2022 First Announcement: New Content and Optimization Overview

Greetings!

We meet again in the new year.
This time, we brought the content and some new additions (almost 100 items) based on the test feedback from last time.

This game will participate in the Steam Game Festival in February. There will be another content update before the event kicks off. We weclome everyone to tag along in the test.

Thank you for wishlisting and following our game.

Now, let’s get back to the game.
It’s time to introduce two new characters.


Wallis is the secretary of this town’s union. Having such affection for this town, she cares about the townsfolks’ life to the extent that people sometimes think she is overthinking.



Tuyaa is a tailor in this town. Her short temper is like a volcano that can easily lose control, but she often regret it after doing something out of impulse. Her favorite color is red.
