The game is quite creative, though some parts could use some work. I did not figure out what the numbers next to the plants meant until some time later. It also felt very repetitive after you created a perfect potion. Some changes to the pumpkin (and a pumpkin sprite) would have felt much better. Overall, the game is pretty creative and is a good idea, but it just didn't feel very fun, especially with the lack of any countdown or anything.
Creative and interesting. I do like games where we have to explore to gain knowledge, nowadays everything is given and that's making us lazy. Great job!
I also found the text kinda hard to read. I tried a couple of combinations, but did not get anything beyond a slight succes and then I also wasn't sure anymore about which ingredients I had used (and what I did to them), so it lacked some satisfaction for me.
Fun concept, unlocking the recipes. The UI at the start when it's telling you the story is a bit hard to read. The background is very light so I think the text should be a dark color to contrast. Seeing changes in the pumpkin instead of text would also be a good addition.
Fun game but I would make pumpkin a pumpkin
i should've found or made a pumpkin sprite for a game based around a pumpkin, you may be right
