Nice game. It's not very innovative, but it's fun :-)
You can't go wrong with a match-3 game. It's not what I expect to see in a Ludum Dare but it's still very well polished. Congrats!
Really solid game, works perfect without any glitches. Would love to see music added.
This worked like a charm. :) The sounds could have used a bit more oomph but a really enjoyable take on a familiar genre. Solid job. :)
Implementation of theme is time-based again...sorry to say but after LD27, which had the theme "10 Seconds", I got sick of similar games! Terribly sorry, but 1 star for theme.
Solid entry, so may deserve a 3 overall, but in fact, the game gives only a little few extras.
I can appreciate it only by words: so go on with game developement! It's promising!
good job!
Solid and polished.
Really polished and solid! However the game is strikingly similar to that popcap game bejeweled blitz, even the name (alchemy / alchemist).. a little more thought on the gameplay would have been nice
Pretty standard match-3 game though apart from that I don't have any complaints, it was pretty polished.
Very polished and smooth. High scores did some weird things for me. Gave me a top score for a terrible game and didn't give me access for a good game.
I really enjoyed it because it was fun, and fit the theme. To improve, I would come up with a more original idea, but overall I like it!
Very nice gamplay! Felt a lot like Candy Crush which I'm sure was a good source of inspiration. Thumbs up!
It's bejeweled, but I don't care because it's lovely! :)
Familiar gameplay, but well polished! Btw, I didn't have sound in Firefox on Windows.
a sort of candy crashed but polish and funny!
A solid entry, flawless! Maybe the theme reference is a bit stretched, but game is fun and polished, good work!
Not innovative, just another match 3 style game with a tiny difference, but - solid, professional work. Could have used some (generated would be enough music)
As it has already been said, it's not innovative and the take on the theme is not one of the best, but it looks and behaves like a charm. Good job.
Nice match four game, well done. I included it in my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/Sii3dnpSvEI
In Opera there's no audio.
In Firefox: After some time my score said "NaN".
It didn't feel like I had to look at the potions I have to brew because I can't seem to really work towards the igredients.
My highest score was 12 potions with 432 ingredients while not caring for the potion ingredients and 6 potions with 243 ingredients while trying to go for the needed ingredients :/
Really nice impression with good clean graphics and smooth animations.
Audio did not play for me in Chrome but I know how much of an issue audio on the web still can be.
I think programming a match-3 under 48h could be a good exercise, I should try once ^^
It's nice to have a leaderboard, but we don't know who is the first of all, it's very frustrating.
Incredibly well-polished. Lots of nice subtle touches, such as distinct icon silhouettes, click+drag support and clean UI layout. My score hit "NaN" at one point.
Really polished piece - nice having the high-score table in there as well. If you continue on with this, it'd be nice to see some special blocks, or having things like matching 4 or 5 pieces counts as more ingredients.
