About the Game

Welcome to Moonlit Alchemy, a cozy potion-brewing adventure set in an enchanting moonlit glade. As the owner of a tiny potion shop nestled among glowing plants and whispering trees, you’ll gather rare ingredients, brew magical concoctions, and serve a delightful cast of customers—each with their own personalities, quirks, and requests. Whether you're chasing fireflies for their luminescent dust or perfecting a moon-touched elixir, the heart of Moonlit Alchemy lies in simple, satisfying gameplay and a warm, whimsical atmosphere.

Features

Potion Brewing:

Experiment with ingredients to craft potions that fizz, glow, and shimmer. Discover new recipes and master the art of moonlit alchemy.

👥 Unique Customers:

Meet a variety of charming (and occasionally eccentric) customers with their own stories, preferences, and potion needs. From the nervous adventurer prepping for their first quest to the owl-eyed scholar seeking a clarity draught, every visitor adds a touch of magic to your day.

🌳 Forest Exploration:

Venture into the moonlit glade to gather ingredients. Time your trips carefully—some rare plants only glow when the moon is high, while others hide beneath misty roots.

🛏️ Shop Management:

Open your shop when you please, set prices, and decide whether to chase profits or prioritize community goodwill. Watch your reputation grow with every satisfied customer.

💡 Dynamic Day/Night Cycle:

The moon is your greatest ally. Track its phases to unlock special potion properties and rare ingredients available only during full moons.

Development Notes

Moonlit Alchemy is a solo development project, focusing on technical art, shaders, and cozy game design. All characters will be animated 2D pixel art within a 3D environment, creating a whimsical atmosphere. The game will feature:

  • Bioluminescent shader for glowing flora that responds to player proximity.
  • Custom lighting system with soft moonbeams and volumetric fog.
  • Interactive potion brewing mechanics using dynamic material changes.

Coming Soon: Pitch Video! I'm currently working on a comprehensive pitch video that will showcase the game's vision and core mechanics. Stay tuned for a deeper look into the magical world of Moonlit Alchemy!

Follow the journey through devlogs, where I’ll share behind-the-scenes insights, technical challenges, and cozy shader experiments.
