YumYumMagic by double jammer

[raw]
made by double jammer for Ludum Dare 46 (JAM)

Yum Yum Magic.gif As a new wizard student you get a strange pet with strange look!

Really ! what is this creature? and what it is eating !

Use your magic potions to find out his dishes with your ingredients that arrive from wizard school each day!

Try to keep him happy or his next meal will be you! Skull.png

This year the Nordic Game Jam got online and we were hyped to attend both Nordic and Ludum Dare jams and the idea of our team was to combine both jam themes together and we did it because, why not? :D So this game created with "Keep it alive" and "Everyday Magic" into consideration.

Very unique and fun. I struggled getting very far, it seems impossible to win sometimes when you have limited potions? Great art, controls, etc. Very well done!

Nice art. Took me some time to understand that the right skill are basically 3 skills for crafting and that items on the plate can be splitted sometimes. Got to day 7. Great game!

Cool idea. Mix a little alchemy, "who's that pokemon", puzzling and you get this masterpiece.

Great concept and beautiful art. I would wish only a little bit slower difficulty progression. Lvl 1-2 is okay, the third one was too tough for me)

This was really fun! At first I had a good time just figuring out what all the combinations did. I think I encountered a bug, though. At one point I got a frog that it wouldn't let me drag, and I duplicated it, and the duplicate appeared with a crown on, and it wouldn't let me take the crown. Despite that, my overall impression of the game is overwhelmingly positive. Great work!

Played this for longer than I probably should have haha! I got to day 35 or something (after a few restarts) XD so it's fair to say I liked it.
Big fan of the art style and the whole concept
Nice job!

Constructive feedback: I found it hard to discover the combinations that lead to what I needed. The unknown area sometimes was hard to figure out. But these are relatively minor things, but felt I needed to give you something for improvement :)

Positive feedback: Nice art and sound effects! Some of the combinations were intuitive (like hitting frog with the fire toasts him lol). Overall a good project, great job and thanks for sharing over HTML. :D

The gameplay in this game is very experimental! I like that player learns from mistakes by trying different combinations. At first it seems too simple, but then addictive (I really couldn't survive too long and started again several times!). I haven't seen such games at this LD. Nice and simple graphics! I would add more varied background music. After all, great job!

This is cool! I love that this game is not just simple cooking simulation where you just mix something you're told to do, and instead you have to guess what to mix by seeing the shadow. Also the art style is simple yet cute. Good job!

Fresh idea as for me. Funny and original art style. Are empty cells can be used somehow for some food combination experiments? Not sure that I liked the music, mute button would be a nice feature :laughing: Many thanks for HTML5 version, the most easy and fast way to play LD game.

Hah, I loved the game. The very alienesque creature and food desires. It took a while to start to understand what everything did, while normally I would say this would be unwelcome I think this was very much part of the design. Experimenting with the different combination. My only really drawback was even though I knew I had the right food it was sometimes difficult to drag and drop it on to the plate which caused a very minor frustration.

@kjscott Thank you very much for playing. It is good to hear that you had fun. about the annoying part, I believe that it might be because of the black silhouette and it might look like the same but it would be different actually.
