I appreciate that you stuck to your guns and wanted people to use the old fashioned manual. A lot of retro games arent 'hard' per se but they just weren't as beginner friendly and you nailed that, surpassing just looking and sounding like a retro game (both of which you did awesome at). I reached up to day 8 before throwing in the towel.
I do feel the bee minigame is a bit irregular and sometimes I could instantly catch a bee by spamming the A button, but all the other ones felt fair and were enjoyable. I also do think having an indicator square over which drink you were selecting on top of having it display at the bottom like you had would make it a bit easier to remember where you are in the scroll.
Overall great game and great job!

Thank you very much! I whipped out my battered old gameboy and played through a bunch of classics to try and get the feel set in my mind, glad it paid off :)
You're right about the bee game though! I figured being able to repeat the game very quickly balanced the randomness a smidge, but it could certainly use some tweaks
