Forge the Fated Blade and face the Destroyer!

Gameplay

You have 5 days before the Destroyer arrives to... well, destroy everyone. Collect metals to forge the Fated Blade, and slay it with A Single Swing(tm)!

Well, hopefully, anyway. Best of luck!

Background

This is a bite-sized experience I made based on Anthony Hobday's solo RPG idea, A Single Swing. I thought it would be a quick, simple thing to make, and it was!

But, it was so simple that I ended up bolting on some extra stuff to embellish it, haha. To continue in the spirit of RNG getting improved by more RNG, I added in procgen sword descriptions and monster names. Then I finished up with a dollop of retro-ish graphics and music to keep the minimalist feel.
