  • Cute game with interesting puzzles! Really like how puzzles are being introduced with each lever a new mechanics. The controls felt a bit junky. I would like to see more enemies and more of a variety for mixing, Inventory could have more space and also there could be space for making mistakes like Mixing wrong ingredients. Great game overall!
  • Great theme interpretation and implementation. The game was enjoyable and the in game instructions were very well placed/timed. One of the gems I wasn't able to pick up for some reason. All the others seemed fine. It was the blue one on the first level. The art style was excellent. The sound design was great and attributed to a fitting overall vibe for the game. Great job!

Enjoyable experience with a considerable amount of content to get through. Very creative idea and spin on the challenge. Unsure if the game's UI is supposed to show four inventory spaces if it seems like you can only use two?  If the other spaces are for a different kind of item, maybe you could give them a distinct flair to make it seem like they have another significance. Not being able to hold more than two items make sit hard to experiment with and remember gem combinations.

Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to add a visual indicator for the two bag slots that are blocked until you pick up a bag expansion exploring the map.
