Thanks for taking the time to leave such detailed comments!!
- For the time limit, we intended the game to be short so that it’s challenging enough. The time should be displayed in the upper right hand corner! You start with 3 minutes (180 seconds) and as you present offerings, the time limit increases. Typically, the first play-through will get you to understand the dynamics and the second round you will master it :)
- The incentive to brew the longer potions comes in the sense that you don’t need to sit there waiting for it to complete, and you can work on other things such as crafting in the meantime. (Games like Goodgame Empire have this inverse dynamic for coin collection.) However, we hear ya and we will definitely collect more feedback and reconsider this aspect!
We really appreciate your playthrough and thorough feedback - please let us know what you think about these points!
