The steam festival is coming up in 1 month and I'll be doing a stream of my game through this page! I've been on the steam festival before but it still hasn't gotten the recognition this game deserves so I'm hoping things will change since a lot has changed from the last years I've participated. Been working on this game for 4 years so of course things changed a lot. I've even added a bit new m…
Hi Everyone! 2 months before the steam festival and I'm starting to transition from game development to marketing. I'm doing this because I'm a solo developer and the game still needs more awareness. I'm still working on the game, but not as much until the steam festival is over. It's going to take a lot of time for my game to be on the front page of steam so planning ahead and producing conten…
I get this question a lot. What makes my game so different from Stardew Valley? Sometimes they're genuine and other times, it's a toxic question if it's worded wrongly. So I'm here to answer that question! I wrote a blog about it here And a video here. Also, I'll be in the steam October festival so look forward to that!
Lot's of things has changed over the past month. One, I've updated the demo, It's a lot longer. There are tides. The story is a bit further as well. Two, I'm dropping the translation because it's becoming not worth it as the game doesn't have a lot of overseas players. It's better to focus on english than spending another 3 months on translations. I do plan on translating the game after the rel…
So I spent 4 days and all my hours to create this video meme that I wanted to do when Genshin Impact content creators made a meme of a music called Dancin. Yup, that's it. To promote my game, I made a music video of a meme.
Hi, It's been a while but I have good news! I'm seriously starting a youtube channel to help promote Harvest Island more. This is a good thing for you because I'll be making Harvest Island Content! So, some of these content will reveal new areas in Harvest Island, but it's purely comical. Sometimes I'll post developer progress but most of the time, I just want to make you laugh. It's something…
I've added an updated demo to harvest island which reflects almost the final version of the game. If anyone played the game during the steam festival, this won't be new, but for new people who just started following Harvest Island, this is a big update. The game is still roughly 15min long but I've added new UI interface when interacting with the god statue. I've also added translations to the…
The demo is out to play! It's been a long time since I showed you the last demo and a lot has changed! Enjoy playing it! I've decided to do an email list of Harvest Island specifically and the process of developing it. You'll learn about my development journey through these emails. Sign up !
Harvest Island will be in the October steam festival. It's been nearly 2 years since I started developing Harvest Island and I can safely say that the game will be released sometime early next year. So, to all my fans who have been keeping up with my twitter and following me on discord, thank you! With this upcoming October Steam Festival, you guys will get to play an improved version of Harves…
I have good news and I have bad news. Let's start with the bad news. I have to revert Harvest Island before the big demo version update. Which was released a few months ago. Which means, you'll be playing Harvest Island Beginnings from when I first initially designed the game without the community feedback. Why? Because that version had all the translations to my game. I cannot translate the ne…
-Fixed a bug where it was difficult to get the true ending of the demo. -Added a feature where you can feed livestock animals. -Added a feature where you can buy materials.
I've uploaded a slightly small patch where I fixed the game's bugs. -Adjusted respawn time of items -fixed some graphical issues near the end of the demo when offering to the gods
Enjoy the new demo! But, unfortunately, I can not translate the game's demo as of right now because my budget isn't there and I do plan on editing the story a tad bit. For those international players, I'm sorry I couldn't translate the game for you. You'll have to bear with it for a couple of months before the final release of the game comes out. In the meantime, please report any bugs and any…
It's been 4 months since the closed demo and I will soon upload a new demo, for free and open! It's coming soon this month after some testing and bug fixing, but this demo will replace Harvest Island Beginnings demo. It'll expand from 15-30min to 1-2hours long. A lot has changed since the closed beta demo as it was designed to get feedback from players. I think you'll like the updates to this n…
Harvest Island has a lot of work before it gets released. There's so much to do and the only person working on it all is the developer: Me. Especially marketing. So, I am opening a closed beta demo until Feb 15th to play the game! With whatever I have worked on will be playable on Jan 31st. It's not perfect, but it's more than enough to enjoy the game. A lot more than the demo. Like 2-4+ hours…
Bugs fixed for Harvest Island Translation Fixes -Added missing translation for Italian, Korean, and Turkish -Fixed Samantha's Korean Name -Fixes to Korean Translation -Minor Fixes to Polish Translation (Translation of Bless) Game Story Fixes -Fixed a small dialogue between Will and Samantha when catching the raccoon -Changed twitter to @yobobgames at the end of demo Game Mechanic Fixes -Fixed t…
If you just finished the game, thank you for playing! It means a lot to me as a developer to have you play my game. It was a lot of work developing harvest island and pushing out a demo for it. The toughest work of all is the translations. That took many days to import into the game. I hope the translations are accurate haha. Let me know how it is for each of the countries! Aside from that, I'm…
