What Did We Play Yesterday?

I finally pulled the trigger on Sun Haven and have been goofing around with it but keep forgetting to take screenshots. So far, I like it! The graphics are cute and everything is visually interesting. You can play as all kinds of characters and there's lots of customization there.

It's like Fantasy Stardew Valley But More, and it has a few different features that keep things fresh. There is no energy in this game, for example. Mines are traversed by using copper keys, rather than having to dig for the exit. The town is freaking huge and I've barely explored it.

I've mostly been running around doing random things and barely farming at all. There's just a lot of EVERYTHING right out the gate. The museum is huge, there's crap tons of recipes, etc.

There are some neat unique touches. Eating different items can give small permanent upgrades (diminishing with quantity). A recurring thing is a monster will come to my farm and threaten harm unless I get rid of it, and it has a ridiculous amount of HP. You can recruit up to 2 villagers to help, but as you can see from the screenshot, they barely leave a dent in the thing. The "bad things" aren't really that bad. Weeds clutter up the farm, but you get quick XP for cutting them down. Rocks clutter the farm, but many have copper which is convenient. And so on. Eventually the baddie gets bored and wanders off.

After I bought the game, I figured out the developer has labor issues and maybe some other stuff. I haven't fully delved into that yet so I'm not sure what's going on.
