# Unstable Concoction

## Background

There are six elements in the world:

+ the arcane

+ the blight

+ the crystal

+ the diffusal

+ the essence

+ the force

The magical reactions among them create this beautiful world.

... And you, are a bottle of potion,

who wants to become the greatest alchemist of the world!

In order to do so, you shall find the hidden magic circle.

But watch out for every step you make, since the chemical you carry may easily get spilled.

And then, BOOM! The reaction with the ground might kill you.

Also, you may collect elements on the way, and mix it with the chemical inside you to form a new component.

You could use the potion you carry to corrupt the door that gets in your way.

Do keep in mind that some chemicals are inert and would not react with others.

By the way, the reaction with the door could also form a new element and thus changing your chemical.

Use your wisdom to solve the puzzles!

## How to Play

You can click the ground to move the lovely character. If the destination is not reachable, the movement will be forbidden.

You can collect elements in the scenes. If the given element can't react with the concoction in your bottle, nothing will happen, or you will get a new concoction. You can judge the type of elements and concoctions by the colour.

Concoctions in the bottle will be spilt after every movement. The ground blocks may be eroded if they can react. Be careful that you can't move to a null block.

You need to break doors using some specified concoctions, or you can't pass them. When you get the **Magic Circle**, you win this game. Don't worry about trying! If you make a wrong decision, you can press `Z` to undo it. You can also press `R` to restart the whole game. Good luck and thanks for your playing!

I really liked this idea (as frustrating as it was at times. Seriously, level 3 (4?) almost had me yelling until I figured it out). I think it could make a great mobile game, given a zoom function and a little more information on how the different elements/colors react.


Also, you didn't link to your Ludum Dare page (if you have one), so I can't leave you a rating.

I'm really glad to hear your comment, and we will consider your kind suggestion. Sorry that I forgot to leave the Ludum Dare link, here's the page: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/49/unstable-concoction-4
