Ludum Dare #49compo
Potions Of Yore
As the Brewmaster you are responsible for brewing potions. But beware! If you do not mix fast enough the potion will become unstable, and you will meet a most unfortunate demise!
Instructions:
There are 3 colors: Red, Green, Blue
You must mix the correct amounts to brew the correct potion (match the output color)
Click & hold the pour button for each color to start pouring
The inputs can go below zero, to counter-act this you need to pour in the other colors
Red + Green = Yellow
Green + Blue = Cyan
Blue + Red = Magenta

This game is an interesting idea and could be really cool with some polish. Unfortunately for me the physics glitched and the liquid got stuck in the pipes on a few occasions. This made it so I didn't have enough of a certain ingredient in some cases. Like I would need ALL the red and about 5% was stuck in the pipe.

I love how the sign swings when you click on it, cool mechanic

Cool light and fluid mixing effects! I reached Level 7.

Great idea and realisation. Would be cool to be able to more precisely hit the correct amount.

nice concept

I really enjoyed the idea, and the physics were a nice touch, but I still found it sort of difficult to understand what I was doing. Couldn't get past the first potion. For next time I'd suggest either having clearer instructions, an in-game tutorial or maybe just even some tutorial-esque pics and gifs to demonstrate how to properly play on your itch page or in the game itself.

That the only potion game I'm able to win on that jam. it's just mixing but it's quite intesting and relaxing. i wish music was adding to the mood of the game

Really neat way to implement fluids in your game.

Simple and interesting concept which could work well for a chill game, but having a rather tight timer doesn't go well with the mechanic imo. I'm also joining with the others above that some music or sound effects could add a lot to the mood.

Wow cool idea! very unick) but calculating system is too laggy and its sad( and it will be better with something more looking liquid.

Mixing colors like that is fun!

Fun little game, physics works well !

Very neat, my best streak is just 4 potions and I ran out of red liquid during that game. I couldn't complete the potion.

Loved the graphics and aesthetics. Just too bad you didn't have any music in the background, but that's understandable for a compo. Good job mate :)
