Stardew Valley meets Animal Crossing in upcoming RPG

Pixelshire is one of those RPG games that has us Stardew Valley stans hooked. From its charming pixel art style to its expansive town-building elements, Pixelshire is combining many of our favorite cozy gameplay features to create a unique sandbox experience reminiscent of other role-playing titles such as Fantasy Life and cute games like Animal Crossing. Kappa Bits, the indie developer behind the upcoming game, has a lot in store for those of us looking to explore Arcadia in Pixelshire as soon as it releases.

What we've been working on! ๐Ÿ‘€

Hey everyone,

It's been a while since our last community post, so we wanted to give you an update on everything that's been happening in the world of Pixelshire!

[h3]๐Ÿน BOW AND ARROW ๐Ÿน[/h3]

The bow and arrow has been added as a new tool for players to use when fighting enemies from long range!

You will be able to craft a range of different types of arrows, from Iron Arrows to Frost Arrows, which will deal different amounts of damage to enemies thanks to their varying properties.



[h3]๐ŸŒŸ UPDATED UI ๐ŸŒŸ[/h3]

Our developer has been hard at work updating visual aspects of Pixelshire and making the UI much cleaner and, well, user-friendly! From the compass to the easy-to-access journal, you can see in the comparison pictures how much the UI has changed across the past few months.

--- OLD UI ---


--- NEW UI ---



[h3]๐Ÿ˜๏ธ NEW BUILDING DESIGNS ๐Ÿ˜๏ธ[/h3]

There has also been a lot of work done into building interiors recently! Here, you can see the cozy interior of the Town Hall. This is where you will most often find Eva, the Mayor of Pixelshire, who will be able to help you build your first house in this new land.



Fighter Valerie has also received some upgrades to her house! As you can see from the comparison pictures below, Valerie's house has grown in size, with two turrets where she can practice her combat skills. You can see that one turret features an archery target - with the addition of the bow and arrow, Pixelshire's mighty protector must practice this new skill!

--- NEW HOUSE ---



There is still so much we have been working on and haven't shown you yet - that will have to wait for another time! Keep up to date on everything Pixelshire on Twitter and Instagram, and join us in our Discord to let us know your thoughts about what we've been working on!
