Welcome at Danub, the world biggest import-export potion company.
You'll work every single day (and night) of your life, your coworkers will be your brand new family.
Your job is to pack the potions concocted by your fellow alchemists and stabilize them so they'll be ready for transit. But be careful, they are very unstable (but also very expensive) so work quickly and well!
WOW. This is really really cool. The aesthetic really really sells it. I love the little touches like how if you drop the plant guy the fairy brings him back up. Reminds me of the potion making in Pajama Sam: No Need to Hide When it’s Dark Outside. It was very finicky to get the potions into the box. I love how the potions move around and clank down though. I couldn’t tell if there was a recipe I was supposed to be following. It seemed like I just got points for doing all of the steps.
Also, the potions each having an environmental effect was too cool. Really fun piece here!
Very good exploration of the theme and cool aesthetic, but the screen is hard to perceive duo to saturation of elements. A tutorial or a level with less options would help the progression in my opinion.
Oh, wow! Really loving the art and all the details! I was a bit overwhelmed at first but playing around a bit more took care of that. I had a blast playig this! Great work!
This is just great! I love the game mechanic, art style, music and sound design, just wow.
It took me a minute to realize what to do, but after that it was pure fun to play. Only thing I could not figure it out is how to use mandragore. I also wish items that you can use were highlighted after mousing over them, that would make it easier to realize what you can use at the start.
This game is gorgeous and really fun to interact with :) I feel like it would have been nice to have the recipes open simultaneously along with mixing screen- opening and flipping between going back and forth felt a bit tedious.
I LOVE the pixies that pick up the things you drop, unfortunately they got stuck in a loop with the mandrake root and kept dropping it and picking it back up :D
The graphics are so good! We agree that it was a little overwhelming at first and it took a while to figure out where everything was and how to use it. We got a lot of mmmhing in our playthrough. Love all the little details and Amazon references, though!
On the one hand, the graphics are authentic and beautiful and the mechanics in the game are cool. On the other hand, the graphics seem to interfere with the gameplay a little. Visually well done art due to uniform digitalization, dazzles in the eyes. Because of this, it is not always clear which elements are active and which are not. But in general, if the pryvfknut came out very nice), I especially liked the recipe book.
Wow I enjoyed this very much! I liked all the little details that you managed to implement. I have no negative feedback, I just want to ask how to use the mandrake? Did I miss something?
Yes it's a bit confusing, in fact you have to shake the mandrake over a potion in order to use it instead of putting it in a box. We couldn't implement it properly due to lack of time, but we plan to fix this and some other things in a future release
Really good looking, well polished game! Unless I missed a way to reset three pipes at the top of the screen I've managed to brake them by removing the potion while pipe was shaking.
I like the aesthetics of the game. I agree with the screen being a bit too saturated. I got overwhelmed by the love potions letters to a point it was too much. I think some sort of tutorial or progression would be helpful. Great work overall, I like all the details you put into this!
Really cool aesthetics! Gameplay-wise would have wished for a bit more easing into it with maybe some very simple potions as it was initially a bit overwhelming. After getting into the rhythm it did capture the feel of making and shipping potions though :D
this game is beautiful, but I also think that is difficult to find the things to combine because of that 😅 the mechanic is cool and fits the theme perfectly, good job 😄
This game is gorgeous! Art is just superb - so much detail and cool animations! The worker fairy that restocks ingredients is such a nice touch. And the sfx are great as well - they create an immersive soundscape of the workshop. I think that the sfx for "well-packed" is the same as the sfx for "you failed miserably" 😆 It's a tremendous amount of work for a jam time.
Instructions included in the game are clear and well-presented. Except for the mandragora and salt - there seems to be no mention anywhere that those you need to shake, and I only found that out by reading comments here (to exactly try to find out how to stuff mandragora into a bottle ;)). You could mention that on the LD page - I bet it would help some confused players.
It would be nice if we could pin the recipe cards to the side of the screen for quick reference. But I guess the fact that we can't do that was a design decision to bump up difficulty - and that's just fine :).
Amazing graphics and real attention to detail in all the potions. What a joy to play! Making the potions is hard because there's so many and each one is so different, but luckily taking your time doesn't seem to have an effect. Sometimes the controls bugged out and I couldn't interact with anything anymore and had to refresh the page. I never could put the mandrakeish root thing into the bottle. Overall enjoyed this and loved the satire re: Amazon, good stuff, très bon!
Nice visuals, and audio, but I was just a bit too stupid to get all mechanics you have :) Like shaking the salt, or being unable to put a mangragore root into the potion :) Anyways, amazing game, thanks!

The room filled with love with "MMMMH" was the selling point for me.
It really has the feeling of the old point(nclick with all the fiddling around !
I just couldn't make the crying plant work :'(
Great job guys !

Nice work all!
Overall very, very good. Congrats!
