Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“ForgeRun is built around constant experimentation, replayability, and co-op fun. We want players to experience the core gameplay early, provide feedback on balance, new enemy types, and forging mechanics, and help shape how the game grows. Early Access lets us work directly with the community to make each run more exciting and each forge more rewarding.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect ForgeRun to remain in Early Access for ~6-12 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of ForgeRun is intended to build on the foundation we’re releasing in Early Access. Our goal is for the full release to feel richer, more stable, and more replayable than the initial Early Access version.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes:

Fully playable single-player and co-op horde survival mode

Dozens of augments and random forge items

Procedural wave scaling, gold and stat anvil systems

Working progression, leveling, and ability synergy systems

All core gameplay loops are functional and optimized for low-poly performance, but the content roster will continue expanding during Early Access.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. We plan to offer ForgeRun at a lower price during Early Access to reflect its in-development state. As the game expands with more content and polish, the price may increase for the full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We’ll involve players through:

Regular feedback posts on Steam

Developer updates detailing new features and changes

Transparency on upcoming content via patch notes and roadmap posts

Community input will directly shape new augments, class abilities, and forge designs.”

About This Game

ForgeRun is a fast-paced co-op arena survival game where blacksmiths become heroes. Battle endless swarms of enemies, gather fallen anvils, and forge powerful weapons and upgrades mid-fight to survive as long as you can.

Every run, you’ll face waves of goblins, pirates, undead, and other twisted foes, each more relentless than the last. Smash through them, collect gold, and use anvils to craft random items that permanently change your build. Stack crazy combinations, unlock new forging powers, and push your luck to see how far you can go.

Key Features

  • Forge on the Field – Pick up anvils during combat to craft random augments, weapons, and abilities on the fly.

  • Co-op Chaos – Team up with friends and forge your own builds together as you fight off massive hordes.

  • Endless Progression – Level up each run, collect rare prismatic augments, and build absurd synergies.

  • Swarm Survival – Battle diverse enemy factions like Goblins, Pirates, and Undead in increasingly chaotic arenas.

  • Gold & Glory – Earn gold from kills to purchase stat upgrades and become the ultimate forge champion.

  • Anvil-Powered Combat – Every run feels unique thanks to random item rolls and upgrade paths tied to your forges.

Will your team stand the test of the horde… or be crushed under your own creations? 

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

ForgeRun does not use AI to generate gameplay content, code, or behavior during gameplay.
All in-game systems, visuals, and logic are manually designed and scripted. However, AI tools were used outside of the game for marketing and support materials, such as assisting with text writing, image concepts, and store page descriptions.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

ForgeRun contains cartoonish fantasy violence and combat against enemy creatures such as goblins, pirates, and undead. Enemies are defeated through stylized attacks, particle effects, and light impact animations.
There are no depictions of realistic gore, sexual content, drug use, or self-harm. The tone is lighthearted and arcade-style, not realistic or graphic.
