Before The Green Moon

This game is truly an experience. The aesthetic evokes a major sense of nostalgia for older polygonal games, and although the town is small there is always something to do. The goal of this game is really whatever you make of it. Do you want to immediately ditch the planet? Or do you want to stay and chat with the small town community (population 6.5 including you)? Or do you just want to sit in a chair and absorb the atmosphere? There are no achievements, no overarching to-do quests, only you and the townsfolk and the giant elevator looming in the background. For those looking for a slow yet deeply-feeling farming sim this is for you. Also, the 'dogs' are amazing.

MUCH prefer this to Stardew. The best possible version of a much more realistic depiction of what a farming town is like. Was that a real orchestra the end screen? I do not expect that from a small indie title and you got me.

unlike every life sim game since acpg, this game doesn't rely on cheap gimmicks to encourage players to chill the *** out, stop grinding, and respect/appreciate the world and the neighbors you share it with. beautiful game built with a respectable game design philosophy and philosophy philosophy give it a shot, it's well worth the price. steam tracks gametime on steamdeck in a *** way, i've happily put 20+ hrs on this game. this my #1 rainy-day game. fresh, charming, and genuinely relaxing. please please please don't let this be the last we see of this world yall built turnfollow!
