The idea is very interesting. The instructions are a bit hard to understand, but I clicked around for a bit and quickly figured out how to play the game :sweat_smile:

Quite like the pixelly art style here. Game would really benefit from sound effects! It would also be nice to have some randomly varying effects on the player's health.
I also noticed a bug - you can pick up two elixirs simultaneously and then you're stuck with one of them forever.
So many options! Really like the graphics and the gameplay, but combining all the different elixirs becomes quite cumbersome after mixing the potions for several minutes. Still, great effort and really love the style!
Unfortunately I could not open the .app file on macOS (Mojave)
Nice game!
I like the premise, and the art style is cool. Could maybe use a "how to play" screen but it wasn't *that* difficult to figure out. Good work!
I like the idea of an alchemy game, but the randomness felt like I was not accomplishing anything. I never knew what would happen, no formula was reliable, making me feel like I was just watching instead of making any decisions whatsoever. But yeah, I know how hard it is. Good job, nonetheless!
