Instabuy. Been waiting for this ever since I saw the Kickstarter.
15 eur seems like a more appropriate full price. wonder why the demo's not available on gog, it's on steam.
Simple but pleasant enough graphics unlike some other new games that did not hear we left 320x240 pixels behind us more than thirty years ago.

Noooo, farming/crafting/exploration game. My only weakness... well, except for lot of other weaknesses, of course.

I think this will fit into my library just nice. Now how do I fit it into my schedule too...?
Seems fun, wishlisted for now.
I'm not into farming games - I'd rather grow my own produce in a real field :) the graphics are very cute though.Maybe I would like to do exploration but without having to care for the farming aspect.

Well, when games went 3D I stopped liking the graphics and almost stopped playing and caring too much for games, and I am happy to see again beautiful pixel art like the one that made me love games 30 years ago. And I don't think I'm alone. :P

Early 3D was ugly and mostly aged even worse, but even back then 2D games moved past the pixelation we're being bombarded with today by lazy devs trying to coast on such nostalgia.

Not that this game is a particularly good example of modern graphics. Way to anime and twee for me. And focus on farming and crafting? That's the stuff I always avoid in games like the plague. Hell, I actually contracted a few plagues in games that were more fun than crafting :D

Very nice. I didn't know whether this was coming here at all since everywhere else, including the devs' webpage, only mention "STEAM!!!!" =P

I'll probably grab this later today. :)
Does seem very bright, uplifting and fun.
Sun and palms and survival and farm... just hope for some mechanism of soil desalination so campaign can be longer ;) yh like it

Dogmaus:
2D pixel art is just fine with enough pixels and colours. I played one today with 256 colours and 1024xwhatever-it-was pixels. Of course making so many pixels is a lot more work than doing a super low amount. I did not play any 3D games before 2005.

So the game was made for the Nintendo Switch. I wonder if you can play it with keyboard and mouse instead of a controller.
Really cute game!

Yes, you can. But you can't rebind keys, unfortunately.
