Very cool idea and I really liked the PDF pamphlet haha. However I think some quality of life features are missing such as spilling the tea, locking the mouse to the center of the screen and general audio or visual feedback when a player is doing some actions. Good luck!

The game is cool. The limitation is very well implemented, imo, but the theme is kinda weak on the other side. The idea is cool and I looked the pdf document and all. 

Unfortunately I wasn't able to properly grasp the gameplay. I felt like the items didn't combine and some visual/sound feedback is needed to inform the player that it worked or it can't be mixed. 

And what happens when you brew something wrong? I didn't know what to do with a wrong tea cup. Didn't find anyway to spill the tea.

Hello! thanks for the feedback! we definitely agree that some Quality of LIfe adjustments would make gameplay more smooth but we unfortunately wanted to get something semi-polished before the submission. We hope to keep working on it and that you come play again soon!

I will rate your game tomorrow, I need to clear my queue for it and its too late rn. But I played it. I like the art style a lot, quite retro cool, and the music and sfx r very nice and pleasant. However, the gameplay is a bit confusing. Yes, there is a tutorial on the website, but I feel like it would be much better to have it in game. Also adding visuals for adding ingrediencies and water as u click would clear some confusion as well. I wasn't sure if I added them to the cup or not. I was also able to hold three items instead of just two which was odd.  Shame the shadow is of a basic capsule and not of a person.

I could see it as a management game, with receiving payment and buying better equipment. A little weird that the npcs just disappear after getting their tea, without any dialog or sfx. I would add some money sfx at least.

Overall nice little game, nice usage of the limitation, but I think it could get even better :)

Hi! thanks for the feedback, we appreciate it! we definitely would've loved to have more Quality of Life but we ran out of time. We hope to keep working on it after the jam!
