Took a bit to figure out some of the mechanics, but once I got it, it was a delight to play. Great artwork & music!
Loved it! I got lost in this one for like a half hour. The music, style and type of game was so different to anything I've played. Once I got a hang of the mechanics it was great, Good work!
AHHHHh this one is really cute. the art is spectacular, i LOVE the main catgirl scene witch character but also the designs of the familiars too! i found the familiar creation system a little confusing at first but i got the hang of it, and i thought it was really interesting that you could use it both for the yelp stuff and returning to the dungeon. i think you should have been able to get more MP once you had more familiars though!
感谢你们制作的游戏！在如此短的时间就做了玩法如此丰富的游戏，迷宫部分加入了需要靠走位来打怪的设计，很好玩！而召唤的部分，也是需要收集对应素材。这大大增加了游戏的复杂度，可以长时间的游玩。音乐也非常好听！以及电话这个道具似乎没在游戏里看到，为什么音乐中要加电话声呢？
This gigantic scope for a jam, good lord! Loved the music and the art style. It's a little rough but that's a positive point if you take into acount the amount of features! Nice entry!!
I love the art and music, and I like the take on the theme! It was a little hard for me to work out the mechanics, though. I also really liked the idea that the familiars could help you with the dungeon crawling as well as with fulfilling orders
The style and the art was amazing. Nice job.
Stylish art and cute music! It did took me a while to figure out the gameplay, but nice job in general
Good game, love the art style and the music
I love the art style and music, it gives to the game a really cool vibe ! The game idea is nice but many things didn't work for me or I couldn't find how they worked. For example I don't know how I'm supposed to follow a recipe with the ingredient changing place (where is the top or the bottom ?). Or how can I submit a creature it never worked for me even after summoning one.
Really cool game and funny overall but maybe the scope was too big, but it's impressive to produce so much in such a short time. Good job !
A really cute, and fun-mood game! The soundtrack is quite cute too and the character designs are lovely, however my feedback/complaint would be the lack of description on things. While I do like trial and error, it can be a bit hard to remember all the different things or what they mean, or some things that look simple might not be to other peoples eyes.

The art and music are fantastic, and I appreciate the unique approach to the theme! However, I found it a bit challenging to grasp the mechanics initially. Nevertheless, I particularly enjoyed the concept of familiars aiding both in dungeon crawling and fulfilling orders. It adds a dynamic element to the gameplay.
Well done, super nice entry! I love the art style
I really like the artstyle and the music here! both are very good! I dig the main character's design a lot as well as the creatures, they are all equally awesome.
I was a little bit confused a t first with how the game works especially with he different gameplay styles and interpreting the recipes but eventually started to pick up on it. It's a really interesting take on the theme that I haven't really seen done this way
Hope this gets enough ratings till the jam ends
Good job!
The presentation (visuals and audio) is great! The core gameplay built on ingredient collection and magical build-up has the potential to provide quite some time of fun.
As the gameplay streches rather far (spanning several mechanics including dungeon crawler and long-time building/management), the gameplay probably needs a bit more tutorial and polish to present all of its fun to the player. The dungeon screen has some bugs: an attack/action is carried out whenever I click a button to change the action type; also, sometimes the keyboard navigation does not work when the buttons are focused. A few selection screens outside also did not work properly (left/right navigation is glitchy).
Despite that, I'm finding the overall presentation cute, the gameplay innovative and fun, quite appreciable as a jam entry — trying to find how the story works is an unexpected extra kind of fun — and it surely has potential to become something more. It also matches the theme, and I like vibe in the brewing scene with the little recipe book. Kudos!
Cute game! Was a bit lost at first without a tutorial, but once I got the hang of it, the gameloop was very satisfying! Love all the little familiar sprites, lots to explore and try out!
