Love the art style, and how the darkness closes in when you start dropping potions. Nice work!

wow man, you really nailed it! nice graphics, very simple game mech, on time submission..

Yeah, it's pretty simple, 'cause I wasn't sure if I could finish something more complex in time. 

Thank you for your feedback :)

This game is pretty cool. I’m still working on my project but there is a huge overlap. Your art looks much cooler though. I’ll ping you my game once I upload it.

Very cute art style! It was fun to try this game out, it reminded me of the sandwich stacker game for lilo and stitch when disney used to have web browser games :)

Thanks!
Glad you liked it :)

cute idea, nicely done :)


i have two suggestions, tho:

  • make it so the shadow doesn't fade the filling bar on top, or you don't know where you're at, at some point
  • some combos are just not doable. if a potion drops on the far right and afterwards one on the far left, ist impossible to reach them

Hi!
Thank you for your feedback. 

The hame is in development state now, i will experimen more with character speed, although with perfect timing (which is really difficul to achieve) it's possible to catch both bottles (at least i managed it a couple of times). 

As for progress bar - it's planned to be redisigned. But idk how should it look yet. 

I hope that in next few days it'll be a better game :)

Just noticed, game works slowly on web. Windows version must work a little better.
