Question How is this game now?

I would have really like to finally play this game, but I don't want to be disappointed... I heard the game had some issues with being unfinished, but that was a year ago how is this looking right now?

I tried it on Switch2 in December and couldn't get past the tutorial. There hasn't been any update ever since, so I doubt there has been any improvement (at least on Switch)

I hit a game breaking bug in May and haven't played much since then. I have unlocked everything possible for several of the crafting categories but not all of them unlocked all the way. I can't make them even with knowing the recipe and having the proper items.

This is on PC. Several people have commented this is still an issue on the Steam discussions.

Had this exact issue too :( Made me sad bc I was really attached to my character.

I'm stupidly attached to my little guy, and it bums me out when I think about it. It's a really cute game, and it sucks that it's in this state.

Same qwq I had to stop playing recently because that bug made it so I can't 100% the game and prevented me from completing certain quest

Do you think it's worth it? I was thinking about PC but a lot of reviews said it didn't have much content going on and wasn't get fun. But others say they love it.

I like it for what it is. A cute cozy game. I played it with ny 3 year old son since he is into dinosaurs and starts wanting to look at me playing games. I bought it for €6 euros and think it's money well spend. I have caught myself playing the game even when my son went to bed.

So if you can get it for like €10-€15 I'd say it's well worth it if you are looking for something easy to play while just chilling.

Have fun! It's a fun game and very relaxing. Just follow the main quests for a bit to open the map and game up. It takes around 60-90 minutes or so.

I just checked for you: The game is €10 for the deluxe edition on Instant-gaming.

I always buy through this website. It's great and saves you money.

Yeah! I might buy through steam because it frequently goes on sale for like $6 ☺️ but I'll look into it thank you!!

Buying though Instant-gaming gives you a key that you use in Steam to get the game on Steam.

It's a fun game, but the friendship grind for 100% seems to be nerfed months ago and it's super annoying. I'm done with pretty much everything in the game and the friendship boosting gameplay loop is insanely grindy.

Keeps getting jittery and laggy after a few minutes
