Flickor

Brew potions in a race against time, darkness, and demanding customers.

Flickor is an engaging single-player time-management and shopkeeping simulation game. Step into the shoes of a dedicated alchemist, tasked with brewing potions for a diverse clientele ranging from adventurous travellers to ordinary townsfolk. Your success hinges on your ability to accurately memorise recipes and swiftly gather the right ingredients. However, be prepared for unexpected challenges: your unreliable torch frequently extinguishes, plunging your workspace into darkness. Can you rely on your memory and quick reflexes to satisfy your customers and keep your business thriving, or will you find yourself lost in the deep and dark shadows of failure?

The game is amazing my skill at it is the opposite but i love this

It's a very fun game. The only thing I had a problem with was that I couldn't find certain ingredients. I love the art style and the shaders used to create that dirty effect.

Cool game with Overcooked vibes, but finds its own pace. Had a ton of fun!

Not normally a fan of these kinds of games but the implementation was well done and super clever. My only slight complaint is that the voices while incredibly cute and clever got to be a tad repetitive and grating during the tutorial. Fantastic job.

Very cute and charming art-style! The voices also add to the experience and made me chuckle quite a bit.

It took me a second to get the hang of things but once you get a rythm going it's really fun and the randomised recepies make it so I can't just learn them by heart and forget about the book, which is quite nice!

Very fun, like Overcooked but a little more funny. Cute art style and the instructions were pretty clear. The only thing I got stuck on was the order in which to use the cutting board, but I think that was perhaps me being a little ignorant. Really fun overall, great job to the team <3

nice game! I like how the customers complaint to make you go faster

haha thanks so much! You’ve gotta add a level of stress to a cooking game!

Such a dope game! Really appreciate the mobile compatibility!

hahah it was not intentional, but we realised it kinda works ! Cheers ! 

Just like working in a real chemistry lab, including the unreasonable clients!  lol

Very fun, my favorite character was binjamin!

Binjamin! Says hi! 

the clients do be angry!

this game is so cool! love the constant pressure these costumers keep haha
also the low-poly 3D looks amazing

thanks man! 

We used blender for our 3d assets. 

Making them low poly and look good was hard.  definitely a learning experience for us here. :D

I'll explain to my boss, that there was a big line here for that intellect potion. That audibly annoyed sarcasm hahah

bahahhah, im glad you liked that line. 

Business man has places to be!

Amazing game! I would think the lights going out and low customer times would be infuriating, but you implemented them in a way that made them fun and made you apreciate the light. Great ending as well

Thank you.  :) 


Hopefully your store be "lit" now hehehe. 

I can't stop playing! And I still can't get to buying that damn lightbulb!

Okay never mind, I finally beat it! Took me about 12 minutes!

OH GOD THE PRESSURE! These customers are really impatient. It's like working in retail all over again. I could very much use a timer to know just how much time I have left. Great atmosphere though and the game is very polished altogether.

haha, Reminds of the rush when I used to work in Fast food.  life be like that sometimes...

A timer is defiantly something to think about something bit more straight forward than customers voices get angrier along with the changing of text. 

we will see... thanks man :)

I am not very good in these types of games but loved the atmosphere and the sound effects! I was also surprised when the lights went out and had to get ingredients blind, it made things more interesting (and also more stressful xd). Good job!

We tried to make the game slightly stressful. 

Those customers haunt, us in our sleep. hehe

Funny game. Voices cracked me up a bit. Didnt realize you scrambled recipes and item locations after restarting the game. It was no problem tho on my second run.

Glad you enjoyed! We had a lot of fun recording the voices hahahah
