This looks amazing, and the gameplay is simple but entertaining. I love the idea and how you executed the theme.

reality-blind 2017-12-05 00:20

Just brilliant ! We love everything in this game !

bradleysmith 2017-12-05 00:21

I'm already in love with this game. Moving the characters arms around in time with the music is adorable. ^_^ Pouring liquid feels so nice. It's beautifully built and a real neat idea. Mad respect to you guys. :)

I loved this game even if the amount of potion was hard to get!

angry-squirrels 2017-12-05 09:48

This was SO GOOOD ! I love the designs and animations so muuuuuuuuuuch ! It was crazy funny, experimenting all the differents combinations.

I hope you get a good rank !

I though that "meal preparation games" was a boring genre and would be over representated for this theme. But you innovated a lot, proving me wrong. I liked it a lot, the fact that you brew the potion is really smart !

Just in love <3

A very funny LD game. Well done.

youbestrong 2017-12-05 19:15

Ahaha, I'm so bad at this but I love it! It looks great and horrified buyers expression is hilarious.

rmc 2017-12-05 19:35

Your game is brilliant, I love the concept, it's a really neat idea, one of the best entries I ever played on LD. I have nothing more to add, well done.

beebo-studios 2017-12-05 20:04

The idea feels really fresh, I've never seen something like this before. The art direction is also amazing! I feel like Professor Plutonium creating the Powerpuff Girls. Love it! The only thing lacking are some stakes or some kind of goal. Maybe the customer gets annoyed while his time is running out? But all in all it is just plain fun to play your game!

wowa 2017-12-05 22:29

Very relaxing, entertaining and damn good lookig! :D

mr-matt 2017-12-06 00:13

Very creative! I love waiting to see the result of my creation and how they rank it! Very good job!

tinyworlds 2017-12-06 00:13

This is sooo good! I love the characters, I just wanna dance along with the music and the game concept is so fresh and unique. Really well done!!

mochakingup 2017-12-06 04:32

This is a fun little game, and emphasize on one thing that I love most in games, customization! with a pinch of randomness! Visual is simple but real charming and well executed. Although I'd argue that more doesn't necessarily worse in this case. Still, a great game overall, great job!

royoyo 2017-12-06 13:18

Love the Idea and Art Style! Great anticipatoin for result that will come out!

gruhh 2017-12-06 13:35

Very beautiful and well finished game! I liked the main mechanic. Congratulations for the game.

Jogo muito bonito e bem acabado! Gostei da mecânica principal. Parabéns pelo jogo.

tomer-cool 2017-12-06 14:34

Amazing game, Very fun, charming graphics. My favorite LD40 game so far.

burgee 2017-12-06 22:08

My highest rated game so far. The cartoon graphics are perfect, making a monstrosity by accident is hilarious, and getting it right is so rewarding.

Not much to say, no suggestions, just great!

sintel 2017-12-06 23:55

Crazy how this is very similar to my own entry!

You've got way better art and fluid physics going on tho'.

togimaro 2017-12-07 11:28

Absolutely incredible! Your art style is amazing, really fun I can play this for hour x) The fluid physics is sooo satisfying Maybe my favorite! So polish and fun!

Awesome job!

*My best score is 87% :D *

regisrquoi 2017-12-07 18:25

Beautiful and cute game, I played for way too long. Don't think I can get over 86%. I'm not sure if it fits the theme that well, but who cares ? It feels super-polished and anyone can get it pretty easily I think. It's great that you also put some images to tell what the potion does. Super useful when you're not a native english speaker.

It's incredible to see how much time the game can get our attention with verry few mechanics. That's so cool; I wish I could go back in time to do a bit more of that in my entry :O

sbarrio 2017-12-08 20:45

Amazing entry, love the mechanic, the controls and the overall mood and feel of the game. Superb job guys!

lamossus 2017-12-08 20:59

81% was the best I could get. Really cute art style but gets repetitive pretty fast. Overall really nice game!

owc 2017-12-08 21:57

Like the art style. Awesome entry!

tweedle 2017-12-08 22:14

my only suggestion is to turn down the scream sound haha :smile: otherwise fantastic job!

mrtroy 2017-12-08 23:27

I really love this game. I've played it entirely too long. :D

tuism 2017-12-09 07:52

Really interesting! The graphics are gorgeous and the use of that fluid simulation as a mechanic is genius :D

The short term goals were fun to work out - slightly frustrating in the beginning without much of an immediate feedback, but once you get over that hump it made sense. The drawing being a very different style to the actual goblin threw me a bit, and also I expected the bottom right goblin to match up to the potion I was dumping in the pot. I think it would be better to have the next goblin come in later because it's a obvious focal point and can be misleading.

Would love some longer term goals :)

Nice work!

hooraygil 2017-12-10 19:20

Beautiful game! A little minus for flash and the fact it get's repititive really fast! But I enjoyed every second of it! :D

My best score was 85% I think!

really good work!

breathless 2017-12-10 20:51

Incredible! I wish I could do at least half of that in only 24h. :D My best score was 89%.

wildgamut 2017-12-11 19:26

You've got such a creative little game there! The visuals are adorable and very polished, the gameplay is simple enough that it's easy to pick up, but complex enough that it takes a while to master. You've implemented the theme in a pretty unique way as well. Really loving this! I hope to see this system implemented as a mechanic in one of your future games :) Great work!

ddrkirbyisq 2017-12-12 03:04

Perfect in almost every way! Great job guys, this is going to bring joy to a lot of raters this LD :)

zaratustra 2017-12-14 22:45

hench haunch

hisfantor 2017-12-15 22:35

the only bad thing to say is that's a flash game, the rest is great :)

lukuluk 2017-12-16 16:29

Nice game! I feel like it's perhaps a little bit too exacting, but I had fun to build these creatures :)

franklins-ghost 2017-12-19 08:16

The graphics for this are fantastic, loved the different monsters you could create and all the little movements. The way the liquid moved in the jars was also nicely done, made it enjoyable to play around with. The colour and character designs were also a great choice in making a cute light game with an interesting mechanic.

lapapagena 2017-12-19 17:00

This is incredibly well done! Also very entertaining. Good job!

2017-12-19 19:10

Very cute, well made game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2J0D0dmydc

axoona 2017-12-23 22:04

it's a very funny entry! the graphics and animations are perfect. 78% something was as far I could get ;)

ryusui 2017-12-24 01:58

I love this game in so many respects. The goofy goblins, the reactions when you create an abomination (by your customers' standards), the general style and gameplay...everything's spot on. I'd love to see this expanded into a full-fledged game.

One curious thing I noticed: am I right that the game is not quite as exacting as it looks? Like it seems to me like there are certain "thresholds" of each ingredient to produce a specific effect; i.e. you won't get proportionally bigger arms for each minuscule drop of Buff Boy you put in, but you will get bigger arms for each X amount you put in. Or am I clutching at straws here?

simon-stalhandske 2017-12-27 21:04

Such a lovely cute game. Super juicy, I adore the pouring mechanic, which is super well made. Music and sounds are cute as heck. Loved experimenting with the different potion options and getting the customers super bitter. Had a hard time actually doing well at the game but that didn't matter for the experience.

What do you choose for your leisure time? I don't usually have a lot of free time that I can light up for myself. But at this time I try to do what pleases me. For example, I like to visit https://www.betsofa.com/ . There are some of the best playgrounds. There is something special for everyone here. I like to bet on sports. And what do you like?

2021-02-22 15:23

I prefer gambling. Online casino games are popular today because it is more convenient for people to play at home. And I am no exception. I also read similar https://collegecandy.com/2020/11/27/how-online-games-continue-to-evolve/ articles regularly. To stay up to date on innovations in this field of games.
