I really enjoyed this game. It's a shame there aren't more items in the shop and a more advanced system for mixing them in the cauldron.

Fun game but gets a bit repetitive after a while.

Nice game, I really like the mixing system to summon

I enjoyed the concept and would like to see an expanded version. Sometimes the eyeball would roll off screen and I couldn't get it back...

No luck getting past stage 7. It seems a lot of random going on during the battle. Sometimes enemies kill my units first sometimes my units do that despite the HP and units quantity is the same. Combining ingredients is fun!

Here is my playtest:

Nice little game, I found the outcome of combat changed even when I ran the same battle again which made it hard to advance.

Pretty fun, I like the summoning mechanic here where you combine different ingredients to make monsters and have them fight. I think some feedback for when the ingredient actually goes into the cauldron would be good, so that it's very clear. The summoning is interesting but the gameplay feels a little bare, since you're just combining a few different ingredients to make monsters. I wasn't able to get very far either, it felt like I was hitting a wall by stage 4. Definitely interested to see any balance changes or new monsters/summons added.

Good idea, although a little bit repetitive I like the idea behind it, well done

Oo I see potential with this idea! Maybe if it was real-time and you had a recipe list for players to mix and match summons, you could probably work it into a tower defense of some sort! Max I was able to get to was round 7 but I had fun! Good job!
