Very well done on the game mechanics. But could do with a slight increase in the orders time. Most of the time, the order would expire while the iron is still being smelt.

Nicely done. There are a few of these Overcooked types of games, and this one was well done. Pretty simple, yet difficult. I am terrible at this type of game haha. The controls were a bit picky depending on positioning and such, but overall it was fun.

Great sprite for the main character! Definitely inspires the franticness of overcooked. I wasn't able to get even 1 star at the end haha

Solid game loop, I would add little details to the movement like acceleration. It’s maybe a line or 2 of code and brings the game to life pretty easily. Great work!

I liked the gameplay and the art side of the project, but felt that the time for each individual order was a bit short. I never felt I could "get ahead" even for a second, always delivering items (if I managed at all) just in the last second before the order went away! Increasing that timer slightly, with a better "delivery" feedback would have made the game much more fun!

Whoa, this is very very difficult! I totally love the sprites! Four stars for graphics. Sound FX and music were very fitting. Juiciness level is good. Love it how the music speeds up when the timer almost runs out. But man, oh so difficult.

We had the same idea! Your game ended up being simpler than mine but maybe that's its strength. The recipes disappear and appear too fast. I felt like I didn't really have enough time to finish a tool, so these values could be tweaked a bit but I liked everything else!

Took me a while to realise "Overforged" is referencing "Overcooked!" - d'oh! Crazy energetic little forging game, my first attempt I messed up by trying to use Drop to put the ore and wood on Fires and Anvils, once I reread the instructions and realised I needed to use the E key I was sorted. Not quite enough fanfare when you deliver an order maybe? A really great game and congrats on the first time GWJ entry together!

Really fast and difficult, but fun nonetheless.  I do like the simplicity of the sprites and animations.  Some critiques:

  • Not having drop the same button as pickup was confusing at first.
  • The recipes disappear so fast, that it's hard to submit an item.

Great little game, fun, somehow satisfying in spite of being seemingly impossible.  REALLY had a hard time keeping my score above zero at all, but the overall experience was great.  Cute sounds, great art, love the music getting faster at the end.
