cute art and soundtrack! mechanics were very self-explanatory and i liked the flavor scale mechanic, though i wish there were ways to cancel out undesired flavors, since many of the ingredients had 3-4 interacting flavors. also found myself wishing there was a way to start over on a drink! aside from that, i had fun with this one!

i enjoyed this one! gameplay felt very polished and the crafting system was satisfying. i liked the puzzle element of figuring out ingredient categories + patron orders at the beginning, though some felt ambiguous ("sense" potion instead of "focus" for the order that mentions working on a skill, or eyes not counting as a material from the body). also, clicking the achievements button on the pause screen threw a reference error that lost me some progress! other than those things, cute and atmospheric game!

i like the idea of the western setting - some music would've made it feel more immersive! movement was somewhat clunky for me, and the crafting system broke / got stuck for me the two times i let the counter fill up with customers. gameplay was very intuitive and easy to get a hang of!

heyy could i possibly join you folks? i'm also a (2D) character designer / character artist so there may be some overlap there but! the idea sounds cute and i'm free for the full month! my discord username is seventhseas if you'd like to reach out
