Medieval Blacksmith news & patch notes

Greetings blacksmiths,

In this hotfix, we addressed a critical bug related to the woodcutting system that was causing major issues in the game. This bug reset all ores collected by workers and led to the game becoming stuck. To fix this, we have now prevented woodcutting below a certain minimum threshold, ensuring that this problem no longer occurs. We would like to thank the players who reported this issue to us. Note: Players who have encountered the inventory reset issue can manually fix it by cutting their wood stacks into two. This will trigger an internal inventory update and stabilize the system. May your blades be ever sharp! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

With this hotfix, we are now setting the customer class-based sales system — which we introduced in version 1.6.0 — to be disabled by default. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/5547e0030db3b3f7ee343f808fb30cf31b2dc65e.png Our initial goal with this feature was to reward blacksmiths who produce different types of weapons and to provide an incentive for doing so. However, we realized that especially in the early stages of the game, this system proved to be quite challenging. Many of our new — and even some veteran — players expressed dissatisfaction with it. That’s why we are making this feature optional with this update. With this adjustment, customer purchases will now be determined solely by the sale chance. We sincerely thank all the players who gave us feedback and alerted us to this issue. That said, players who do enjoy this more demanding sales system and prefer a game experience that emphasizes management alongside simulation can still enable the feature. Just go to the Settings menu and activate the Picky Customers setting! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/4c00e814770d1da1d2d9f97d2668caa014fbc333.png Alongside this change, we’ve made a few other small tweaks in the game, which you can find below. Thanks again to everyone who reported these issues! • The “Stop Hammering” label on the assembly desk has been replaced with a more descriptive message. • Cursor color changed from green to yellow. • General scene lighting has been improved. • The cutting area for the large chisel on the lathe has been improved. • Some localization updates for German, Spanish, and Japanese languages. (Thank you to everyone who reported translation issues!) • Fixed some lighting issues in the blacksmith shop. May your hammer stay strong! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings, Blacksmiths!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/bb4e27465ec4e50a5cba34dbb5e63e901267b427.png We’re excited to announce that Medieval Blacksmith has officially left Early Access and is now in full release! It’s been almost a year since we launched the very first version of the game. During this time, we’ve met many talented blacksmiths. With your ideas burning bright like a forge, your feedback blowing like bellows, your bug reports sharpening the experience like grindstones, and your powerful critiques striking like hammers — you’ve all contributed to crafting this game step by step. We’re deeply grateful for the inspiration, support, and feedback you’ve given us along the way! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/648b25d0b5936faca9dadad10ba1685c1747f0d4.png To be honest, our initial plan was to create a shorter experience — maybe 7–8 hours. But thanks to your feedback, the world of the game gradually expanded, the systems became deeper, and eventually, Medieval Blacksmith became something that makes us truly happy — and honestly, it still surprises us how far it's come. We know that without the support, guidance, and inspiration from our players on both our Discord channel and Steam, we wouldn’t have been able to complete this journey. We sincerely thank you once again for all the support you've given us. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/36eef2342a86c419f6ad34dea44f787d5649c094.png

Development Continues (At a Slower Pace)

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/db844964290420e26b1c98732a31b28bbbb43b79.png While this is our full release, we don’t see it as the end. Medieval Blacksmith will continue to evolve — just at a slower, more balanced pace. We’re still open to feedback and we’ll continue listening closely. If you have ideas, feature suggestions, or run into any issues, feel free to reach out. We built this game together — and we can keep shaping it, together.

And Finally…

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/28ee6f777136377fcbf4e5a9a4557c4f79786c10.gif To everyone who’s been a part of this journey — thank you once again. Medieval Blacksmith isn’t just a game to us; it’s a living experience, shaped by its community. The iron is still hot — and we’re not done hammering. Until the next hammer falls, The Medieval Blacksmith Dev Team {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

We’re thrilled to announce that we’re finally wrapping up the stabilization of the latest update for Medieval Blacksmith that’s been live on the Test Branch. This means we’re just around the corner from pushing this version to the main branch—and with it, Medieval Blacksmith will officially complete its Early Access journey! Before we move forward, there’s something very important we want to highlight to make sure your progress stays safe. If you're playing a version older than 1.6.0, your save files will be deleted when the full version goes live on April 14, 2025. To avoid losing your progress, please switch to the branch named "old_version". {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/2ecfb33a4fe4cf426fa2dfab4e1b3908874baaff.png "To access the old version branch, right-click on Medieval Blacksmith in your Steam library and select Properties. In the window that opens, go to the Betas tab and select the appropriate beta branch to enable the old version." If you're already on version 1.6.0, you’re all good!👍 Just stay on the Test Branch until the update officially launches on April 14th, and then you’ll be able to transition smoothly to the main branch without any issues. Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Your feedback, patience, and support have been invaluable in shaping the game into what it is today. The forge is almost ready! 🔨🔥 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

As we near the end of the early access period, we are finalizing the last adjustments. In this hotfix, just like in the previous update, we have addressed some in-game issues along with a few minor economic adjustments. • Some essential conditions for certain customers have been removed to create a more balanced trading system. • A calculation issue affecting the weapon impact of the guard bar has been fixed. • The arrow icon that extended beyond the panel in the save/load menu has been corrected. • The issue where antimages requested gold-containing weapons like Loha in special orders has been resolved. • Various totems have been placed in the Temple and Hill of the Ancestors. We appreciate our players for reporting these issues and wish you a great gaming experience! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/1d7e2cde5facc801406c6d5cd86e818760858648.png In this hotfix, we have made some small economic balance adjustments along with fixing a few important issues in the game. Here are the changes: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/9d5d937e1596bd14e9d5fb6a7cc914e23d4282da.png • The minimum and maximum budget ranges for customer classes have been adjusted. • The weapon requirements for the Beast Hunter and Nomad customer classes have been reduced. • Fixed an issue where non-quenched weapons could reach God Craft grade. • Resolved a dialogue freeze issue in Zaroth Mak'tar. • Corrected some spelling errors in dialogues with Shaka and Orkhan. • Fixed a transparency issue with some plants in Nurenor Pass. A huge thanks to all our players who support us with their feedback on Steam and our Discord channel. Happy forging! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/44c3915eebc237cb309db14d46b0b48a2a7a7bf7.png Our work on adjusting the Beta Test Branch continues. This hotfix primarily eases the economic difficulty slightly while also addressing various bug fixes. A huge thank you to all our players who support us with their valuable feedback!

Economic System Adjustments

The first change we made to the economy system was adjusting the Low Interest Penalty values for customers. While this value didn’t cause much difficulty in the mid-to-late game, it made early sales significantly harder. To address this, we reduced the Low Interest Penalty to ensure blacksmiths have a smoother start in the game.

Ore Spawn Rate Adjustments

We have also rebalanced the spawn rates of ores in the mines. Now, at least one of each ore type is guaranteed to spawn. The spawn chance of alloy ores has been reduced, while the spawn rates of basic ores have been increased. This change aims to promote efficient mining while also encouraging blacksmiths to create alloys in their shops. Ore Amount Iron 10-30 Copper 7-21 Tamra 1-3 Rai 1-3 Silver 5-15 Yudhira 1-3 Gaurilla 1-3 Suvarna 1-3 Serath 1-3 Cila 5-15 Khanka 4-12 Loha 1-3 Moraka 1-3 Gold 1-3

Bug Fixes

A big thank you to all players who report bugs and issues via Steam and Discord channel! Below, you can find other fixes included in this update: • Fixed an issue where the amount of ore in a bucket could drop to negative values. • Fixed an issue where customers appeared with different outfits the next day after making a deal. • Adjusted the prices of Blood Rings. • Weapon Inspect Menu now displays quality values with two decimal places. • Fixed an issue where players would fall into the void after being evicted from the Guest House. • The fire sound near the large gate in Nurenor Pass has been removed. • Fixed issues related to weapons receiving God Craft grade. • Fixed functional bugs where some values in the Blade Bar and weapon prices were incorrectly displayed as negative. • Fixed a bug affecting weapon quality calculations. Thank you all for your continued support and feedback! Your contributions help us make the game better every day. See you in the forge! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings, Blacksmiths...

We've updated the game engine to improve compatibility with new devices. To make sure older devices are not affected, this version will be available on the test branch for now. New players can start directly with this version! Plenty of new features, updates, and bug fixes are waiting for you! If you've played before, please note that old save files won't work and will be deleted automatically. We recommend backing up your save files before switching. This way, you can go back to the previous version if needed. Your save files are located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval Blacksmith\Medieval Blacksmith_Data\Resources\SaveFiles We have temporarily made both the old and new versions available to our players simultaneously in order to prevent potential issues that may arise. This way, if anyone runs into technical issues with the new version, you can still enjoy the game on the old version while we work on fixing things. We also want to give some extra time to those who are already deep into the game or close to finishing it. Once we're confident that the new version is running smoothly on all devices, we'll move it to the main branch for everyone to enjoy. Thanks for your patience and support!

SUPPLY AND DEMAND!

The Rules of Trade Are Changing!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/08f90e1d7f2820640493bb7887b2d3c1f18ee8de.png The art of commerce in your blacksmith shop is evolving! Every customer now has a unique profession, purchasing power, preferred weapon type, and even weapon traits they simply can’t use. With this new trading system, you'll encounter eight distinct customer classes—each with their own expertise, needs, and budget. Their profession shapes their weapon preferences: • Rogues favor swift daggers. • Soldiers demand durable swords. • Peasants prefer cheap, lightweight weapons they can carry with ease... Of course, a customer’s weapon preference isn't an unbreakable rule. A rare, masterfully crafted blade can tempt even the most stubborn buyer. But if you’re trying to sell them something outside their usual interests, you'd better give them a good reason—perhaps a little discount might do the trick...

Know Your Customers, Master the Market!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/b24e45e0f3705f1ed20ce022fec2eb2512f573d3.png Every weapon must meet certain minimum requirements based on the profession of its wielder. • A soldier marching into battle won’t trust a fragile sword that might break mid-fight. • A mage can’t channel their magic through weapons that aren’t made of pure gold. • Anti-mages, sworn to fight rogue mages, will refuse any weapon that contains gold. With all these factors in play, the economy in Medieval Blacksmith is taking on a whole new life! To make quick and steady profits, you’ll need to understand your customers and carefully stock your shelves with weapons tailored to their buying power and preferences. This new trade system puts the sales strategy entirely in your hands! 💰 Will you mass-produce affordable weapons to attract a broad range of buyers? 🗡️ Or will you craft rare, high-end weapons for a select few, selling less but making hefty profits? It’s all about supply and demand, and the choice is yours. And if a customer isn’t satisfied with what’s on your shelves, don’t worry—you can negotiate and take custom orders to meet their needs. Just don’t forget to haggle—after all, a good blacksmith is also a sharp merchant!

Additional Trade Balancing Updates!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/14d23ca941501946e629ffaee610cc100aeef582.png Thanks to your amazing feedback, we’ve made several adjustments to further balance the trade system. We've fine-tuned the prices of certain tools, ores, and items while also addressing a few mechanics that made earning money too easy. We've also reworked the weapon pricing system to emphasize skill and craftsmanship over raw material costs. Now, factors like cut rate and pierce rate directly impact a weapon’s value. This means that workmanship is now more important than just expensive materials when determining a weapon's price. To prevent overpriced, game-breaking profits (like 30,000–40,000 coins), we've stabilized the economy. Our goal was to balance profits to around 1,000 coins per weapon, which we believe is fair when compared to rent, special customer income, and material costs. But of course, we’d love to hear your thoughts! To prevent repetitive money-making strategies, we've also changed how Nurenor Pass mines work. Ore locations are no longer fixed—every time you enter the mining area, the ore spawns will shift. High-value ores are now rarer, making the mining economy more dynamic and challenging. These changes aim to break the boring, overpowered strategy of simply mining gold and forging heavy golden weapons for easy cash. However, we haven’t altered the income from special customers, as it's crucial for keeping the story progression smooth. Balancing updates will now be more frequent, and we’ll keep refining the system based on your feedback! Stay tuned!

Weapon System Overhaul!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/58e8bd2faeff60bb3d1f096631be258dc410286c.png This update brings tons of new weapon parts, including pommel, guard, handle, and blade parts. Plus, thanks to a new blade thickness adjustment feature, you can now craft rapiers, greatswords, and more! • Blade parts and heavy weapons have been rebalanced, affecting cut rate, pierce rate, and material influence. • Point of Balance now impacts weapon speed, making weapons with a center of mass closer to the hilt easier to handle. • You can now thin wooden handles at the assembly desk to craft sleek grips like katana handles (tsuka), enhancing your weapon’s aesthetics.

Introducing the Ultimate Challenge: GOD CRAFT!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/648b25d0b5936faca9dadad10ba1685c1747f0d4.png A new, extremely difficult weapon grade has arrived—one that only the most masterful blacksmiths can achieve: God Craft! This divine-tier weapon grade is even harder to craft than Legendary, requiring absolute perfection. To reach this level, every single quality stat of the weapon must be at 100%, because a weapon worthy of the gods demands flawless craftsmanship! 🔥 Important Note: Since achieving a true 100% is technically impossible, weapon stats of 99.5% and above will be rounded up to 100%. Only the most patient and perfectionist blacksmiths will be able to forge these celestial weapons. Are you up for the challenge?

This update took a bit longer, but combining all of these amazing ideas from you into one package was necessary to complete the early access phase. We hope it was worth the wait! Moving forward, we plan to deliver updates and balancing adjustments more swiftly and get the game ready for its full release. We also plan to address some fantastic feedback that we couldn't include in this update in the next ones. Thank you again for your endless support. Don’t forget to share any feedback or suggestions you have with us on Steam and Discord! May your forge stay hot, and your hammer steady! 🔥🛠 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

I'm excited to share details about the upcoming update that we plan to release in the coming days! First and foremost, we want to sincerely thank all our players who have shared their positive and negative feedback throughout this process. We have carefully noted all your suggestions and criticisms, and we've made a great effort to incorporate much of this valuable feedback into the update. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/f1a5ba1a70c82d0d4ab7ab0235e194f37f69e786.png One of the key issues with previous updates was that changes to the game’s save file structure made older saves incompatible. To address this, we took extra time to finalize adjustments that might impact the save system. These changes primarily involve weapon design, new weapon parts, new tools, new items, and new customer types—all of which affect the save file structure. We are now at the final stage of this work, and once testing is complete, we will be sharing the update with you. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/db844964290420e26b1c98732a31b28bbbb43b79.png Another major change involves updating the game engine version. While this won't significantly affect gameplay, we made this change after receiving reports that some high-performance systems were experiencing issues. To ensure the new version runs smoothly on all devices, we will first release it as a short-term, open beta test branch. For players who wish to continue using their existing save files, you’ll still have some time before the update takes effect. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/a6f0a7114700f6aec6e878d90b975eb398da4afb.png We’re now at the final stretch of development for this update, and we’re completing the testing phase to ensure you have the best possible experience. We’re just as excited as you are to share it with you once testing is done! Thank you! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/ccb1e889c24efba627f922361a45be7738d377e5.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings, Blacksmiths!

In this hotfix, we've addressed some issues within the game and made improvements to its difficulty. Skill Tree Adjustments As you know, we introduced the skill tree in the 1.5.0 update. However, based on the feedback we've received from our players, we've decided to make some critical skills much more accessible. Specifically, the reputation required to unlock the Auto Hammering and Molten Heart (Boiling Icon) skills has been reduced from 200 to 75. This means you'll be able to unlock these skills quickly by completing the first quest and crafting a couple of weapons. Mining To provide a faster mining experience, we've reverted the base pickaxe swing speed to match the pre-1.5.0 versions. With the new skill tree abilities, you can now increase this speed even beyond what it was in earlier versions. Customers We’ve also fixed an issue with customer visit frequencies. In versions prior to 1.5.0, customers visited the shop every 60 to 120 seconds, but in the current version, this was mistakenly adjusted to 100 to 200 seconds. With skills, you can now reduce this interval to 50 to 100 seconds for a smoother gameplay experience.

Improvements / Balance Changes

• Default pickaxe swing speed has been increased. • Fixed an issue with customer visit frequency. We've also adjusted the number of ores slaves can mine per day at level 100: • Iron: 22 • Copper: 15 • Cila Khanka: 12 • Silver: 7 • Gold: 4 • Additionally, mining silver and gold rocks has been made 15% easier for players. (This will improve significantly with skills!) • A button has been added to the Weapon Preview Window to hide the UI for a clearer view.

Bug Fixes

• Resolved UI scaling issues on widescreen displays. • Fixed a bug in the Save Window where the gameplay time counter would break after exceeding 24 hours.

Thank You!

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all players who have shared their valuable feedback and thoughts about Medieval Blacksmith. If you’d like to share your own feedback, feel free to reach out to us through our official Discord channel or via Steam!

Greetings, Blacksmiths!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/ca09a9813ed129e40e81e206c515e9ec286aef9b.jpg Today, we have two exciting announcements for you. First, we're thrilled to share that the demo for Medieval Blacksmith will be available soon! This demo will let you explore the core features of the game and step into the world of the blacksmith. Mark your calendars—on January 1, 2025, the demo will be live!

Update 1.5.0

Along with this exciting news, we’re also bringing you the details of our latest update! We’d like to take a moment to thank all our players for their invaluable feedback and bug reports. Your support means the world to us!

New Features

Skill Tree: One of the most requested features by our players was a skill tree and a way we could utilize the professional reputation you’ve earned. So we’ve combined these elements and introduced a brand-new skill tree system! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/8ec75babb41a893966d88372aeed99183362d22f.png Now, the reputation you earn through crafting weapons, completing quests, and interacting in dialogues can be used to enhance your abilities. With this skill tree, attributes like hammering and sharpening speed can be improved significantly compared to previous versions. Some features that were previously default have also been moved to the skill tree—not to nerf them, but to provide a more satisfying sense of progression. However, if you find this situation boring, please let us know. New Starting Tutorial: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/d2d3e48bedeb2336fd5d45270d90970830cec504.png We’ve added a small quest to guide you through crafting your first weapon after opening your blacksmith shop. This serves as a mini-tutorial to help new players get started.

Improvements / Balance Changes

• Adjusted the hardness of rocks: Valuable ores are now harder to mine, while less valuable ores are easier. • Slave mining speeds have been balanced. Valuable ores now take longer to mine, while less valuable ones are faster. • Slaves can now mine alloys with the following drop rates: Mining Level Drop Chance 0-20 1-5% 21-40 5-10% 41-60 10-15% 61-80 15-20% 81-99 20-25% 100 25% • Slave crafting speeds now scale based on the material used. (For example, crafting a copper weapon is faster than crafting a steel one.) • The previous system where slaves consumed 4 ores per weapon has been removed. They now consume ores based on the weapon's size. • Maximum ore capacity can now reach 50 with the appropriate skill unlocked. (Only 5 ores will appear in the scene at a time, but new ones spawn as they're used.) • Added a button in the Weapon Inspect Window to toggle the effects of enchanted weapons. • Added an indicator in the Weapon Inspect Window to show if a weapon has been quenched with a magical effect. • Added zoom in/out options to the Weapon Inspect Window. • Ores inside the bucket can now be inspected when the bucket is placed in the forge. • The character’s height has been reduced by 5 cm. • The maximum weapon name length has been increased. • Lower-priced weapons now yield more reputation. sale probability Reputation 91-100% +4 Reputation 61-90% +3 Reputation 31-60% +2 Reputation <16% +1 Reputation Note: These bonuses are only valid for Uncommon and above grades. • Held items now sway slightly when walking or running. Bug Fixes • Fixed a naming error related to the red coin. • Corrected the icon for weapon sale notifications. • Resolved an issue where spectator sounds in the arena weren’t affected by sound options. • Fixed an issue when speaking with NPCs like Saguna and Ranophel. • A bug that occurred during conversations on the way back from the mines has been fixed. • Fixed a bug where selecting "Heavy Weapon Part" on the weapon design table replaced the guard part automatically. • Corrected a condition issue related to Zhendar. • Grammatical errors in some dialogues have been corrected. Thank you! We deeply appreciate everyone who has supported us so far. If you’d like to share your thoughts or feedback about Medieval Blacksmith, feel free to reach out via our official Discord channel or directly on Steam. We can’t wait to hear from you! Keep your hammers strong, blacksmiths! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/1d7e2cde5facc801406c6d5cd86e818760858648.png We have released this hotfix to address two critical bugs related to the game. We sincerely thank our players for reporting these issues to us. • Fixed a dialogue issue with the tribe chief. • Resolved the issue of warriors' items disappearing after death in battles. Thank you for your support and feedback! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

In this update, we have added language support for some languages to Medieval Blacksmith and included some of the wonderful feedback we've received from you. We would like to sincerely thank all of our players who provided these valuable feedback and reported bugs in our game. In the coming days, we will be working to incorporate other great ideas that we couldn’t include in this update. Our work on translation and localization will continue at the same pace. Here are some of the changes you can find in this update: • Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, and Turkish language support has been added. • The text in the Blade part has been removed and replaced with dynamic text. • The exit button in the arena has been fixed. • The scaling issue in the character screen has been resolved. • The selected fuller type now affects the weapon's weight. • The issue with the guard changing when loading saved heavy weapons (axe, mace, hammer) has been fixed. • The positions of weapons on the shelves have been corrected. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/bac5b259cb51889ad368f3424ec2b4c73208fd68.png • Tools can now be switched using the mouse wheel. • The training dummy now shows cut, pierce, and smash damage. • The issue where fighters who lost in battles were not removed from the inventory has been fixed. • The production times for the weapons made by slaves are now proportional to the difficulty of processing the ore they use. We would like to thank all of our players again for their ongoing support and feedback. Your input is invaluable to us, and we’re excited to keep improving the game with your help! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings, Blacksmiths!

In this epic journey where a blacksmith straddles an uncertain past and an unknown future, your hammer will be more than a tool—it will shape the fate of a kingdom. As you craft each weapon, you won’t just forge steel; you’ll carve out destiny itself. The story of the game is now complete, bringing a journey with multiple endings that allow you to shape the destiny of the kingdom. Every choice you make along the way will ripple through the story, steering it toward unique outcomes based on your actions.

LATIA ROYAL ARENA NOW OPEN!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/93452820d1fd643a81d9b72ed1c779b9e3d77ee1.gif Enter the Royal Arena of Latia, where the strongest warriors battle to the death, and feel the advantage of being a blacksmith. Whether you use your weapon expertise to place clever bets and win riches or equip your slaves with the finest gear to dominate grand tournaments, the arena offers endless opportunities for glory. Remember, though, that anything that falls upon the arena sands becomes the arena’s property. As their master, keeping your slaves alive is in your hands. Train them, arm them with the best weapons and armor, and prepare them for the brutal challenges ahead. Fail to do so, and you’ll face the bitterness of defeat by losing them to the sands.

FATES DETERMINED BY COLD STEEL

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/c05ee8910236c35ed4c48f699292b0785c2492e5.gif Your fighters’ survival depends not only on their skills but on their gear, fighting styles, and how they work as a team. Will they dodge incoming attacks or block them head-on? Equip a mighty axe for devastating power but at a slower pace, or choose a lighter blade for speed at the risk of breakage in battle. Heavily armored fighters can withstand more damage but may struggle to counterattack. This complex battle system blends strategy and brute force, where each hammer strike you land will decide whether your fighters stand on the razor-thin edge between life and death. We’ll soon be sharing more details on combat mechanics, damage systems, slave production and growth rates, weapon quality and pricing, the influence of special customers on the storyline, rewards, and more.

Feel free to share ideas and suggestions on our official Discord or Steam page. Thank you! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings blacksmiths,

I am excited to share some news about our upcoming update! We have been working diligently on this update for a while now. As I mentioned on our Discord channel, we were aiming for a release by the end of this month. However, in order to give you the best possible experience, I would like to ask for a little more time to finalize things. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/f660b78737d33f2f6772e1380654f4a652ae2a92.png The main focus of this update is to complete the game’s story. We are preparing three main chapters that explore the fantastic story of the Blacksmith. These chapters will introduce new characters, town intrigues, and choices that will reshape the story with each decision. You will find that your in-game choices will lead to multiple endings, making each game unique and exciting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/0f9a170d85bd3e64bde4b9d0666a40e18181b6e6.png We are also introducing a mini gladiator game where you will equip your warriors with armor and jewelry, but the weapons they use will be completely your own creation. You will be able to purchase armor and accessories from the store, but the weapons themselves will be completely up to you to craft. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/5cd74ba8d8f5e95f3fa7d66e43a995943389798d.png The good news is that most of the work on this update is now complete. We are currently making final adjustments and conducting quality checks. We are also doing our best to incorporate as much of your valuable feedback as possible. Thank you for your patience and continued support! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/2e55f7106801129d5de7a320ce798e293af18736.png Greetings Blacksmiths, In this hotfix, we have made a few quick adjustments to address the screen blurring issue that some of our players have encountered.

Bug Fixes

Graphics Screen blur issue resolved. Weapon Design Desk Fixed some incorrect text in the weapon design table UI. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the players who reported this issue and provided images and videos, helping us to understand and resolve it more quickly. Your support and assistance are greatly appreciated. We are continuing to work on the other feedback we have received from you. Thank you! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/20768ea3aab53d3da94a1579b1cd69c6eae8daa8.png

Greetings, Blacksmiths!

We are thrilled to introduce the new features we've added to expand the boundaries of our blacksmithing craft and to create a wider variety of weapons. Among the most requested features has been the ability to craft curved swords, as well as axes, maces, and other weapons. With the latest update to Medieval Blacksmith, this is now possible!

Real Swords Have Curves

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/e5e98cfa4ad544ead9240ccad084172e1573eae2.png With this new update, you can now design and create curved weapons, from daggers to spears, using the weapon design table. Adjust the nodes in the curvature window to freely determine the shape, size, and depth of your weapon's curve. Create and forge katanas, falx, sica, scimitars, yatagans, shamshirs, shotels, and many more! However, remember that while a curve increases sharpness, it decreases piercing ability.

It's Time to Break Some Bones!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/b89bdb8d7bd62ed40f09015f1e6565ac59112c95.png We've added a new class of "Heavy Weapons" to the game. This category includes not only maces and hammers but also axes, halberds, war picks, and war sickles. In this update, we've included 9 maces, 6 axes, 3 halberds, 2 hammers, and 1 war pick in the heavy weapon category, with plans to add more in the future. If there are any special weapons from different cultures you'd like to see in the game, please let us know through Steam or our Discord channel.

No, We're Not a "Family" in This Company

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/ba0e3df0fae54678274ce20aac7c05d9324e16dd.png With the new worker employment system in Medieval Blacksmith, you no longer have to craft weapons alone. You can now buy slaves from the slave trader Khumaran to work in your shop. You can order them to produce the weapons you designed or to work directly in the mines. Thanks to medieval ethics, you can do all this without paying them a single copper, disregarding health and safety, and skipping unnecessary pizza parties that would motivate them. Initially, your slaves' first few weapons may be of poor quality due to their inexperience, but as they work, their skills will improve, allowing them to work faster and produce higher-quality weapons.

Various QoL Features

Based on players feedbacks, we've also added several quality-of-life features in this update. Here are the highlights: • Weapon Design Save: You can now save and name your weapon designs at the design table, saving you the hassle of recreating them each time. These saved designs will also be useful for production orders given to your slaves. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/9fb543db717077baac1b2e69fbbdfcbe002533a6.png • Character Menu (Inventory): By pressing the default C key, you'll open the character menu, where you can view all your ores, coal, and uncut wood. This menu also shows your money, reputation, slaves, and usable production buildings. You can assign tasks to your slaves directly from this menu. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/2d979875617fec01bcbbdbe6910d2b2acca071af.png Along with these main features, there are many other improvements and additions:

Improvements / Balance

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/1b2532b2f58d66dac57456da59f41d24fb71d529.png • Weapon Design Desk: You can now select and see the effects of different quench types on weapons. • Tutorial Scene: Added indicators to show players which tools to select at each stage. • Tutorial Music: Changes after speaking with "The One." • Tutorial Dagger Ore: Changed from gold to maradra ore. • Assembly Desk: If you've held down the hammering too long, you can cancel with the right-click. • Lathe: Added the ability to fix the height of chisels. • Music: Added new musics and removed tracks that could cause licensing issues on some platforms. • Other: Added a small animation for respawning dummies, sound notifications for special customers, key info for using some machines, and fixed some UI responsiveness issues.

Bug Fixes

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/28ee6f777136377fcbf4e5a9a4557c4f79786c10.gif • Automatic graphics adjustment at game start to prevent crashes on some devices. • Fixed the issue where grass density in Nurenor Pass (mining area) wasn't affected by graphics settings. • Corrected the info bar on the weapon design table from going off-screen. • Fixed the bug where fast-thrown weapons could pass through walls. • Resolved the issue where special customers without weapon orders would take your held weapon. • Corrected grammar errors in some dialogues. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the players who provided valuable feedback through our Steam and Discord channels. Seeing the game become more enjoyable as we incorporate your requests brings immense joy to our development team. Your support is truly appreciated.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/024b6388136cfca99e7a54008d985c8c60afef2a.png Greetings, Blacksmiths, We are excited to announce that an update for Medieval Blacksmith will be released on July 24, 2024. This update will introduce a range of new features, significantly expanding our capabilities and allowing for the creation of a variety of new weapons.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/9023a60ccedacb85e2587b2a978dc0ff6a2ff926.jpg Greetings blacksmiths, It's time to give your hammer a rest and grab your pickaxe now. Because the Nurenor Pass is now ready for access! In this new place where you can dig and extract precious ores, not only basic ores such as iron and copper, but also coal and even alloys that are difficult to produce will be waiting for you among the hard rocks. So it is now possible to produce weapons much cheaper with the ores you collect by traveling around with your car. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44895334/431858905b1903ba5606e10875770eff3156efd1.gif • We have made some changes to the save file format in this update.
