Devlog: Milestone #2

Greetings, Level-Up Labs here, with some great news for y’all! We’re glad to present you with a new technical preview for our in-development game: OverBrewed. 

Just as a reminder, this is a simulation game based on OverCooked, where you manage a potion brewing shop with your friends. In this technical preview, you and your friends control 3 magical kitties, with the ability to move and interact with workstations and ingredients inside your brewing shop.

The game presents you with a main menu that allows you to host a game, or join an existing one, as long as you know the IP of the person who is hosting. Each player can choose their name and select their (temporary) role from a list of three alternatives, this determines the color of their character. Once every player confirms they’re ready, the game begins. 

You are presented with a working recipe book, which you can access by pressing E. You can pick up items by pressing space near them, and you can approach plants to generate new items as you need them. 

You can deposit items inside the cauldron, and if you follow the instructions detailed in the recipe book, you should be able to pick up a potion once the cauldron starts emitting smoke (Press Q to deposit an item inside the cauldron, and press Space to pick up the resulting potion)

Customers are generated randomly, and only wait for you to give them a product for a limited amount of time. You can approach a customer with a potion in your hand, and press Q to give it to them. Once that’s done, you will receive points if the potion is the one they wanted. (Scores are a WIP)

If you manage to score 300 points before your timer reaches zero, you win!!!

Download the build that matches your operating system, and have fun trying it!

Until next time, good luck.
