How does your game fit the theme?
You’ve been kidnapped and locked in a room, stuck in a loop that resets with every failed mixture. There are no hints, no restarts, just the same cycle over and over. Only your past attempts are recorded.

If there's anything I can say about this game, is that it's very unique. I couldn't really play it with any sort of competency, but it was nicely done. It would be nice if there was some sort of hint as to what mixtures are good and which ones are bad.

Developer

hi, if its bad then you will definitely know wince there will be a huge explosion 😂. Make sure you play it on full screen to be able to see the mix and journal buttons! Thank you for the review

Submitted

Ah, I didn't see those.

Submitted

This was a really interesting breakaway from the other concepts I have seen so top marks for originality :)

As others have said a few more mechanics wouldn't go unappreciated but what you 'cooked' up here in the space of 96 hours is nothing to turn your nose at either.

Great job, I would love to see this fleshed out in a continued project after the jam is over :)

Developer

Thank you so much for the review, if we have time we would love to continue on the project; this was so much fun to create!

Submitted

get a little repetitive but otherwise a nice game!

Developer

since it is a loop we actually wanted it to get repetitive, thank you so much for the review!

Submitted

Reminds me of that old bartending flash game and that scene from the first season of breaking bad. Very cool game.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Interesting concept but it needs more mechanics I think.

Developer

yes we definitely agree, thank you

Submitted

Started playing, hit 'Mix' and — BOOM! Haha, did not expect that. Cool concept. Maybe starting with just two materials and gradually unlocking others by mixing in the right proportions could create some fun in-between steps to work through.

Developer

That's an awesome idea, if we continue developing the game; we will definitely do that! Thank you

Submitted

cool concept  but very hard

Developer(+1)

that's true, we didn't expect it to be this hard tbh we should've added some hints

Developer(+1)

For anyone wanting some hints:
The total of the liquid must be 100%.
If you add blue on top of red, it will explode.
Blue must always be the dominant liquid.

Hey, I love how we both have potion mixing games that people are complaining are too hard 😅 
I have added a walkthrough section in the description of my game, hoping to help the players reach the ending. Maybe that helps some players get unstuck.

Anyways, the game looks great, it is interesting to fiddle with the bottles and experiment. Good job!

Developer

Hey, I understand it totally :D I added a hint section in the comments as well. I will try out your game really soon to see if I can figure it out. Thank you!

Submitted

Love the art and concept. Couldn't figure it out

Developer

Thank you, it seems we made it too hard. Sorry about that😅

Submitted

Couldn't make a mix, and there was no button with log. The ui seems not to be working? The mixing looks promissing

Developer

Hi, it seems there is a problem with the screen. If you play full screen, you can see the UI buttons

Submitted

Cool concept! I would have loved some hints

Developer

Thank you, we should've added some hints tbh at this point everyone is telling the same thing

Submitted

Tried to play in browser but for some reason I can't pass the first stage, just reach 20% each, everything is full but nothing happens, Idk if I was able to make it fullscreen maybe there's a hidden button somewhere

Developer

Hi, thank you for playing the game. There is a hidden formula and you are supposed to guess it by playing it over and over again. The mix button in the right bottom is to mix the formula. If it is the correct one, you will get to see the end; if not...well, you are in the loop so you will have to try it again. Try to find the sequence between the explosions, so I think you can figure it out. If you want to see your previous attempts feel free to check the journal to make sure you dont do the same mistakes over and over. Hope this was a bit more clear🙌

Submitted

Oh, so the problem was really that I was not playing in fullscreen  🤦, mb, will try again!

Developer

oh i understand. If you feel stuck you can try to overpour the liquids to see when they explode, this might give an idea to understand how much is the max

Submitted

Interesting idea, I would love if there were more hints, and maybe the goal could be doing it in the least tries using the hints? The sound effects were funny. I really want to know if anyone guesses the formula right.

Developer

your is actually a great idea, we were more focused on the loops so did not want to add any hints. Altough If you ever interested in finishing the game and need a hint feel free to ask. Hope you have a great day
