😡 To the people trying to shame me because my game looks like this and has no "AA"/AAA" 3d look: - it's my FIRST game, so yeah, i still learn - I'm ONE person + freelancers - it needs to run on the Switch too Just do it better when #gamdev is so easy.

#gamedev sucks #Steam reviews are getting stricter and stricter. Players expect everything to be perfect and only then it's worth a positive review (but playing 70 hours...) And why rate an early access game(limited content) as one fully completed?

All those "my game hit a gazillion wishlists" posts can be discouraging as an indie dev. Here's a reality check: not every story is a viral hit - and that's okay! My game didn't blow up (yet🤪?), but I'm proud. Shoutout to the 5 awesome players - you mean the world to me! 😂💚

WTF! I initially defended the $70 as justified for a AAA open world RPG. But all the paid stuff + micro transaction already for reelase?! NOPE. This is indeed GREEDY Capcom!

-Be Capcom -Release a $70 Single Player game -Shoves Denuvo -Shoves Microtransations and PAID character edit vouchers -Shoves anti-cheat Reminder: ALL in a Single Player game. Is it any wonder why the game's getting Mostly Negative on Steam right now?

Some say $24.99 is “too much for an "indie". I spent 5+ years making a huge classic Harvest Moon–style farming life sim game with ADDITIONAL full monster taming & breeding mechanics.

After working over 4 years on my game i'm starting to get depressed + tired. Many things don't work out + the fear it won't sell and i can't remain a #gamedev. I want to stay positive, but i just can't anymore. Sorry. My game looks also exactly the opposite how i feel currently

Thank you to my husband for pointing out that my first attempt of a chocolate river looked like “shit water”

For those saying my game looks like "ugly mobile shovelware": 1) I’m a programmer + it's is my first game. I never touched 3d modeling before. 2) The very first years, I did it after my full-time job, funding everything from my own savings (then Kickstarter saved me thankfully)

Please stop shaming game devs because they do it "for money" - the worst thing is that it's not the players but the #gamedev scene itself that mainly does this😥 And yes, i do it for money. It's my dream job and it's a lot of fun! But i also need to eat and pay rent.
