I really liked how the gameplay loop goes!
especially when the iron ingots can be overcooked which prevents some cheezing
i managed to fill the floor with iron ingots when switching from forging the sword , go smelt, grind, go smelt and repeat XD
and i see how this can easily be expanded with giving the player more options for soldiers to make, maybe even mixing and matching with the materials and having a complex recipe tree
overall i enjoyed the game it was fun and sweet ❤️
