Finally got around to uploading a game I made for the lowrezjam a few weeks ago! Featuring a procedurally generated world and soundtrack, sailing mechanics, lovers an ocean apart, and birbs.

I'm finishing up this cart for the lowrezjam on itch.io, and was hoping to get some feedback in the final few days--what did you like? Was anything confusing or frustrating? Anything it felt like it was missing?

Thanks in advance! -nomes

Mel's Apothecary

Mon, 03 May 2021 17:14:16 UTC

Mel's Apothecary is a small RPG potions shop simulator in the vein of Moonlighter, if you've played that. Forage ingredients, brew and sell potions.

It's still very much a WIP, but I'm proud of what I've got so far and wanted to share! Would definitely take constructive feedback.

TODO: Some things I have planned-

A little town market to spend your hard-earned coins at.
Unlock recipes by purchasing books
Buy extra furniture--shelves and cauldrons
Small bits of dialogue between Mel and her customers
More map areas to explore
SFX/music
Title screen

Edit: forgot to add, the tileset is very much inspired by Cluly's famous PICO RPG Forest Tileset :)
