Collect flowers and brew them in the cauldron to make potions. Some potions and good, some are bad, so are not what they seem.

- WASD Keys to move around or arrows.
- SPACE to read or talk to NPC
- Left Mouse Click on cross to drop item
- LEFT MOUSE CLICK on slot to use potion
- LEFT MOUSE CLICK on Flower while near cauldron to brew it

I really do apologise it is not as complete as I would have like it. I came to a realisation you really need to have a toolkit ready. Not remake stuff each time. Next time. I really loved doing Pixel art for my first time too :)

I hope you like the core mechanic.

@scottthoo I ran out of time learn how to draw the player and animate it, like many things
@willoftw, Yeah really need to have menus premade for these jams. They are always rushed at the end

Feels like a nice start! I really like the look of the graphics that were finished. I... think... I managed to sneak past the slimes and make the golden potion?

I died to some slimes, and I don't know if there was a restart button or not, but i had to reload the page. I like the artwork, and the game is rather fun too. Nice work!
