"Hi, I am the local alchemist, and I've had a stall in the market, but I'm upgrading to a full shop in town and I need shelves to display all 16 of my potions! I've got my shop sign already and all the potions are ready to go, I just need you to help decorate the shop and display them nicely.
This is how the shop is prepared for you, and I've cast a levitation spell on the potions you see. You can move them around yourself, or just leave them be and build something like a bookshelf like this for me to place them on.
You can change the floor design, the wall color, and make the display as fancy as you'd like. Just make sure I still have my sign and all 16 potions on display.
Thank you! I can't believe I'm going to have my own potion shop!"

(An event was run in December 2024, giving a free PICO-8 license to the best submission to this Side Quest during that month. If you are using the Education Edition and cannot afford to buy PICO-8, look for more giveaway events from us in the future.)
Congratulations @HenryYue for winning the event of this side quest! Tons of work went into creating that amazing shop scene; well done. Check you email for how to redeem your PICO-8 license.
I love how scrolling through all of these feel like browsing potion stalls in an RPG town market. @capnclassic, I really like your unique design, especially the alchemy set where the potion is held over a bunsen burner, very creative! I'll be keeping an eye out for you in our future events so I hope to see more from you.
Hello! I realize that the contest is over but I only found Pico-8 a couple of weeks ago! I'm not super happy with out the cabinet came out so I over compensated on the wall and floor. Any feedback is appreciated!
Looks great! I'm glad to see more submissions after the initial contest. Looking forward to see what you create for the other side quests if you tackle those. Your practice in each one should help you in the next.
