As a potion master when playing our game you will be pressed against time and the unstable nature of all elements around you. Hurry to collect energy orbs to both use them to attack the enemy boss and craft them into stronger potions. But be weary, the boss learns and adapts to the play style by what attacks you use. When crafting, keep track of your potions and energy orbs and make sure you don’t let them become unstable or else you’ll be in a pickle!

Controls:

WASD to move
Left shift to dash
Spacebar to jump (center since it is alone)
E to cook orbs that are held
F to consume orbs that are in hand. Character in center with an orb in each hand with a table on the right so we can do E to cook on the right of screen and consume with F on the left
Left click to regular attack
Hold right click to charge attacks. Character in center with arms out sending a small flame coming out of left for regular attack and a big flame coming out the right side for Right click charged attacks

How To Play:

Break the crystals on the floor to collect orbs for your potion.
You can consume the orbs for their power, but they become unstable if held for too long.
Use the stations and come up with better and stronger orbs to consume and defeat the constantly adapting golem.
Putting water orbs into the furnace, or fire orb into the cauldron will create a new element
When the station becomes un-stabilized for too long, it can explode and deal AOE damage.
Watch the bottom right bar to make sure you don't overcharge and hurt yourself.

I liked the concept of the game and the fact that what is unstable is the oven and the pot. I don't really know if it's a bug that comes from me but I couldn't see the tutorial so I don't understand what the difference is between the cauldron and the oven but otherwise bravo for the game. And also there is a bug on the oven, I was gluing the oven and when it became unstable it threw me very high in the sky.

@red911 Thank you so much for your feedback! I am glad you liked the concept of the game. This was our first ever game jam, with half of our members being freshman and completely new to game designing, so the fact that you even played our game makes us so happy. We wanted the difference between the furnace and oven to be that if you put a water orb into the furnace (or fire orb into the cauldron) that you create the new element steam you can use! Unfortunately 48 hours was our time limit rather than 72 due to us having classes after the weekend, this is why there are cubes rather than rocks that break apart in game, as well as a missing tutorial. We appreciate your feedback!
