of rhyme or reason to how they worked, even if it was just color based. Some of them did! but for example I had a long line on the last day when someone asked for a light orange potion i hadn't made yet, the color & mix looked intuitive enough between the mer eggs & the catgirl (which the mixture even made sense for) but then when i tried the combo it was Wildly wrong & I had to scramble to see what else I hadn't tried. The worst exp I had with this exact thing was actually the second to last day where I just could not figure out the combo whatsoever and lost 4-5 clients, but since the game doesn't quite punish you, I didn't take it too hard. Just sharing my exp!

At any rate I like this one a lot, scratches a similar itch to games I used to play on newgrounds or yahoo where the loop is super simple but offers a lot of replayability.
