A very cute and fun potion mixing game with a seriously cool and complex puzzle game hidden within it.

I was randomly drawn in by the smug cat art on the thumbnail and had to play the game and I'm super happy I did. Ignoring the rather rough/low quality UI elements of the game there is a really solid game foundation here that I had a ton of fun exploring.

Normally I can't stomach puzzle games but the "inner mind" shadow puzzles were really cool and well designed. Even a dumb*** like me can just figure it out with enough attempts and trial and error. But despite my lack of braincells I can tell the puzzles are well designed and the mechanics have a lot of depth to them and are used in really interesting ways as the complexity games more and more tough as you go through the game.

The potion mixing was really basic, just put in the right number of colours and success! But it was the accomplishment of finishing the puzzles that made the potion mixing part feel worth it cos you know you had to work for that answer.

The character art is fantastic and I really loved seeing the cat's various facial expressions and the seriously diverse customer sprites. They were all super cute.

The music is good, fit the game well I thought and didn't become annoying. Some SFX would have been nice for summoning shadows/them dying/you dying/switch flipping/etc but honestly it wasn't a huge deal and didn't really stop me from enjoying the game.

Overall a seriously fun experience that I wasn't expecting. With more polish, more patients and more puzzle mechanics I could see this being a really fun game if it was developed further.

Well done! Love a nice puzzle game! The cat puzzles are hard but fun, really require thinking. They are also very well designed too! The last puzzle is just brilliant, hard yes but it's so rewarding once you figured it out. Also the cat and other characters are cute, giving much character to the game. Nice job!

And here come the nitpicks. I don't really like the potion puzzles, feels like they are a bit disjoint with the cat puzzles at the moment. Would need much more connections between them besides the story to justify that. It also take me quite a while to understand that red is reset and green is OK, which I guess needs some more UI work.

But overall, this is a very solid puzzle game! I enjoy it quite a lot. Well done!

Very well done. The puzzles were challenging but not overly hard. Only gripe is lack of context clues. It took me too long to figure out the alchemy system, and i didn't notice the movement counter for a while. No buttons highlight, or give any indication of what's clickable vs what's not. Overall solid entry.

Great mix of puzzle game and alchemy system! Love the characters too

I also see a lot of potentials for a good story line.

Keep it up!

Nicely done! I'm a sucker for cat games.
+ The core mechanic of clone jutsu is well-implemented and you expand on it really well
+ Very likeable character art, and solid music
+ Puzzles are challenging without being unfair
- The alchemy UI is quite unfinished. You can also intentionally fail a recipe to skip character dialog, if you want.
- The movement limit on your clones could be communicated better. It took me a while to figure out exactly what the paw prints represented, and that they only drained if the clone changed squares.
- The art in the clone gameplay section is noticeably rougher than the character portraits, and it's unclear why.
