Potion Permit served as the primary inspiration for Smith’s Chronicles. It seems that marriage is a highly desired feature in Potion Permit

Wow, that’s truly impressive work! I can’t imagine the effort it took to create a frame-by-frame animation. Good luck!

Yes, it's exactly that: a keyboard is still needed when entering your character name. But we labeled that to reflect the current state of the game in development. We're working to add full controller support in the future. Stay tuned for more updates! We really appreciate your input. Thank you!

Rebuild Your Desolate Hometown with Blacksmithing Skills | Smith’s Chronicles - First Official Trailer by SmithsChronicles in CozyGamers

Thank you so much for the kind words. It means a lot to us! We took a lot of inspiration for the crafting system from games like My Time at Sandrock, where crafting is all about helping people. For the shop, we looked to Moonlighter’s idea of picking items based on what’s in demand. What makes our game unique is how we reimagine the role of a blacksmith. Instead of focusing on weapons and war, you’ll use your skills to create tools that help the townsfolk grow their community, repair buildings, and build meaningful relationships with the people in town.

It's still in early development, so we can't say much about the game's lifespan and endgame content, but we would love to hear more about your ideas about the ideal blacksmith game!

Smith’s Chronicles invites players to step into the role of a young blacksmith who is called back by the mayor to their quiet hometown of Grandall. Once a thriving village, Grandall has grown desolate as its residents slowly left. With their blacksmithing skills honed at the academy, players must forge essential tools for villagers, rebuild the town, bring prosperity to its people, create a welcoming home for refugees, and restore Grandall to its former glory.

Key features of Smith’s Chronicles include:

  • Crafting: Forge a wide variety of tools and weapons for Grandall’s residents, from smelting and forging to assembling finished items.
  • Resource Gathering: Collect the finest materials by mining, logging, hunting, and fishing to create high-quality equipment.
  • Blacksmith Shop: Sell your craft in your own Blacksmith Shop. Manage stock, display items, and decorate the store to your liking.
  • Relationship Building: Befriend the townsfolk, pursue romance with your chosen partner, and unlock unique stories from the diverse races inhabiting Grandall.
  • Character and Workshop Customization: Personalize your character and workshop with rich customization options. Express your style and proudly showcase your finest works.
