Excitable and optimistic, this squirrel has big dreams of opening up a new kind of coffee delivery service with her friends!
Wren is the fastest delivery flier in the whole forest! He'll make sure that your hot beverage gets to you fast!
A master of the backroom deal, Ash can always find a bargain on prime ingredients. He'll keep the cafe stocked up, while Maple handles all the sciency-stuff.
A wall street bull who's good with the numbers. He's interested in taking up new investments, and this novel micro-brewer seems like a capital idea! Can Maple convince him to invest in her latest dream?
* Benefits of micro-brewing:
- When you get a recipe, all of your ingredients are already in the pot! Just pop the bubbles requested for their drink order, and a steaming cup is ready in an instant.
- If you really want to spoil your customers, you can pop multiple bubbles of the same type, to make a stunning brew. Just make sure that you pop similar things together, or you might make a mess.
- Followers love to watch the combos. Build your online empire while you brew!
Quick Guide:
- Click & Drag ingredients that match the drink orders.
- You'll get a bonus if you repeat ingredients while dragging!
- 'Surprise Me' orders are an extra and you can give them any order of your choice!
- If you don't match the correct ingredients you'll be penalized, so be careful!
- Try to get as many followers as you can!

Insane production value for a 48h jam, and pretty fun puzzle game on top of it.
I am incredibly impressed, good job!
music + sfx was awesome. art + gameplay very cool : )
Hello! Great Page Design and Art, love the music and atmosphere although when playing the game I wasn't sure what to do but pop bubbles and didn't feel like I was getting somewhere so a tutorial to show what it would look like would help :")
Thanks so much! And yeah, I think I should've been clearer in the tutorial - you have to click and drag across the grid, to pop all the bubbles for an order at the same time.
Here's a full playthrough of the game, if that helps!
