My Life As An Alchemist

About this game



My Life As an Alchemist turns the Survivor genre on its head by removing all the enemies. In this game, your objective is to brew the ultimate potion but to achieve this, you must first enhance your skills through 10 waves of ingredient harvesting and potion crafting. Failure to concoct a successful potion in any wave will result in defeat.



Take on tougher potion recipes as you progress, pushing your skills to the limit as you venture into trickier biomes to gather ingredients. Chug potions to sprint faster, hit harder or find more and rarer ingredients! But watch out for the wild weather changes with each new wave—tornadoes might swipe your hard-earned fruits or rocks, volcanic eruptions could burn you up, and a full moon will turn you into a beast!



Craft your potions and experiment with adding extra or higher-quality ingredients to the base recipes to boost your stats and unlock extra effects. Test your skills in a challenging mini-game that gets tougher as you progress! Prioritize one potion's quality or try to complete them all!



Pick different characters, artifacts and weapons every run for ever-changing gameplay suited to your style! Every character comes with a different base weapon and artifact, but more can be found along your run, granting drastically different effects. Specialize in one type of resource, of weapon, bringing the maximum quantity of ingredient every wave or simply the best quality, it's up to you!



Complete different achievements in order to unlock more artifacts and more characters for even more varied future runs!
