Damn only in a week?! Incredible! I think you should a pause menu and add a little more variety.

Definitely getting Overcooked vibes from this game! The mechanics of your mini-games are similar to the ones in my game! :P

I like the music and the low-poly 3D made me think of Ultima Online (even though that is not 3D) and Runescape.

Well done!

Really neat game, crafting the sword. Kinda wish there were more upgrades

Submitted

What a neat game! It was so satisfying going through all of the individual parts of making the swords. I've just watched Adam Savage's making a sword videos on YouTube, so this is right up my alley for game play! It's come together so well. Awesome entry!

you made this in just a week? its so good! ive still got a lot to learn in godot, this is so cool! loved all the mini games, and the tutorial was perfect! nice work :)

Developer

yep! although it was a very very hectic week haha! thank you for the kind words!!

Really inspiring work here!  Nice simple 3D models, and the music and font were perfect for the game.

The movement and effects in the picture-in-picture minigames were smooth and satisfying.  Did you use the Godot animation system for that?

The foundation is solid.  I really enjoyed the Overcooked vibe.  With lots more variety and some multiplayer, I could totally see myself playing this with friends!

Developer(+1)

thank you so much! actually, i did all of the animations using SceneTreeTweens. the character animation was keyframe posed in blender and imported though. I also did the picture-in-picture using viewports! feel free to reach out on discord if you want more info lol!!!

Interesting theme , the music adds feeling of the medieval times.

Neat graphics.

Hope to see the game a bit expanded, like different types of swords, shields, colors and other stuff.

Maybe having knights to actually order items (maybe show how they should look like in the end)

Developer(+1)

thanks for the feedback! yep, working with a friend right now to expand it! a lot of those concepts included! 

Submitted

Sounds good!

This game was really good, after the tutorial I really understood how to play the game so it is very intuitive, and it feels good to complete all of the tasks!

Developer(+1)

thank you! glad the tutorial was worth the time!

Great upgrade game! Impressive use of 3D.

Developer

thank you!

Awesome work, not only is this amazing3D work, but I really feel like you nailed the theme. This is fantastic stuff! The controls feel really good and the pacing is great, I was seamlessly running through each station crafting the sword. My main critique would be to add some more punishment to the player. Random events/ ways to fail the mini games/ change of workshop layout to make it harder to move around. 

Developer

ah adding some kind of failure would be a great addition. thank you so much for the kind words!

Sooooo good!! Loved the character and overcooked type level! Indicators over the next steps required were a great visual cue. The visualization of the blade after each step being seen in the players hands was so great to make it feel like I'd actually changed it!! I particular liked the glowing metal after heating and the particle effects you used :D

My one feedback would be to incorporate some randomness as others have mentioned in the handle attachment and a possible future state of having different metals to melt or types of handles for different orders just to mix it up!!

While I was too slow on my last playthrough having 4 blades/orders unfulfilled, I really enjoyed playing your game!! Great job :D

Developer

thanks for the great feedback! totally agree with the improvements and suggestions. really glad you enjoyed it! 

Submitted(+1)

This was a lot of fun! It reminded me of cooking chaos games - Overcooked or PlateUp! Great work :D

Developer

yes!! that was part of the inspiration! glad you enjoyed it!

Ooh little different mini games! And we make swords for adventures, perfect.

Developer

glad you enjoyed!

Nice game! Good tutorial, very nice feeling when whetting the sword (?), the sound was perfect there! :)

The music became a little repetitive, and it became very quiet when selecting upgrades. 

I think also that it might have been better to reduce the time than increase the number of swords to produce. I felt that after making 10 in total I was done :D

Some randomness when mounting the handle to the blade would have been nice too. They always started from the same state.

Very good interpretation of the theme, and nice execution! Very well done!

Developer(+1)

haha that sound was me rubbing 2 butter knives together in front of my mic! and the hammering sound was me hitting them together!! love all of the feedback here. good point about the repetition of tasks and lack of randomness. appreciate the detail!

Submitted(+1)

I've always wanted to be a blacksmith and you've made my dream come true, haha!

Great take on the Overcooked concept with nice and simple mini-games wrapped up in a cohesive visual style. You definitely got my vote!

Developer(+1)

happy that you got to live out your blacksmith dreams! and i'm glad you could see the overcooked inspiration!

oh man I love it. As a little medieval fan myself and also 3d artist I instantly fell in love with this sweet game. Also the music fits well. Was very enjoyable to play and make some mighty weapons. Additional running smooth, no control issues and also really cool tutorial. Good Job!!!

Developer

thank you! i appreciate the detailed comment. glad you enjoyed it!

I love how similar our games are! A relaxing blacksmitch crafting weapons. You did a great job, especially for a solo designer! Keep it up!

Submitted(+1)

Ahh! A simple, relaxing day as a blacksmith. It's an odd thing to compliment, but good job on the tutorial. Not many of us can get around to it and yours does a great job of laying everything out. Good vibes in dis game.

Developer

tutorials are always a last minute thought! glad you had a nice, relaxing time!
