Really nice visuals. The gameplay reminded me a bit of Fable 3's blacksmithing minigame. Very Cool!
holy shit, this one feels really polished! :)
I have to say that I found the gameplay not that intresting but it looks great, it sound great, it feel great ;)
Amazing art style, the music is so great! Too bad there's not much of the mixing genres here. Good job though! Really enjoyed this one
I got to 93! Who else got a higher score?? That was a fun part of my day! This would be cool if you added a left hand mechanic as well (Those left handed functions would allow you to in a way "catch" objects that help obtain items to help you achieve a higher score!). Great job!
The aesthetics are excellent, beautiful presentation, but the game is too easy, maybe you could just add things like more speed, additional keys or maybe combinations (two arrow keys at the same time) so the player has to be more aware to not fail.
But without counting on that, the game is simple but very well polished with an amazing look. Great job! :) .
The presentation is amazing! Simple, yet really well polished!
The gameplay itself, while clean and well implemented, I think it was way too easy, even after the arrows got closer. It would’ve been interesting if you actually had the blacksmith make some weapons to use them as another mechanic, to vary the gameplay a little.
Wow, amazing game, i have played such kind a game with monkeys only when i was a child, thanks for cool flashback!
Im amazed by the visuals, but I don't know about mixing genres... And I got bored really fast
As others have already pointed out, the art is solid, and the polish is apparent. My only issues involve the mix of themes (which really isnt a deal breaker), as well as the lack of real rhythm to this game. Due to the soft song choice I feel as though I’m just timing my key presses off visuals alone rather than to the music. I think some slight tweaks to keep the velocity of the arrows in sync with the music would help in this regard. Overall though really great job!
"Blacksmith Revolution", this name came in my mind after playing at your game, indeed, it reminded me a lot of the rhythm/dance games.
Overall, it is a cool entry, I liked the increasing difficulty, and I managed to do a score of 93!
