Nice idea, a bit confusing at start however

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! I hope you enjoyed

Submitted

Very addicting gameplay, had to stop myself)

Developer

Thank you for the comment! You don't have to stop if you don't want to.

Cool game, I ended up getting like 130 points. Sometimes the merge wasn't working, not sure whether that's a bug or there's something I didn't know. The physics were well done and it was cool how some objects were harder to keep on the anvil than others. Nice work

Developer

Thank you for playing!!! There are some problems when objects of the same type enter and exit the anvil, that's why the merge didn't work. 

Submitted

Loved this. Could see this being a fun mobile game/cookie clicker type thing

Developer(+1)

Yup, it could become into some kind of mobile idle of clicker. Thanks for the comment!

Great Job! It was cool puzzle!!! 

Would be grateful if you also rated our game)

Developer

Thank you for the comment! I will check your game soon.

Submitted

The mechanics of the game are cool!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Very impressing game! tho it would have been cool to have a more begginer friendly UI at the start menu as i didn't notice the "how to?" button until i clicked accidently... and before that i thought that the gifts picture was things you needed to combine... overall very great game you really added the anvil in a unique way! and gave off a cozy christmas vibe!!

Developer

Thank you for the comment!!

Submitted

nice game, simple yet fun!

Developer

Thank you for playing! :)

Submitted

Great submission, I wasn't sure what to do after you made the 3 gifts and threw them to the side, nothing updated when I threw the last one. So I tried making them again but it didn't let me :(

All in all, a fun little game. Well done!

Developer

You are supposed to make the gifts to get as many points as you can before the time runs out. Thank you for playing, I hope you enjoyed!

Submitted

score: 138! I love when physics are used in games whenever possible. Balancing the blocks is fun as well as throwing the presents to redeem points. This also happens to work well on touch screen!

Developer

Thank you for playing! I haven't tried to play on touch screen, but with some modifications (the forge button) it could be played without any problem.

Submitted

Clicking with two fingers allowed me to forge on touch screen. It’s a fun mobile game!

Developer(+1)

I didn't expect the game to work perfectly as a mobile game, thank you for telling it!

Submitted

you should make it into a bigger game and put it into the playstore ThunderDev

Developer

Haha, maybe. I would like to make more stations and polish some aspects. Good idea!

Submitted

Concept is cool.

I think the game is missing something and you should add it! it was very interesting, and fun :3

Rate and comment on my game, I need some help in tweaking it!

Developer

Thank you for the comment! I will play your game soon.

Submitted

It's a pretty cool concept. The only part I didn't like is how the objects already on the anvil kept on falling off if I dragged another object and tried to place it on the anvil. 

Developer

Thanks for the comment! Personally, I like the challenge of balancing the toy parts on the anvil but I understand that not everyone enjoys it.

Submitted

An pretty original take on anvil crafting, with a fun physics system. That being said, the game feels like it's missing something, as simply building towards a high score doesn't feel very satisfying as of now. perhaps something like a more targeted demand of toys (e.g. one specific toy at a time) could help.

Nonetheless, well done!

Developer

Thanks for your comment! I'll take it into account.

The game is so fun and the most thing that I liked is the sound effects

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Super fun , super cool implementation of the anvil.

Developer

I'm glad you liked it! 

Submitted

Cute game, I really found the merge sound satisfying haha

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

pretty fun game, would be nice to have an song that lasts more than 90 sec but otherwise great work. The game makes me feel like an underpaid elf at the north pole

Developer

You're right, I had to cut the music because of some parts that didn't fit in the game. I hope you enjoyed.

Submitted

I did, congrats on your work!

Submitted

The game mechanic is great and fun and it fits the theme and special object correctly. The audio seemed a bit off but the game overall is really good. Great job!
