This game is great. The interpretation of the theme and implementation was amazing. However, I would have liked it if selling something felt more rewarding, but whatever you sell gets replaced instantly. Maybe if it was a scrollable list, it would've felt more immersive that you have so many customers. Also, I noticed there are 2 water elixirs? But these nitpicks are not too important, though.

:D

Developer

A scrollable list was the original plan, but it was cut due to time constraints.  I didn't notice two items sharing the same name during my final quality check. I guess that is what happens when working after midnight.

This game is great, and I loved it! The only thing I disliked was I found it was hard to tell when quests were given / updated, so it was sometimes hard to tell what my goal was. Really fun game loop though, only stopped cause I beat it.

Developer

The quests were more for a tutorialization, but I can understand that, we didn't have time to create an animation for its updating.  So many items of polish and so little time!

Awesome game dude, can't believe you guys have so much in just 3 and 1/2 days. Had a blast playing this and this could easily be uploaded on steam or even better a mobile game.

I could literally play this all day. I had to stop myself. If this was a mobile game I'd be on it alllll the time lol

Everything in this game has such a coherent vibe, from the character names to the artstyle, the music, systems are amazing. So cosy! Love it!! Though after a couple upgrades the game does become quite easy :)

We did try to balance it towards the easy side for the game jam.

Very good that it was a conscious decision! Amazing job :)

Really really nice art style! It's funny that I can "Harvest" the dragons but I do need to pay them gold HAHA! Fun game!

Very slick presentation. I feel guilty about harvesting the dragons. Nicely done!

Developer

Don't feel guilty, they are allowing you to do so, so you can give them Gold.

Those names are hilarious! I loved the art style. It looks very polished. This reminds me of the old Wild Tangent games that had crafting mechanics. Well done!

The UI and art in this game are amazing! The only thing I felt is it got a bit repetitive but really fun game!

I love this game, the part with the upgrade is the best part for me. One of my favorite game.

Oh hey, samesies on the name! I like your take on the theme. We did a dragon themed one too but took the physically scaling route. Do check out our Dragon Scales too :))

A really cute game! I like the style and the puzzle aspects! It was really easy to understand what I was supposed to do, and I like the setting and idea behind it!
