  This feature could change the game's genre!

  Hey everyone!As the demo release is drawing closer I want talk more about the game's mechanics. Today's focus is the Black Market Arena. A rather unique feature for a shop-sim game since it's basically it's own self-contained autobattler game. I say "self-contained" because it's pretty independent from the shop part of the game. You could just make weapons and try them in the arena if you'd like. Who cares about the realm and their need of swords.Without further ado, let's do a deep dive in the Black Market Arena.What is it?Well, in short, it's the place where you can see your creations in action. You select a fighter, assign them a weapon and then watch them fight another fighter wielding a randomly generated weapon. Side note: the randomly generated weapons are built so that they're actually possible to craft in game!You can participate in the arena once a day at night, after all customers leave. There are 4 rounds, each one getting harder but with better rewards!As you progress through the rounds, your rewards collect in a pool, and you claim them when you leave. If you lose at any point, all of it is gone!How to unlock it?The arena becomes available at level 5 and you can actually try it in the demo!The CombatWe've established that your weapon goes head to head with another weapon but what actually happens in the fight? Let me enlighten you!FightersThe fighters have 3 main stats: Health : (pretty obvious)Block Chance : the chance to block a hit and take only 25% of the damage Dodge Chance : the chance to dodge a hit and take no damage!Each is shown at their poster when you select them. They are all equally important but I guess that really depends on your build.The WeaponsIn the arena weapons stop being just a product you place on display to sell but they become lethal tools with every attribute point and characteristic counting.That's right, all attributes and characteristics actually do something in battle.

  Playtest is LIVE

  Hey weaponsmiths!The playtest is officially open! You can now enter the forge, craft some weapons, haggle with stubborn customers, and run your very own weaponsmithing business.I genuinely can't wait to see what you all think.A quick heads-up though: I'll be letting people in gradually, in multiple rounds over the course of the playtest. So if you don't get access right away, don't worry! You're not forgotten, and you haven't done anything wrong. I'm opening the doors a bit at a time so I can keep a close eye on things, handle bugs, and make sure everything runs smoothly as more people start playing.The playtest will run for roughly a month, so there's plenty of time to get in and play around.This is a huge milestone for me, and your feedback is going to be incredibly valuable in shaping the game. See you in the shop!
