Well every Harvest Moon game recently has been garbage. So remaking one of the good Harvest Moon games should be a safe bet. I mean they can't screw this up right?

Don't like the look the look of the first gameplay image, mainly the ground looks bleh, other two are ok.

edit: Oh it's Story of Seasons. Might actually be good.

The graphics look like it was originally intended for 3DS and then shifted over to Switch midway through development

Looks like a Stardew Valley ripoff.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

You do know that most everyone considers Stardew Valley the spiritual successor to Harvest Moon.

Pretty sure a cell-shaded artstyle would fit the game better than some low quality 3D style.

Completely 2d would be fine, if they're going for 3d it needs to be more polished than this.

At least it's better than Harvest Moon Light of Hope.

Looks like a browser based game from 2006.

The dev team that did Harvest Moon ended their relationship with Natsume decade ago. Harvest Moon has been rebranded in English Speaking countries as Story of Seasons and Natsume made a bunch of fake Harvest Moon games using the license; but none of the Harvest Moon dev staff worked on any games published by Natsume after 2009.
