Cute neat little game! I really liked the sprites and the very happy atmosphere it gives, a small little tune (some simple music) would be great to fit into the environment! Also I would love it if the controls could also integrate with the mouse (like left click is burn and right click is push (but that might be personal preference)). Other than that it certainty feels very well made, I truly enjoyed the helpful tips like showing what buttons to use, and the tab showcasing what I need to find and where I should go. ^-^

- Very cute short game, alchemy theming is basic but functional, unfortunately the shadows theming is not really implemented as a mechanic outside of the darkness in the cave which is superficial and kind of boring. However this did give me VERY strong indie story game vibes a la stardew valley. This game is kind of dead without any music or NPCs but I can super respect the vision you were going for! Make more games! You have a lot of potential!

Tell us about your game!
You're playing as an alchemist who needs to go out and collect some ingredients for a potion request. Two ingredients must be collected, one in a cave and the other in the forest you live in.
You have the ability to push and burn different objects, use those abilities to access different areas. The buttons you need to use are always displayed on screen, and you don't need to use your mouse for anything.
Please play using Google Chrome if possible. The window displays best on that browser.
