Thanks a ton, that means a lot! We are so happy with all the feedback, it really motivates us to keep going and iterating on the core concept. Thanks for playing :-)

I see what you mean, the furniture can be a lot, especially when they get thrown around like crazy. In a previous version we had the player character be knocked back every time they touched an obstacle, which made the game super clumsy. We still have a way to go before we properly nail the game feel, but it's a step on the way.

Thank you for playing and commenting :-)

That is so kind of you to say, thank you so much! Really means a lot, and helps us get motivated to look into further development :-)

We really have to prioritize fixing the mac version! We fought with tooth and nail the last days in order to do everything we could to improve the performance for the mac users. It means a lot that you like the game, even though the general experience might have been suboptimal. A cooperative mode would be wild!

Anyway, it's nice to read about the game perspective from a mac user, as I was afraid the performance would be too bad for the game to even be playable. Thanks a ton for playing and commenting :-)

That's awesome, we are so glad to hear that :-D Thanks a bunch for commenting and playing our game, it really inspires us to going forward!

Thank you for playing and commenting! We really wanted to give the game a tone of goofy and light fun, that easily could be contained in a short gameplay loop for the jam, so it's great to read about your experiences playing. It means a lot, thank you so much <3

I agree, we realized early on that we had created a "hole" in the gameplay loop, each time the player had to wait around for a potion. We had hoped that for most circumstances, the fact that you could push around furniture and throw around ingredients would be engaging enough, but those are all surrounding features, and not really adding anything to the main gameplay loop. Having the clients rummage around is a great suggestion that we definitely will look in to, if we are to develop the game any further! :-)

Thanks a ton for commenting and playing our game. We hope you've had a great game jam :-D

Thanks a ton, it means a lot. We are really happy you liked our game. Thanks for playing! :-)

Thanks a bunch, it means a lot to read that you've had a good experience.
I hope you've had a great jam! Thanks for playing :-)

Hahaha thanks friend! Naming a game is always hard, we had a bunch of different names considered, like "Brew Brawl", "Apothecary Apprentice" and "Potion Party". For the longest time the itch draft page was just called "The Wacky Wizard Shop" until we decided to find a proper name :D

Thank you for playing, we are happy you liked our game <3

Hahaha thank you so much! The late game balance was a progression challenge we spend a lot time trying to get right. As a large part of the game is relying on the chaotic nature of physics it's very difficult to avoid that those annoying moments can happen. Hopefully it didn't ruin your experience completely :-)

Thank you for playing, it really means a lot! <3

Hahaha it is super awesome that you acknowledge that small character element! It is what you could call a happy little accident. In the early prototypes of the game, the apprentice would stand still when reaching the mouse pointer, but it really didn't have the right feeling of urgency and chaos, so instead we gave them a continuous force so the player could never stop moving!

Thanks for the kind words and playing our game, it means a lot <3

Many many thanks for such a nice comment! It is super motivating to read, and is one of my favourite parts of participating in game jams!

I hope you have had a good jam as well! I really enjoyed playing Time Mayhem, it had some super great polished elements!

Hahaha thank you so much! We have seen many different ways to play the game, and guest trapping is undoubtedly a viable strategy ...Until they start punching the furniture!

Thanks for playing! :-)

Thanks! We are really happy that the Overcooked tone is shinning through so well. We are happy you like the game :-)

Thank you so much! We are discussing many different avenues to take the game, and multiplayer would definitely would be very reasonable, especially if we were to lean more towards the Overcooked way of doing things. It means so much that you have taken the time to comment on our game, it means a lot <3

Thanks a ton for the kind words! I haven't been able to try Ratatime yet, but it is very high on my list of next games to play, as I really think your art-style and imagery have been captivating, every time I have browsed the jam submission page :-D

Thank you so much for playing and commenting! It really means a lot and motivates us to keep working on the game and engaging with players <3

I hope you have had a great jam!

Thanks a ton for the kind words! Since the start we tried to hit the same tone as Overcooked, so we are super stoked that it seems to resonate with a lot of players. We had to change the soundtrack at one of the last days of development because we were uncertain if we had the proper rights for the music we used originally. I can't say how many hours I have spend browsing Royalty Free soundtracks searching for fantasy / medieval themed music that still was kind of goofy, energetic and fun.

If we decide to continue working on the project, we will definitely see if we can find some more genre fitting music for the core game!

Thanks for playing! <3

Hahaha that sounds awesome! It is exactly the kind of magic moment we hope to create for the players! Hopefully it wasn't too difficult to hit the right people with the potions?

Thanks for playing and writing such a nice comment! :-)
