My Time at Sandrock News

[h2]Howdy all![/h2]

Come ask us questions during our second Reddit AMA! The primary topic will be My Time at Sandrock, but we’ll answer questions about My Time at Portia or anything else you’re curious about, too!

You can start asking questions after we post the thread in Portia Subreddit on Thursday, at least 12 hours before we start answering questions for a few hours on Friday, August 6, 2021, starting at 10am GMT+8 (Aug, 5th, 10pm EDT)!

[h3]We're elated! [/h3]My Time at Sandrock won "Best Game of the Year'', "Best Chinese Game", "Best Casual Game","Best Single Player Game" and "Best Quality of Art" from the highly competitive ChinaJoy-Game Connection INDIE GAME Development Awards.



Thank you to the ChinaJoy-Game Connection for awarding us this! We'll keep working hard to make ever-better games.

And we genuinely appreciate all our players from all over the world. Without your support throughout our growth, we couldn't have gotten where we are, and you mean everything to us!

[h3]We sincerely thank you.[/h3]

Thank you for the overwhelming support for the My Time series! We surpassed 100,000 downloads for Sandrock Story Demo a few weeks ago! Originally, the demo was supposed to be only available for the Steam Next Fest, but due to a lot more demand than we expected after the fact, we’re now putting it back up for download from July 29, 2021 to be included in the F5 Games Festival! The demo’s now available on the My Time at Sandrock Steam page.

We hope you enjoy this taste of the My Time games! Feel free to email us at [email protected] or join our Discord to tell us about feedback or bugs! All feedback is appreciated, and wishlisting Sandrock on Steam will help us unlock new goal rewards!

Feel free to stream and share content from this story demo as much as you want!

[h3]To Kickstarter backers [/h3]
Apologies that the demo cuts a little bit into the exclusive content you can share. But the demo is just the tip of the iceberg. We’re still waiting on ratings certification, so please don’t share beta-exclusive content yet, as the NDA is still in effect. That said, soon, we’ll give you more info and an update with lots of new content: the first batch of relationship and romance content, along with raising pets, upgrading your machines, and more!

Thanks for all your patience and feedback. It means the world to us, and it’s helping make the world of Sandrock better for all.
[h3]
Rock on!

More about 400K wishlist goal
We reached 340k wishlists a few days ago and are very confident that we’ll reach the 400K wishlist goal before Early Access releases! Please keep sharing the news about the game and encouraging others to wishlist Sandrock on Steam so we can get there soon and start working towards the 500k goal!

The 400k reward will introduce two completely new romanceable characters that have not been designed yet. One is a male writer from Atara who became interested in Sandrock after that event at the end of the demo, and the other is a female childhood friend from Highwind who comes to Sandrock after you. How exciting!

Workshop Assets
"East or west, home is the best."
Have you been planning how to build your workshop/home in this desert town? There’s going to be more ways to customize your home, so here’s some sneak peak!



Seasons in Sandrock
From the colorful flowers and the fresh smell of nature in spring to white crystalline snows in winter, you'll experience four seasons of life in Sandrock and can enjoy each season, phase, and colour of your new Builder life.


Beyond the surroundings’ aesthetic changes, seasons in Sandrock will also impact plants, commissions, relationships, stores’ inventory, and more.

Enjoying the My Time series? We’re bringing you some behind the scenes development, let's check it out now. Annnd don’t forget, Portia is on sale at 66% off on Steam during the Steam Summer Sale!

-Voiceacting
We signed a professional voice acting company to do voiceovers for Sandrock. Voiceovers will be done all at once after the script is finished (probably at the end of this year), which will help keep voiceovers consistent and avoid having lines be intermittently unvoiced.

-Indoors decorating
We've updated interiors for the Sandrock City Hall and Commerce Guild. More indoor decorations are in the works. Soon, you’ll find that your favorite NPCs' houses will have their own personal touches.


-Present 24 hours day to night changing
Let's enjoy the most peaceful time from sunrise to sunset and watch the incredible day and night views, thanks to our new lighting system in Sandrock.
