Forge a sword in 60 seconds, smash a boss with it, forge a better one.

HOW TO PLAY 

Move with WASD, Arrow keys, or a gamepad stick. 

Walk to the coal pile to grab coal, then to the furnace to feed it. There are no keys to pick up or drop, just touch them. 

The more coal you burn during the minute, the hotter your forge and the better the sword you make. 

When the timer hits 0, your sword strikes the boss. More heat means more damage, and more damage means more gold. 

During the minute, click with your mouse the boosts that pop up (speed and x2 heat).

 Spend your gold in the skill tree to forge faster, carry more coal, and get luckier drops.

Slay it and a bigger one takes its place. How far can you get? 

THE THEME - COUNT DOWN 

Two clocks tick against you: the 60 seconds of forging heat, and the boss's health bar that you whittle down run after run.
