I wish I had tabletop simulator to try this out! Looking over the rules, it looks like a lot of fun! Unfortunately, since I wasn't able to play it, I haven't rated it, but if one of my friends has tabletop simulator and I get a chance to try it out I definitely will (and come back to rate it)!

@bookworm31 Yay, thanks for feedback!:) It would be great to know your impressions about the game =) Ratings are not very important for me to be honest. ^_^

a tip for next LD: use a platform that most of the people can run... It's already hard enough to get 20 votes :)

@simone Thank you for your attention! =) Unfortunately I was not able to join my team in jam category this time and I decided to try compo. And since I have zero knowlege in programming, I decided to make a tabletop game. :D I was aware that my game will not be popular, so it is ok. I just hope that there wil be some people that will try it and share their impressions.)

next LD if you have trouble finding a programmer hit me up! your art is on point! Downloading tabletop simulator now to give this a try :)

edit*

I quickly tried setting up a game since I didn't have anybody to play with right now. The grid works really well placing the cards so it doesn't get messy. I also really dig the artwork. A suggestion I would give is have a copy of the rules in the game for anybody who downloads this directly from the workshop.

@nopogo Thank you! =) My problem was the lack of time so I was able to participate in 48 hours category only. I will be extremely grateful for any feedback about gameplay and art. And I hope that rules are understandable, if something isn't clear - I can try to explain it here in comments. :)

@nopogo Thank you very much!) I will try to place rules directly in workshop mod. You can try to brew some beverage by yourself, I was able to score 52 points once =)

Hi @merzlot Unfortunately after half an hour searching on the internet I still don't know how to download your game from steam workshops. I would have liked to try your game. However, I read the rules ;) Seems like an interesting game with great art.

@incomplete Thank you! :) There is only one way to play it from workshop - it is to download Tabletop Simulator and install this mod.

If anything, you win at board games for going the extra length and actually making a Tabletop Simulator mod, which is a game I actually have (it keeps crashing or slowing down on my computer, so odds are that I still won't be able to play it, which is a mayor bummer...).

Well, anyways, the game actually looks very enjoyable. Mixing brews seems to be a fun concept for a tabletop game, so at the very least, it looks novel. The artwork seems great as well. You really went full throttle on this one.

Here's hoping that your entry gets enough notoriety, as board games I've seen so far seem to be struggling because of the entry barriers. In behalf of my team, congratulations of taking such a creative approach on this media! Cheers! :whale:
