Really interesting game design! Echoing what others have said already, it's hard to know what kinds of potions to make  a starting potion recipe would have been nice to have.

Developer

Thank you, I will add more recipes after the jam finishes!

I think messing around the table and using different tools is a great concept. But I couldn't find a single potion recipe, all I got was Goo.

It would be easier to find new recipes if instead of recipes you already unlocked, the book contained cryptic hints about recipes you don't know yet.

Also, some animation for all the interactions would make the game feel more alive. Right now the table looks good too, just a bit too static.

Developer

Thank you, will definitely improve after ratings end!

Developer

Thank you!

Could you explain how to create one potion? I tried some stuff but failed ... :)

Developer

I didn't have much time to add recipes, so no wonder. There are like 5 potions, and recipes are a bit random. My go-to is Speed Potion, which you make by brewing:

- Pure Alcohol

- Eyeball

- Moon Dust

You get Moon Dust by grinding Bone and Diamond in the Mortar.

Thanks for playing!

Interesting game. I like the idea of crafting the potions. It would be nice to have a little recipe book that shows you what recipes you have already unlocked.

Developer

Oh, there is such book already 😅

Good game, but i haven't unlocked any recipes except Goo(

Developer

Yeah, didn't really have time to put a lot of recipes unfortunately. Glad you liked tho!
