Under rating threshold (show) I would like the ability to sell things to the shop also, even at a large penalty. I have so much useless bronze in my inventory that I'd be willing to trade it for even one enchanted grip.

Under rating threshold (show) Still a time management game that Flipline Studios has excelled at, but unique in terms of setting and "purpose". Plus, the fact that I can watch the fruits of my labor in action is an epic plus. 5/5

Under rating threshold (show) When this first loaded and Papa Louis popped up, I immediately thought, "It's a trap! Nooooo! I don't want to make more food." However, this is a much welcomed change of pace. Killing things or helping to kill things is always good.

Under rating threshold (show) A papa game that doesn't expect you to be a one-man factory with maximized time efficiency? SCORE! The one thing that has been bothering me the most in the Papa games up until now is how you always end up feeling so stressed out because you *HAVE* to juggle so many things at once to get the best scores. Here, I can take all the time I want.

Under rating threshold (show) A gallery of our best epic and non-epic weapons might be nice, or a few save slots for weapons (or view other players constructions). Different kinds of bookmarks might be nice too (e.g. one bookmark to purchase from shop, one bookmark to either don't use their pieces up or highlight to construct them)

Under rating threshold (show) My favorite of your games yet. All of the pressure of rushing and multitasking to get a good score being put towards a bonus instead of how you did overall is a very much welcomed change for me. I get to enjoy the game for what it is instead of having to worry about rushing everything. 5/5.

Under rating threshold (show) definitely need to be able to sell lower minerals later in the game, as you progress further you find yourself use gold and crystal as your main material. the bronze, iron and steel just piles up. selling bronze for 1 crystal, iron for 2, and steel for 3, or selling in bulk for certain amount. let's say 20 iron for 30 crystal. i could use the crystal to buy enchanted parts.

Under rating threshold (show) Usefulness of epic polearm weapons is somewhat questionable, since they use twice as much parts (which are also contested between axes, maces and slightly by swords and bows), while not giving twice as much in return.

Under rating threshold (show) One suggestion I could make as an update for either this game or the next Jacksmith one: have it keep track of the stats of the finished weapons. Basicly it would be a small list with the combined health, power, luck, etc, etc of the finished weapons. More of a memory aid so we know what in the heck we're already throwing at today's batch of enemies. One example: do we really need another weapon focussed on fire when we've already finished 40+ fire bonus today?

Under rating threshold (show) My idea is kind of a different version of Zeratul24's comment. Instead of trading in ores for enchanted grips, I would like the ability to trade in ores for other ores ( for example, 3 bronze= 1 steel, and 5 steel= 1 iron)

Under rating threshold (show) I despised all of the papa louie games before this one. Even if you are not a fan, however, Jacksmith is worth trying. It avoids all the most annoying elements of the other games: there is no "waiting time" component, so you don't have to stress about getting things done quickly; there is a point other than improving the store (i.e., killing monsters); I am allowed to make design choices for my customers so long as I fulfill their basic request. 4/5 because it gets repetitive too quickly, but is still an excellent game.

Under rating threshold (show) Maybe you could make the epic weapons more durable than normal weapons. Other than giving everyone +6 fire, Firebringer sucks. You learn how to make the falcion sword when you're making a majority of weapons out of gold, so copper is obsolete. Bringing it, as well as other iron/bronze epics, just doesn't hold up late game as they break the second/third tier down. You would expect epic weapons to be harder to break, or not break at all because of the time and resources needed to get the right items for it.

Under rating threshold (show) Now for suggestions, I'd love to see some shop upgrades like we had for the Papa games. Maybe a buzzer or timer to let us know when our ore is at the right temp? Or how about being able to buy guides to help us line up parts? I love the ability to buy various parts. I'd like to be able to a couple different indicators other than just "bookmarked" though. Maybe have 1 bookmark for the weapon you're building (and be able to display the recipe in the window you're making it in), another bookmark that flags parts that you want to hold on to for complete or near complete recipes, and then another bookmark for a "watch list" of items that you'd like to find. Also, I'd love to see a way to decorate your wagon-shop. Maybe trophies from some of the monsters you've killed? Maybe have different ornamentation awarded by the various achievements you accomplish? That would be a nice little extra bonus. Anyhow, I love this game!

Under rating threshold (show) Really like the game. I just wish the loot auto collected. I don't like having to constantly scroll the mouse around. Between that and firing the catapult, I don't really get to watch the fight or look at the enemy much at all, and I feel that takes away from the game a bit. For what this game is, that is the only flaw I see. Fix that and I could relax and enjoy the battle a bit more.

Under rating threshold (show) my only gripe is that later in the game when you're exclusively using gold and crystal weapons, the other epic weapons made of lesser materials tend to break easily, I mean shouldn't EPIC weapons be more durable than their composite materials? They're EPIC after all

Under rating threshold (show) does epic weapon boosts stack? like two of the same weapon that adds the same boost, instead of say +5 to luck would it be +10 if i got two of them?

Yeah they all stack, so two +5 Luck weapons will give everyone an extra +10 Luck.

Under rating threshold (show) Just a fair warning, it took me almost seven hours to get the last badge. After a while, the game just starts to feel tedious. It's a fun idea, but could use a little more story and maybe some mini-games here and there to break the monotony.

Under rating threshold (show) Very nice game. I had some trouble early on winning the days but once I got going it was all good. I never could get any of the maces to more than 99% except the last one which is easy to do. I would use the 4 corners and back button for the 1st 2 maces then fill in the rest. Also maybe it is just me but it would randomly lag and freeze for a second when I was building the pikes handle on like piece 3 or 4. This make me want to keep playing to get the last badges even though I have won. Keep up the good work.

Under rating threshold (show) The completionist in me cringes at the unsalvageable special designs - I would *really* prefer if we didn't move on to the next battle unless we beat all the enemies. Or at least if we had the ability to go back.

Developer response from FliplineStudios

Designs aren't specific to each trail, so if you miss a chest, that Design inside will appear on a another trail, so you'll still be able to collect them all eventually.

Under rating threshold (show) It would be nice if we could access the design screen from inside the shop without having to exit it first. It would be even better if we could see how pieces in the shop relate to known weapon blueprints so that we knew better which ones to buy, or else a "Bookmark all" "Clear all bookmarks" toggle button.

Under rating threshold (show) Ok I have only played this for about 10 minutes so far, but I can say with absolute certainty. JOB WELL DONE! As someone who has played videogames since before he could even speak properly I love that you have taken every facet of all of your previous build ______ game to serve to customers to add in a clever unique way to do battle. In addition your menus are streamlined and easy to navigate. Actually even more so than most of the triple AAA development studios out there. Great Game!
