- quirky little game where the themes fit together well enough, I kept missing my throws, skill issue, but it was fun to play for 5 minutes and stress over new recipes, cute art style too!

This was really hard because it wasn't clear which icon in the recipe corresponded to the crafting station needed to do that thing, especially with the meat blessing issue. The time before recipe corruption is so short that if you make one mistake, you will likely fail. There were a ton of times I was putting what looked like the raw ingredient on the recipe into the cauldron and it wouldn't light up green, even after doing it multiple times. And it only took 2 recipes before a 5 ingredient recipe showed up, which looks like it breaks the game. But I really like the art, music, and overall vibe and really wanted to keep progressing, so its a good gameplay loop.
Great looking game! Looks like we had some similar ideas hahaha
I really like the pickup and dropping mechanic, makes for a fun 'human fall flat' feel!
That was one of our inspirations so I'm glad we managed to convey that feeling! Thank you 😁
Took a bit of trial and error to realize which worktable does what, but overall you've got an interesting concept here.
Loved the fact that you are surrounded by other members basically watching you fumbling over the whole thing XD
Thank you! Yes we initially had huge text above the tables saying what they do but it was pretty distracting and we ran out of time to implement a better alternative 😅 thank you for the feedback!
it's too much, i'm stressed xD... Good game tho!
