KickStarter Goal (romance, too much)

[Coltrek]

I think there are too many romance goals, I thought this game is for building, but a dating simulation?
I like the developer to put more emphasis on the physical part of the game.
Maybe some of my ideas might work...
1. collecting special items that you can merge together to make a new item and merge them together and so on.
2. Capture every creatures or plants.
3. games like hide go seek, tag, hidden items.
4. instant transport from anywhere.
5. more translations (like Türkiye)

1. Sounds just awful, like a mobile game.
2. That's what achievements are for.
3. I like this one a lot.
4. I also like this one a lot, you have something close in Sandrock if you turn off the yakmel cart cutscene, really reduces the time.
5. That would be nice for those player.

1. Isn't this what we do already with finding relic pieces and putting them back together in the machine.
2. You might have a reason to capture every creature if the zoo becomes a thing, kind of reminds me of trapping animals in Dinkum.
3. This would be fun, especially if you could play those games with your children.
4-5 Ofc these would be welcomed.

This game is more for females, I'm removing my pledge for Evershine.
Too much romance and not enough building.

As I've been reminded, farming games that follow from Harvest Moon and others do generally appeal to women as a game. Especially the relationship building.

The productivity side is the more interesting part to us guys. So long as this game gives me enough of that then I'd say they are maximizing their appeal.

I do agree with House Gnome about your idea 3. But I also would like to expand parties to include holiday themed parties. Like the week of Day of Memories would allow you to have a costume party, as an example.

I changed my mind after talking to my wife and she said I loved the My Time series.
So, I pledged the same amount back.

i played the 2 my time and the romance aspect have no interest for me so i would have prefered less romance and more zoo o whatever for the game

The goals are largely a result of votes by backers (they send us polls).

There are not enough romance related stretch goals in this game. This type of content is the most popular and most important content in these types of games and that is why there are a lot of romance related stretch goals.

I was gonna say, judging by their Discord engagement alone, people are super interested in the characters the most. I think thats because out of almost all of the cozy sim games I've played, My Time series puts a lot of focus on the narrative and the characters. I always loved how involved they are in the progression of the game's story and world.
