Reception

The game was positively received by critics in early access, receiving comparisons with Stardew Valley due to its pixel-art aesthetic and gameplay. Alice Bell of Rock Paper Shotgun said that she "can't get over how lovely it is", and that the trailer had an "impeccable sense of comedic timing".[1] Hope Bellingham of GamesRadar+ called the game "similar to a pixel-art version of Kiki's Delivery Service", and remarked that it was a "cozy game" that they "definitely recommend".[2] Glenn Wilson of Gamezebo called the game's day/night system "clever", as it changes the behavior of the game's creatures.[3] Lauren Morton of PC Gamer called the game's look "undeniably cute" with "some pretty swell tunes".[4]
