Lotado de pronome neutro, mesmo escolhendo a opção de não aparecer isso pra mim, totalmente desnecessário isso.

I really wanted to like this game. I purshased it when early access released, then waited a year and a half to give the devs some time to add content and polish the whole thing.

Unfortunately, after 10ish hours of gameplay, I just cant. The game feels empty : there is no story, the quests are basically fetch quests and NPC have no personality (they sometimes even have the same lines). Controls are clunky. You spend the most of you time sailing from point A to point B.

The game had potential, but it didn't live up to expectations. I don't understand the amount of positive reviews in this state. I'll come back in a few years, and really hope things change.

I came here dreaming of an Animal Crossing-like experience, and I got some of what I want, but, in fairness to the devs, it is clear that what I wanted isn't what their intentions with the game was, so some of my complaints I could give the game would just be me being a nitpicky player.

What I will say is, Its an absolutely adorable game, and I love how genuine of an effort there is to put real story and lore into the game that is surprisingly weighty. Unfortunately though, the game as of now is very rough around the edges, and the progression, while not bad at first, slowly turns into a slog. The satisfaction of completing projects is great, but the slowness of progression creeps in more and more on you. It takes way too long to get a speed upgrade four boat, and I was honestly hoping that at some point I could actually get a proper boat rather than just the bathtub. Some of the quests are really poorly telegraphed with very ambiguous way markers, too.

For the time being, I simply can't recommend this game, but its very, very close to being there. Give the devs sufficient time to clean up the loose ends, and we could have a real gem here.

I purchased this around when it first came to Early Access (Sept. 2024). Back then is when I played the bulk of my experience, around 7-8 hours. For the time, it was great. It ran pretty well, the world seemed cool and the Ocean aspect was fun. I had shelved the game to wait for more updates, which they seem to have been doing this whole time. Yet I can't really tell honestly.

My biggest gripe with this coming back, is the lack of sound design is still a problem . On release, minimal sound effects for cutscenes etc? That's fine, they'll fix it surely. I came back yesterday and played around an hour from scratch to see if they've worked on the start of the game. The only thing I ever hear is the music, even when I turn it all the way down/off, there is like barely any other sound aside from maybe a run and some of the tools like hitting things but even that's being generous. If things aren't polished with sound everywhere, I can deal with it, but I rather enjoy when my games have sounds that help immerse me in the world. And the critter talk is annoying, I don't think you can alter how its implemented at all just lower it or turn it off.

Pretty sure they've adjusted the controls for gamepad, its ok and I don't mind it once I figured it out, but it certainly doesn't follow the norm however. For my computer, the game ran well, it seems to be a bit better optimized already compared to things like Garden Paws which was near impossible for me to get to play while looking good at its release. Also, It does try to be diverse and inclusive of genders and pronouns, etc. That's great, but all the characters just look rather 'ugly.' When making a character, my biggest struggle was trying to find something that looks just 'okay', I wasn't amazed at the variety since it all looked pretty blah to me.

A lot of the game I would like to say I love and enjoy, but I can't anymore since the lack of QoL over adding new features seems to be a problem. I would suggest they focus on fixing everything wrong on the home island and starter areas. What is going to keep me playing to reach their new features If I can't even enjoy the first few hours of gameplay?

TL:DR
Would I recommend a new player buy this? No.
It certainly has potential as others have said, but I think it's going to take many more years for that to even come about at this point. And I'm not sure I even care to try and stick around for that. I enjoyed it when it was fresh and new, but after so long it still feels entirely unpolished.

In the state it's in right now, I can't recommend to anyone. There's too many ways to get softlocked, the direction pointers for quests that lead you off the island to others or underwater are useless, the lighthouse quest issues still aren't fixed (after looking at the discussions, it's been a long time).

It's cute, the art style is like Animal Crossing meets My Time At Portia, you can be an anthro, demon, human, or mix and match physical traits. It gives off post-apocalyptic vibes with all the scrap, a really unique game with some farming & crafting mechanics, as well as the idea of building your own village, choosing which new villagers join, building friendships & assigning them jobs at different buildings as you unlock them.

However, it is lacking QoL features, especially where the map is concerned. It also sounds tedious that you can build vending machines, candy stalls & other tourist attractions, but you have to cook everything & stock it all yourself.

I just hope that the main quests get fixed soon because if I can't unlock the lighthouse, I'm not going to be able to unlock anything else. Also cannot find blueprints that I need to progress. It's very frustrating. But I wish the devs good luck in completing the game, it has a lot of potential.

(With my specs, I can run everything on high, but locking at 60FPS is recommended to avoid visual stuttering.)
