Thank you for playing!
Yeah I didn't get to polish the mechanics as much as I wanted, and ended up moving to work on other parts due to the time constraints. Next time I think I'll give the mechanics more polish first, even if it means the game will be smaller.
But yeah, on the map size; originally I had a plan for 9 ingredients even and more areas :D, but I ended up scrapping middle phase from the game pretty early on. But yeah I'm probably making a smaller level next time regardless, as I overestimated a little how much I could do in 9 days, though I also increased the amount of polish from the original plan. Next time I'll focus even more on polish and make a shorter game, as that just seems to fit much better in the Jam format.
