Tangental, but I’d love to see a toggle sneak option (mirroring the toggle run option), which could sort of be a solution, though I think your idea feels totally correct.

I think this comes through differently on different monitors/operating systems. I’m playing on a Mac laptop, with the gamma all the way up and my screen set to maximum brightness, I literally thought it was part of the lore that there was no moon because I have never once been able to see anything at night without a light. Absolute pitch black, every night. It’s terrifying and I kinda dig the lore that I thought it was… but yeah if there’s a moon that is supposed to be illuminating things it isn’t working in a noticeable way on my system.

Does it actually destroy the tools in the rack, or does it just drop them and then they despawn? Seems like somewhat buggy/unintended behavior if the non flammable dropped items do burn.

Stone path makes you walk faster! I just discovered this… so many of my TOBG wishes and dreams are coming true. It’s beautiful.

The maple seeds spinning is pretty great, and it’s particularly funny when they land in water with a “ker-plunk”, sounding like a stone. Ahhh the infinite fractal spiral of details that one must face to make a video game. I love how the foxes hang out in pairs sometimes, and run away together. I swear sometimes the leading one looks back to see if the other is still with them. Makes me feel bad about killing one… and I’m like… ohhh… but look… they were a happy couple. Only right thing to do is eat them both I guess, but usually one gets away.

I’ve done a fair amount of iron work in real life, I learned on 1890s era equipment, which is a bit more advanced than what the game is representing. Finishing anything in a single heat is not typical in my experience, but that’s only so relevant to what’s fun in a video game. About the only thing I normally did in one heat was making a single nail, and it’s only the last part, using the nail header, that you really have to be quick about. New to the game, have not made it past bronze yet, gotta say this is the coolest representation of forging metal I’ve ever played. Of course it’s not totally accurate but I feel like it “captures the vibe”, which is as much reality as I want in my game anyway. I do think the wooden tongs should last about 30 seconds instead of being good enough that I haven’t even considered sparing the metal to replace them yet. Would be hilarious if their durability drained super fast and then they turned into a torch and dropped whatever you were holding when it ran out. I guess I’ll find out if I think working iron is frustrating once I get there.
