I like the handdrawn art! (but I get a white square after customer 3 each day, not sure if that's on my end)

@denhette was this on the webgl version or the exe?
@lurkinmcclerkin, web version! Screenshot below. 2021-10-05 10_54_46-Window.png
@denhette Thanks for the report, I've been chasing this bug down all Dare and I think I managed to finally crush it. Mind trying one more time?
web version error
Worked really well for me! I really like the spin on the theme and those witty speech bubbles!
Cool game! I could not figure out what to do at the mixing phase. There was no button to sell the potion? Or I did something wrong there..
cool game ! could be a good start for something more advanced, like adding ingredient could lower some stats, etc... nice art too !
@moonblast What's the error? @chesiq The mixing phase window says you have to press A and D to mix the potion, you have to press them until you complete the brew! Once completed you're given the option to hand the potion off.
Potion Seller! My WebGL version worked fine. I made it to the second day after the Potion Seller Meme. Really great work, loved the art and interpretation of the theme.
How is this game not at the top?! I love the dialogues in the NPCs, well made game overall.
Web version doesnt start, but game is cool
@megamasterx I did not get a white square at all. I love the art. I think I would've liked to drag the ingredients to the mix and see the base change. Overall enjoyed it, thanks for letting me play!
I like the narrative and descriptions you added to the items! Very funny :)
Neat little game. Reminds me of one of the good old miniclip games.
Ah, a VA11 Hall-A fan? It's a nice little game. I can click through to add bases and stabilize the potion after I start mixing, although it doesn't seem to help mixing instability.
Nice job with the art, it's so nice. I loved the entire vibe of the game. It would be cool if you had to figure out what stats were needed from what the customers said, rather than it just telling you. It was still cool though :smile:
I really loved the art and the game itself is pretty fun. MY POTIONS ARE TOO STRONG FOR YOU, TRAVELLER!
Awesome game - art style is really detailed and adds so much to the overall mood of the game. Also liked the humour with some of the customer interactions and the ingredient descriptions.
One small thing that confused me on the first run through was the text being in red and starting with a '-' (e.g. "- Charisma 1/3") made me think I'd added something that negatively impacted the charisma at first, so I then avoided using that ingredient until I'd tried everything else haha
Really enjoyed it - great job!
I liked the art and the reason for the requests by the clients. It's a simple game that feels like a snack: I liked to take some bites out of it. WebGL worked fine for me.
Dialog and art are amazing
Ah, very similar to Lark and Kiririn's VA11 Hall-A! I enjoyed mixing potions, and the art was very cute.
Very funny story dialogs. Awesome game!
Lovely game, had a blast playing it, fun take on the theme and it looks really polished ! Well done , thank you so much for making this. We will be playing it again later !
very good idea and execution of theme
for me
- the days were too long - i think items showing what their attributes are would make it a lot more understandable for first comers - i was able to mix withouth a base fluid (dont know if this is intentional)
Look at this guy! Love the art and the writing, had a few genuine laughs while reading the prompts. Fantastic jam entry!
I like the game. Great use of the theme and really like the art style.

I would've been so disappointed if this guy didn't show up :D
I didn't quite understand the differences of the potion base or if they are flavour only (I sold some potions without any base holding it), but other than that very solid gameplay!
Needless to say, I enjoyed the funny characters a lot! Great entry, thank you for delivering!
Very nice game! It made it into part three of my little let's play series: https://youtu.be/kfaSQ8xL9tk
Cool game! I quite like the art and the dialog is really neat. Not too important but for me (in the web version), the buttons at the end of the game didn't work. It would have been cool if you could actually spend your money on new ingredients or something besides it being just a score. I also would have liked to bulk-add ingredients for less clicking. But overall I enjoyed the experience and I think the concept is really cool!
Great job!
Got to say these are some lovely drawings! And nice dialogues indeed. :)
Oh man, I love the characters. I don't know what making the potion unstable did, the customers paid for it all the same. I made one poor cyclops spend $10,000 on a potion with a little over a thousand shrews. ha!

I don't know if there's a win condition, I just kinda kept making potions until I got bored. I love the concept! Cool game.
Interesting game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/T1tx-BQwhE0
Funny dialogue and a neat concept! Too me a bit to remember what ingredients did what and I'm not sure if bases do anything but I had fun mixing and reading the character's stories! Good thing the game did not count my ruined potions!
Good work!
Зельеварение на высшем уровне. Не хватает магазинчика для растрат.
Good job!! I would just suggest to add some more ingredients that give bonus or something, and a bit of polish (potions are always water-based when handed over, you can mix ingredients without a base and you see nothing in the potion up until handed over, the tension lowers tooooooo slow so it takes forever to do it fine, the tablets don't seem to do anything in the mixing phase but still are used...)
But overall, funny game and great idea :smile: good job!!
