I would love to see the continuation of this game, as I liked brewing potions! It’s unfortunate that you were unable to finish it.

Combat felt ok, when I understood that you just need to spam left-click enemies, they felt like a tiny obstacles in my way anyway. Picking up items wasn’t too intuitive, I would prefer either a click or a keyboard press without the need to hover over the item.

I loved the brewing mechanics, the step-by-step process felt nice and it would be cool to see potions which requires you to memorise more steps, and to properly prepare for that with some significant effects in the main crawling part of the game.

Here’s my play-through:

I think there are too many steps in the potion brewing or maybe I missed something. It is a shame, that you ran out of time to fix the more problematic bugs, like the missing fail state for 0 HP. I walk around quite a while until I noticed, that my character should be dead after fighting a couple of enemies. Maybe I wasn´t fighting them at all? If I did, than there needs to be more feedback on hits. The music is nice and the graphics well made. The movement could feel a bit smoother and hitting the keys for every move gets tiresome after a while. But very interesting concept for a jam!

Once I figured out how to play, it was really fun. Look forward to seeing where you take this post-jam

I played a bit, got cautious not to get down to 0 hp again after the first time.

The (3?) tunes are nice and making potions is relaxing. The outdoor environment is detailed given the context, I specially like the look of both gathering spots, and I enjoyed getting rid of all the monsters in a single trip without my hps getting down to 0 after I had assembled a big enough stock of potions. 

While movement is fine it's not 100% smooth, sometimes a button press doesn't trigger a response when trying to move fast. From what I gather hitting during fights works with a cooldown but the sound effect is the same when you actually perform a hit or when you cannot yet, which is confusing.

Thanks for sharing!

At first I don't know how to make a potion, trying to click and pressing F on everything does nothing. So I just go out to see the dungeon. The dungeon itself is great, nice visuals with cozy atmosphere and the enemy models are cool. What I don't understand though is the need to press F and left click, you can do it all with left click both attacking and interacting, or left click to attack and right click to interact. After exploring for a while and wondering when the game's gonna end I read the game description and realized that this is just a sandbox lmao. I then watched Captain Coder's playthrough and tried making potions again, turns out you have to click the potion on the whiteboard! Some onboarding would be nice. The potion making process is nice and straightforward. Nice game, needs more onboarding, the dungeons are cool, interested to see more of this polished up.

Interesting mechanics. Took me a while to figure out how the brewing system works, but once you do it makes sense. You take damage from enemies, but don't die when you reach zero.  I spent some time after making all available position to try to kill all enemies to see if that would trigger a win screen, but it does not seem to be one.

Instructions say to turn right with R, which is a typo since its actually E, like all other game :P

Thanks for the game!

Very colourful and pretty game! Just noticed death is not implemented for the player xD I found it a bit hard to navigate back to the potion area though! 

Really good work though :) 

Not a bad concept at all. Cozy vibe, which I always enjoy. I liked the mechanics of the potion brewing and the separation of that process with the gathering of parts. Movement was responsive enough and the level was well laid out in that I could navigate it by memory quite easily.

However, I am not sure if the game had an end goal or a larger goal to work towards. Making potions was a core mechanic, but it wasn't framed as the final goal.

I get the vibe of what you were going for, even if you ran out of time to implement everything you wanted to. The idea of collecting ingredients and then making potions is a good base for things. I could see like a fuller realization of this game where you brew a potion that opens a portal to another area with more ingredient types or something like that, progressing that way.

Good music and good art style, I like the enemy designs.

It took me a little bit to get used to the controls and what would actually interact with things but I made a few potions for fun.

Seems like you had a game you wanted to make and then decided afterward it had dragons in it, huh? :) It's fine, I'm sure a lot of people do that with themes.

Vaguely made me think of the game Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator.

There is no way to get back to the menu or quit the game?
Also, it was very hard to find the way back to the door if you got a bit far.
Otherwise the music was nice and the toads quite funny
