Really clever idea! I like the time management idea being able to switch back to Squeaker when things are cooking but it feels like cooking is just waayyyyy too slow, like that is what I am waiting for most of the time. I think this would be more fun if instead of pressing the buttons repeatedly to mash/cut the ingredients, they could also have timers with constant sound effects (like a repeated chopping, mashing or bubbling sound) and when the sound effects stop, it means that ingredient using that tool is finished which is info that can be gathered during the Squeaker gameplay despite not having the potion setup on screen, or have a bar for these things for the Squeaker gameplay in to the corner. That way it leans further into the time management idea that you scratch the surface of which I think would be really cool to see. You could also add a timer so people can compare scores. I can definitely see this being expanded upon, love the art and animations, great job!
