That was extremely silly. Nice jam game! I think some goofy sounds could have helped the mood even more, but its a jam. The physics were super well-done!

very much fun to play i went through 6 levels i think... a few sound effects would go a long way... everything else was well done. great game

Wow, nice game! Who knew doing alchemy as a horse could be so hard and fun! :D

Really solid, I loved it! The physics were very well done as well, it's not easy, but you can control it with quite a bit of precision. Looks really nice as well!

This is such a silly, charming idea. I had a smile on my face as I was playing. This needs sound and a more levels. I want more of this siliness. Great job!

Thanks everyone, I'm glad you enjoyed playing! 😊 Yeah I wanted to add sound effects, and maybe music, but I finished Sunday twenty minutes before the deadline 😅 If I decide to keep working on it, that'll definitely be in my priorities!

Such a great idea! Physics games with interesting mechanics are always incredibly fun to play with.

I could definitely see people buying a polished version of a game like this on Steam!

Juggling the ingredients is quite entertaining. Came for the alchemy, but ended up just horsing around with the physics.

i finally understand the struggles of horse alchemists... this game is really fun and challenge is really intriguing! love it

Horse Alchemist Simulator !

I like the idea. I don't usually play much of these type of simulator games but I really enjoy this one. I find myself getting rid of all the things that I don't need first instead of properly putting things in. This is really a wasteful way to do alchemy so I am glad I'm not one :P

Very good idea, and very neat execution, congrats! I particularly like the fine physics controls allowing very precise movements... or just to kick ingredients you don't need in orbit.

This is probably the most fun I've had with any of the games I've tried yet. Great job. Really tough, but compels me to keep playing. Some sounds and a little more polish and you've got a great game here.

Well, that's what I call a brilliant idea. :D Had a lot of fun with the game! Sometimes an ingredient got stuck in the air when I threw it too fast, but apart from that the physics system worked really well and all the challenges were fun to solve.

Nice take on the theme! Physics are really fun to play around. Good job.

turquoise-moon 2021-10-07 23:18

That was a lot of fun. Its not too easy, not too hard

Nice entry! Good work on mechanics, it is challenging enough but not undoable.

Good luck!

Really fun concept!

The only thing the game lacks is sounds, but other than than, it's really really good! If I'd like to nitpik a bit I would say that there are some collision glitches, but it's really minor.

Really great entry!

Nice game. I made it to the third stage, but couldn't get the last ingredients in without messing up. I like the concept and use of physics to put the ingredients in the pot. Only suggestion I have is to make it so you can add the ingredients in any order, because I kept failing on the first stage and didn't know I had to put them in the correct order.

Great game, very fun to play!

Very funny idea. I like the art style and the physics is well configured. Apart from more audio effects only more levels are missing.

Maybe the recipes could be randomly generated and just get longer?

Nice that you did it in Bevy btw :smile:

Such a simple concept and executed very well! I had a lot of fun fumbling everything around.
