Not being able to stop and read the potion text made it hard to pick one, so I ended up dying while trying to find the buff that would have helped me not die :sweat_smile: \n\nIt also feels like the enemies scale very quickly. I only pulled one damage up potion in the first four rounds, and it quickly became way too hard to deal with the amount of enemies on the screen, especially with each one still taking more than one hit.\n\nThe pixel art was great though, and the music was very fitting! Felt kind of wild west-y. The shopkeeper sprite was also excellent :laughing: ","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":863753,"author_name":"Mooobster","author_uid":"mooobster","epoch":1664942481,"text":"Reminds me of 20 minutes till dawn, very addicting gameplay.

It's awesome how addicting this game gets- there were a few times where I was close to doom but managed to squeeze out of it just barely thanks to a new potion or two. I do feel like when restarting the early game upgrades increase a little slowly, but if anything that just adds to how crazy things can feel later on.

The potion system is really well implemented, I like that you can save potions for later and that there are stronger potions sometimes. The artwork is nice and tells you exactly what is going on even if you have many enemies on the screen. I also love the trails on projectiles. \n\nThe only thing I have to criticize is the punch. Its hitbox is just the fist, making it incredibly hard to hit enemies that are very close to you and keep dealing you damage. Aiming in general is a bit too unforgiving in my opinion. You could try increasing the size of the punch hitbox to be a line from the player to the fist, I think that would solve all my complaints immediately. Apart from that I really enjoyed playing.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld51\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dodori.itch.io\/potion-panic","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/dodori.itch.io\/potion-panic","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"85114","g_author":"1167016","g_event":"LD51","g_eventkey":"114","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"394026","g_title":"Potion Panic!","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"883","g_commentcount":"12","g_site2_node_id":"303999","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"303999","n_urlkey":"394026","n_parent":"296586","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/51\/potion-panic","n_slug":"potion-panic","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"167016","n_created":"1664596812","n_modified":"1778952252","n_version":"953997","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"_collation":{"body_sanitizer":"TextUtils::SanitizeHTML via existing importer","event":"LD51","removed_author":false},"_superparent":9,"_trust":3,"author":167016,"body":"# Potion Panic!\n( Ludum Dare 51 Entry by @dodori, @thunder and @m4xfield )\n\nPotion Panic! was made in 72 hours for the Ludum Dare 51 Game Jam.\n\nAll the art, sounds and code were made by us in 72 hours.\n\n### ABOUT\nPotion Panic! is an Action-Roguelike type of game\n\nEvery 10 seconds a mysterious potion seller grants you a choice\nof 3 potions to choose from to utilize against hordes of enemies.\n\n### STORY\nYou are a lonely traveller seeking for adventure.\n\nOn your travels you encounter a myserious looking potion-seller that promises to have the strongest potion in the land!\n\nHe agrees to supply you with as much potions as you want, but pits you against\n\na horde of enemies to see if you are worth.\n\nHow far can you make it?\n\n### CONTROLS\n- W, A, S, D for movement.
