I liked the concept, however it was a little unclear what the endgoal was. Was there a certain amount of potions to finish to succeed? Without a clear goal\/finish line, creating all these potions felt a little meaningless. I thought the cat was super cute and I loved the idea of it interupting your spellwork, it was a little bit hard to understand how it operated though. I really liked how you were given the instructions by hovering the cursor over the different parts.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":851780,"author_name":"PeachTreeOath","author_uid":"peachtreeoath","epoch":1664859456,"text":"\"It\u2019s about the motion of the potion.\" Not bad, not bad...\n\nI jumped right in without reading the description:\n1. First I played around with the different gathering methods\n2. Then the cat started jumping in and I realized I shouldn't do the hardest thing while it's around, which is swipe. Instead I did the clicking one to offset it.\n3. Then I found the cauldron screen, and decided I should just go in there and stir things while the cat is around. Lo and behold, it didn't attack in there.\n\nCame back after I was finished and it turns out you had that as the main tip description lol, so I'm glad I figured out the \"meta\". \n\nArt is super clean. And clearly you have someone on the team that enjoys random wordplay.\n\nAlso is an accurate depiction of a cat. Just goes to town with its face and mucks up all your ingredients. Not to mention the song that plays once it goes nuts. Fun concept.","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":864168,"author_name":"ManchmalScott","author_uid":"manchmalscott","epoch":1664950416,"text":"Love the art style, and always love a game with a cat :)\n\nIt would have been nice to know at the start that the goal was 15 potions, but it didn't take me that long to figure it out (63 seconds)","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":864195,"author_name":"Amythyst","author_uid":"amythyst","epoch":1664950717,"text":"Super cute, loved the art and music, and the mechanic of using the music for timing!

It took me a good while to figure out where to do what and I thought for a long time I was too zoomed in and did not see everything. Especially I had for some reason hard time to realize that you had to move your mouse to stir (that might have been just my smooth brain XD) But once I figured it out it was a cool little game to play.\n\nI liked that you could just listen to the music to figure out when the cat would appear and go away and that made the experience more enjoyable. It was also fun that you had to use different methods to gather different ingrediencies. It would be fun to have some sort of collecting and stirring sounds :) \n\nOverall pretty little potion making game :D \n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":869334,"author_name":"Rebecca J","author_uid":"rebecca-j","epoch":1665005279,"text":"Very cute game!

The cats movements are sooo cute too. I got a little confused at first because you have to do different actions for different ingredients, but the tooltips got me back on track almost immediatley, it would be nice if they fit the aesthetic of the game a little more as they dont really match the rest of the game, but I really appreciated that they were there.
