- Livestock System - 16 May 2026
This week, I’m planning to add livestock buildings in patch 0.3. Players will be able to buy chicken coops and duck pens and place them freely. I'll need to write extra conditions to support this system, as well as add a daily random natural food spawn zone in the paddy fields. However, I’ve hit a roadblock with the animal wandering AI, since they're supposed to walk out of their pens to forage on their own, on top of being hand-fed. It’s turning out to be quite a complex system!
- v0.2.1 - 10 May 2026
Food Balance: Temporarily reduced the hunger depletion rate to better accommodate the current limited food options.New Item: Added craftable "Wooden Posts" (crafted from logs), allowing players to mark boundaries or partition areas more effectively.
- BanHown is now live! - 9 May 2026
Check out our latest update! We’ve added a "Relationship System" bond with your favorite characters through conversations to unlock their exclusive backstories. Plus, the new "Crafting System" is here to help you save some serious in-game cash!
- Dating mechanics - 3 May 2026
I originally planned to work on the character romance for patch 0.3.0, but while waiting for the Steam Review, it looks like the release might happen sooner than expected. I ran into a snag where I couldn't launch because the store page needed updates to match the current build. I guess I'll just keep polishing the game in the meantime!
- Shops & Upgrades - 26 April 2026
I’m currently rushing to finalize the artwork and transition from mockups to the final production assets. The crafting system is a must-have for launch day to ensure players can utilize their gathered resources this should effectively help reduce their in-game expenses. I plan to release it this coming Friday, as the upcoming long holiday seems like the perfect timing.
- v0.2.0: A More Flexible System - 5 April 2026
Even though it's just the initial version (v0.2.0) with a long development road ahead, it already features core systems that hint at the game's future direction.The fishing mechanics have been overhauled, and item placement has become a key focus. At launch, there won't be a crafting system yet; instead, you'll need to purchase items from the village. Most importantly, you can now move objects around. It might sound like a small detail, but since items used to be permanently fixed once placed, having this system is actually a huge help.
- Fishing for Survival - 28 March 2026
I’m bringing back a simple system that has a huge impact on the gameplay: Fishing. While in other games fishing might just be for selling items, in this game, it’s tied directly to the Hunger Meter, which is a core part of survival. If you run out of vegetables to eat, you can always go fishing to gather ingredients for cooking.Additionally, NPCs will no longer stand around 24/7. Villagers will now return to their homes when it’s time to sleep. Their schedules where they go and at what time will be defined by their unique personalities and daily routines.
- Preparing for v0.2.0 - 14 March 2026
Recently I’ve been pushing development really hard. The game’s name has already been finalized, and I’ve set it to public though there’s still a promotional video left to make in preparation for launch.It feels like a big leap in development. Going from v0.1.3 to v0.2.0 took almost three years.Thinking about it now, if the game is playable during development and the developer keeps adding new content over time, it wouldn’t be a bad thing. When old players return, their saves could still be supported by the updates. Most players prefer continuing with their old save files while getting new content to play.I’ve also split the map into two parts: the player’s home area and the main village. In the future, the interiors of NPC houses will be loaded separately, which shouldn’t cause any issues.
- In Game Cutscene - 8 March 2026
1. Storytelling & Cutscenes"To create a complete gaming experience, cutscenes are an essential element that cannot be overlooked. Currently, I am focusing on crafting the main storyline to showcase the charm of rural life, including an impactful opening sequence."2. Decoration & Item Management System"I am developing a decoration system that allows players to personalize their space according to their own style. This includes the storage chest system, which is a fundamental core of this game genre."3. Multi-language Support (Localization)"A crucial step for the future is designing a system that supports multiple languages. This will ensure that adding new languages to the game can be done seamlessly and efficiently."
