🧙‍♀️✨ Magical Coffee-Bar: Fan-Inspired Drink Simulator

Hi Katie,

Thanks so much for your feedback! 🙂

This time, I kept it simple with a straightforward drag-and-drop interaction and focused more on the graphics and content.

To be honest, I was a bit rushed—I was trying to submit it within the one-week window for Challenge #524, since I’m often a little late with the weekly challenges. I was really excited about this one, though, because I used to work as a barista and wanted to go beyond the usual drink recipes. That’s how the idea of a magical coffee bar came to me!

If I continue developing this project, I’d love to add a few features to make it more engaging:

1. Character selection at the beginning of the game—I think it’s a fun way to get users more involved.
2. Magical effects or simple animations on the ingredients to enhance the magical vibe.
3. You’re absolutely right—a timer would work perfectly here! Just like in real coffee shops or fast-food chains, customer satisfaction often depends on how quickly the order is prepared. Even if the drink is made correctly, taking 5 minutes instead of 1 could lead to a disappointed customer—or they might even walk away!
4. A multi-level game structure—for example, starting at Level 1 with simple drinks for a “newbie,” and progressing to Level 5 for an “expert” with more complex beverages. I’d also love to add a badge system, maybe as pins on the barista’s apron.
