It's good and entretained me for a while, while i don't like much grinding games, this one is interesting, and the bug is when i find the final boss, i just fall down, no matter if i land in a platform, nice use of health in order to progress faster

Thank you for playing Sapphire and Iron!

I took a look at the final boss area, and it looks like there was a collision issue which has now been fixed and updated.

Happy mini-jam!

Visually this game is really nice. Especially the animations.

The implementation of upgrading gear was a good motivator kept me playing for longer. 

I felt that the time it took to break down materials was too long and became tedious. I think between 3 - 5 hits would of been better. 10 just left me there spamming Q.

I also think the q and e should be swapped around. Maybe its just me but most games use E as one of the main buttons so I found my self accidentally pressing E when I wanted to press Q.

I think there should of been health pick ups too as after my first run I diddnt use the extra damage button.

Thank you so much for trying out Sapphire and Iron!

I really appreciate your comments, a control overhaul and re-balancing the mining are great ideas.

Happy mini-jam!
