- I found the movement very smooth and easy to control. The music and sound effects are nicely done. I enjoy being the bartender with illegal potions and the danger it brings. However, I feel that the game could use more explanations for creating different color potions. Some of the customer timers felt a bit too fast, mainly because of the travel time to the back room. Awesome job on the game, and I hope to see you make something for the next Jam as well!

In a kingdom that has outlawed potion making, an herbalist turned brew-master continues to sell potions on the underground market from the back of their tavern. Serve both ale and potions to customers, but don't get caught selling potions when the guards make their rounds!

Fun and interesting hybrid of stealth and shop management
Simple, but working concept. The mechanics work, but there isn't too much to it. The scope is kept to a very manageable level which is good, lots of games get too big big of a scope and bloat up to an unmanageable project.
Very charming art, I especially like the main menu art.
Thanks so much! It will have a simple upgrades system and a way to win fairly soon. We weren't able to make it happen before the deadline so had to ship without those.
