Addicting game!! It reminds me of 2048! where all the bigger vegies roll to either sides of the cauldron (the bigger numbers in 2048 would usually end up on the sides). The mechanics is simple yet addicting! Good Job!

Really like it, it's hard to move the vegies in the corner, maybe the cauldron shape can be improve. But overall it's a good idea and a good gane

Very enjoyable and addictive game!

casey-b 2023-10-02 20:56

That was a very fun game! Good execution all around!

I played until the end and it's a very captivating game. Sounds are also impressive. Congrats

robbzenone 2023-10-02 21:17

Was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I narrowly didn't manage to beat the last level :D

A 2048 game but with physics, a very cool idea! Also, the art is cute

sabasa 2023-10-02 23:59

Very fun game and very cute. I love the story and characters that give purpose to the gameplay. Great job

magalix 2023-10-03 15:24

cute and fun, good execution. I like the overall design !

Cool skin of the Watermelon Game. This fits with the theme well. Overall nice work.

noah-whittington 2023-10-03 16:24

well balanced fun game, enjoyed a lot!

sebi 2023-10-03 17:34

really cool gameplay, a little annoying bounciness makes it not get boring and snappy interaction is great

treenut 2023-10-03 17:34

The artwork is really cute and makes it more fun.

hacknick 2023-10-03 17:35

Cute art!

2023-10-03 17:37

Art looks great!

vanessa-scharff 2023-10-03 17:51

Really enjoied this game!

verttixpertti 2023-10-03 18:00

So addictive! I spent way too long trying to get the cabbage

owca 2023-10-03 20:12

Really fun game and very addicting. I couldn't stop playing :) Nice graphics and audio.

igor-fam 2023-10-03 21:16

Really nice and appealing game! Couldn't stop playing until I completed challenge mode

hinesite 2023-10-04 13:04

Nice! That was fun, and a great take on the theme. I got 432 on easy with the small cauldron. It was a bit frustrating seeing two veggies 1 pixel from each other.

powerofsin 2023-10-04 13:22

Very fun and hard to put down :D

Didn't hear of the mellon game but I can now see the influence. I like the witchy take on it. Couldn't reach the pumpkin yet, but I should probably move on to some other games for now.

The merging sound gets a bit too loud when a lot of merges happen at once. Plays all nice and well otherwise.

Gosh the little veggie's faces are definitely my favorite part!!

crylica 2023-10-05 05:51

Fun game but I feel like the gameplay isn't strong enough - most levels I can get through by just spamming fruits. I like that the veggies grow into different fruits, but its hard to remember which one comes next. Maybe a colour gradient/rainbow could help, like the smallest one is red and it goes all along the colour wheel (orange, yellow, green, etc all the way to purple)? Good job though, it's a really fun game.

p-zzz 2023-10-05 18:43

I really enjoy playing it. Cute veggies!

rinta 2023-10-05 18:52

I respect you for mentioning that it's based on an existing game. Still well done for implementing it from scratch. I have to admit, I did not need any of the spells to complete - I think it would work better if levels were significantly harder so that you actually need to use them, but you get more spells to use (2 pops per level won't make a difference, at this point it's just a flavour).

ladylpcr 2023-10-06 05:15

Cute and addicting !

someoneman 2023-10-06 13:25

I'm literally addicted to this game. Whenever I think of doing anything, I feel this game pulling me towards it, tempting me to play it instead of doing anything else. This game is so fun it's ruining my life. 5/5.

nekusoul 2023-10-06 18:13

Surprising amount of content and detail for a jam entry. Well done.

kanity 2023-10-06 23:36

Gosh, these veggies are too cute! >v< Love the little hats highlighting the choice of an option in main menu :)

The mechanics of veggies falling and colliding with each other are super well done, in my opinion. I really appreciate it when the controls are comfortable to use! Thanks to that, the gameplay is smooth and enjoyable :)

The sounds you used are also very cute.

I didn't play the game you were inspired by, but some of the ideas here are reminiscent of other popular genres, like bejeweled-like mobiles games where you combine few objects to create a new one, and of tetris. That's not a bad thing ofc, I think it's cool to combine all the different elements in one cauldron, so to say, to create something new ^^

Wow, I meant to get a bunch of games rated this morning and instead all I’ve done is play this. It’s so compelling! The mechanics work great and the faces are absolutely adorable. Terrific work.

andikki 2023-10-09 15:27

Finished the game, it was very nice. Impressive that you made such a wholesome game alone in such a limited time. You even have story and characters, which are not strictly necessary, but add a cute touch. Great job!

notinatal 2023-10-09 17:39

The game is very polished and I really like this concept, where you innovated the 2048 a bit there. It definitely fits the theme very well and I enjoyed playing all the levels on my stream so much.

P.S.: There is a small bug where when you collide with two same-type veggies at once, it upgrades by two. But it doesn't happen a lot.

rend 2023-10-09 19:26

Cool take on the Tetris formula. I like how the physics will help trigger some crazy chain reactions, it was fun to see it happening! Nice job!

2023-10-13 07:03

Easy to understand! I am amazed at how polished the game is. So many features.

natano 2023-10-14 00:25

Okay, I spent a long time on this lol. When they showed this theme I was sure that many tetris-style games would emerge, but this game, it takes the whole tetris idea and rebuilds it in a unique way, I loved it. And it's very addictive hahe. I really liked the art, the music and the variety that the game presents, congratulations.

aderpychickenstudios 2023-10-20 19:45

Amazing game it was a lot of fun I played right until the end, very good concept!
