Hey all,

Thank you all for your support and feedback from the game jam; it really does mean a lot to us. I just uploaded a new game build that fixes some pain points you all mentioned.

Outside of minor bug fixes, here are the notable changes:

• Added an input selection menu
• Added a ‘Restart Level’ button
• Added a fullscreen option for the Windows build
• Added Discord Rich Presence for the Windows build
• Added a waiting period between when the player dies and when they’re able to move again to prevent death loops
• Fixed potions sometimes being thrown behind the player

The team is currently discussing whether to continue developing Owlchemist into a full game, but it seems more likely than not. I, for one, will need to finish some things before I can commit to Owlchemist fully since I’m starting my senior year of high school and working on a separate game.

Also, a HUGE shoutout to ajtheapple (Aden Holton) and synth mints (Snowy) for their contributions to the game. It wouldn’t be anywhere near where it is today without them. Seriously, thank you guys for everything. I’m super proud of what we were able to build together.

Feel free to play the new build and let us know what you think in the comments.

Thank you for reading,
