How does your game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme of the contest in the sense that the character just got started on his journey of becoming a blacksmith and making weapons for costumers. Although short, the project has the potential of becoming a full rpg if the storyline would be more complex.

I love the theme, with more polishing it could be a fun one.
I thought it was a weird choice to put part of the main gameplay into a pause menu, I think it would be better served if there was a full-fledged tutorial. The final minigame, the obstacle avoiding one, I think it's too difficult when the block coming at you is very fast and sudden where your block movement speed is very slow.
Thank you for the feedback!
Interesting game. The visuals are Nice, and all the mini games are quite fun. It's just a bit confusing to start without looking at the game page. Overall, good work!
Not bad. but at first I was lost and thought that even after ordering the materials, nothing could be done, only by accidentally poking into everything I was able to pick up the iron.
Also, when you het order, should highlight keywords in some color, so that just by looking at the text you can see "BattleAxe", "hardest metal".
I also came across a bug. When I was trying to figure out how to make a shield, I ended up leaving window choosing type of weapon, and on the next order, the game crashed
Thank you for trying the game and for the honest feedback. I will investigate that bug.
I love crafting games and I love mini games—so this game is the perfect combo! Very well done! I love the art style and love how well everything blends together 👏👏
Thank you very much! I am happy if you enjoyed the game.
Great game! Loved to craft the weapons))
Would be great to have more interactive activities while crafting, but overall I had a great time playing it!
Thank you for the feedback. That would be the idea I started from, but we overscoped for this game jam so we had to simplify and give up some things to finish on time.
