Very nice and simple memorization game, I managed to make it to the end though I will admit I started to struggle a lot when ice and lemons started to get included and my last order was literally just a guess.

Apparently only the ratios matter, which would have made it significantly easier as for a time I thought if lemon/ice was underneath a cocktail ingredient it HAD to come right after it lol.

Still a solid entry overall.

Thx a lot for your kind words! Glad u enjoyed it!

Glad I got to finally try this out after you seen dev it in the Discord! I like the memorization loop. It maybe brings me back to bookkeeping where you remember invoice numbers for a few seconds then jump onto the next one XD  Would have loved to try maybe just one more thing, to push that memory challenge a half step further.

Loved the gameplay. Loved the novel idea.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Glad u enjoyed the game! Also yeah, i can see why the difficulty can be important here.

Nice little memorisation game, I played it until the end :D

I like how the difficulty gradually increases as you play

I guess the symbols are the important bit here, kinda like how much of a percentage a drink should be mixed

The only issue is that some of the SFXs could be toned down

Developer

Thanks! Glad u enjoyed it! Also yeah, some of the sfx could be toned down, especially the timer one

I thought this was a fun short game. I actually think it worked fine without the music and I thought the SFX was fitting for that gameboy feel.

Love to see the game finished with all the different mixing ideas! I felt like the game was easy to understand, at worst mixing times were a bit too tight even if knew what you were doing. I also feel like a drink passed, even though I did the wrong order, does it only check for ratios?

Graphically the game is not bad, it is a bit ruff on the edges, but what it wants it gets done. Title screen font scaling sadly breaks the resolution rules!

SFX was okay, I would kinda want a little variation on the timer ping as it was getting repetitive at the end.

Overall so far an idea I haven’t seen, executed well! Good game!

Developer

Thx for the feedback! IT only checks for the ratios cuz no matter in what order you pour cocktails usually end up the same, but i understand why  you were confused by it.  Scaling issues are my worst enemy tbh, but the hosters didn't get it as an issue so i got off easy, tho yeah it breaks em. Also i got a "timer beep to loud" complaint multiple times and yeah, it is annoying. Btw you posted a comment 1 times
