Fantastic titles made by people in their bedrooms.

I used to find it kinda stressful until i realised there was no time limit to the game like the usual harvest moons so once I realised that, I never find myself rushing around or overextending my ability to farm to grind more and just focused on what I was enjoying in the game which was a bit of everything.

Can relate. It’s the same for me but I have to constantly remind myself of the fact which is why I cant relax, sadly.

There is sort of a time limit though, you get your "review" at the end of the second year (at which point no new events happen). Also getting things planted in time for when the seasons change etc is kind of time-limiting.

But that's all detail, it's great that people can enjoy it without time pressures!

You can also get a new "review" whenever you want after that.

Well that's probably a good thing for playing casually. I think end of year 2 is the earliest though, so that's kind of a "soft" deadline.

Really? That sucks I'm sure I'm on year 3 and I've had events happen

[-] smeg@feddit.uk 1 points 8 months ago

Were they things that don't usually happen in years 1 and 2? I guess they could just be stuff that was added since I last played!

I only really played early on, not dabbled with it properly in years but I do remember things happening. It's not like I could only get things to happen in the first two years in game
