Great presentation, I was really impressed you managed to add an intro and (somewhat deadpan) voice acting under the time limit.
However overall I was left confused. I get that the goal is to cure costumers, but the gameplay felt like clicking things in random hoping for the best. Some UI or some form of guidance that will tell me what everything do will be helpful.
I get that the point is to experiment, however even then as a player I need to understand the underline logic behind potion making. Is it based on recipes? Is it based on balancing something? As it is I'm unsure what I'm even supposed to do beside choosing ingredients at random and memorizing what did what.
The game feel unfinished even for a jam. It's unclear for me what to do. There is a boss right out of the gate (with nice music BTW), I tried to fight it and I died it one hit. So I tried to run from it and fell out of the world borders.
It is good to know you will keep working on this game. In my opinion you need a better opening, this one just left me confused.
