Oh wow, I found a hidden gem among all these games (pun intended) I really like the medieval aspect of the game, the art and the music work so great together
As for the gameplay I just couldn’t stop playing this game until I beat all 19 levels, for a moment I was thinking you made like a thousand haha
I would have loved to have a small item or something that you always know the weight of and can always be used (just to test and weigh new items) and perhaps making more room in the Scale too
But overall the constrains provided for the game made it really fun and challenging, great work!
Hey, it's so great knowing you could play it until the end. We didn't have time to put most of the tutorials the game required, so we were worried that no one would be able to finish it.
About the weight scale, we put only 4 slots for simplicity, and because we didn't think the levels could require more than that. But some ended up being harder than we expected.
About having a reference item, the idea is that you can get to know the exact weight of the ingredients used in previous levels (from the recipe book), so you can use any of those ingredients to compare to the new ones.
I'm a bit confused, still! Do the synergies overwrite the initial number? I'm a little stupid when it comes to numbers. :D
Love the art style! keep it up!
You have to think of them as the base weigh plus what the synergies adds, so a tentacle plus an eye is like this: 10 + 25 - 10. Thanks you, we are glad people are liking the art!
Ah.. That makes sense. Thanks for clarifying!
Good application of the theme. The art is really medieval and I really like that! However, the gameplay is a little confusing. Also, great work with the game page!
Thanks! It's true that when we started testing, we found that we didn't communicate the rules well enough. We have fun making it so maybe we can polish those aspects when the ranking ends.
