Read the full description

Throw clay on a wheel, fire it in a kiln, then mend whatever cracks with gold. Goldmend is a pottery game built on kintsugi, the Japanese craft of repairing ceramics with gold: each gold seam adds 40% of the base price to a piece. Twelve written commissions from named patrons, then endless generated ones. Five glazes and nine shapes, all earned by playing. A slow mode switches cracking off. Every sound is synthesised live. Android today, iPhone next.
