Plot

Ingvild is under siege! Our walls are being taken over by enemy troops. Our soldiers are trying their damn hardest... but our weapons do them no good. As the battle goes on, more and more troops are left with broken weapons. Que, the Blacksmith of Ingvild! You, will save our city. By repairing swords as quickly as possible, you can make sure our army is fighting at the maximum capacity. If enough soldiers re fighting with high-quality weapons, we can push them back to their filth, and we would have successfully defended our city!

Repairing

Tutorial Crafting Chart

A chart of all the crafting recipes

More Detail:

Pick up a damaged sword from the counter with (Z). There are 3 types of damages & 3 types of repairs. 

1: Bent sword - 

This sword first needs to be softened by heating up at the oven. When its done, place it on the anvil, and begin hammering with (X). A 'minigame' pops up. The quality of the repair depends on how well you do. Press (X) when the red line is on the green bar. Great, the sword is like brand new!

2: Shattered blade sword

Leave this sword on the sword mould


Take some iron from the iron barrel


and melt it in the oven. When its done, place it on the sword mould alongside the broken handle and let it cool. You can let it cool in the background. You now have a *dull sword*.  You need to sharpen it at the grindstone

Great, the sword is like brand new! This sword will be at the highest quality level, so has lower chance of breakdown. 

3: Dull sword

Sharpen this sword at the grindstone. That's it, you're done. But you need to stay with it while it grinds. 

The finished sword will have average quality. 

4: Good Sword

Leave this sword at the queue for warriors to pick up so they can return to battle! When they return to battle, we have more offensive power, and with enough power we can maintain defense or even push back the enemies!

I like this game. Very nice.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Sadly the minigame doesnt seem to work for me? Otherwise great game! even though it's a bit hard to get into
At some point the soldiers also stopped picking up new swords

1: Are you sure the minigame does not work? It should be like:

1: heat up blade at oven

2; place blade on anvil

3: Press X to start hammering

4: Press x when the red line is on the green bar

The minigame is very small, and over the players head.


2: The swords you are providing may be *dulled*. It's a little hard to tell, but if you turn up your brightness, dulled swords have some rust on them. Any sword made from the mould are dulled and need to be grinded. 

Ohhhh i didnt read the heating up part :) my bad! works fine now :D
