Wow, I don't even know where to start... You are amazing and thanks so much for this!
This is exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for as a game designer.
I actually intended to leave this project as is but you inspired me to make something more out of it.
Indeed, I struggled a lot making the game more approachable without killing the challenge, and your insight gave me a lot of ideas in that regard. I love your suggestion of easing out the player with fewer options at the beginning and learning new patterns and mechanics as they advance in the game.
I thought of adding a penalty for broken eggs to avoid the potion-spamming, but I think I liked even more your idea of making limited eggs and reward speed instead. I think I will try both and see what works best.
The white potion thing was intended as an Easter Egg, btw hahaha. I'm glad that you tried all possibilities there.
The truth is that you've seen much more future for a project like this than I did. And that's definitely something I want to learn from. Thanks again for taking your time!!
