A Little Shop in Squirrel Town

Cute little game and it's not a bad way to spend a few hours. However unfortunately I can't recommend it as the dev seems to have abandoned it (complete silence and no updates for 15 months now). It does have promise, but it could definitely use some polish. The English translations are terrible though understandable, but I'm sure some players including myself wouldn't have minded helping the dev with improving them before a potential full release. Storage and inventory management is a bit annoying since stack sizes are too small (For instance gems don't stack at all) and chests only have 4 slots, so you end up with so many more chests than what is reasonable for storing so few things. Generally the game just needs more content - more options for upgrading your shop, upgrading storages, maybe some armorstands to display clothing and armor and over all more to do. It took me about 7 hours to play through the entire game and getting all the achievements, so a bit more content and some polish would have made the full price worth it. Currently you can farm, forage, fish, cook and craft, fight your way through the 50 levels of the forest dungeon and collect monster and animal cubs to put in a pasture to produce resources for you. The different features are unlocked as you progress through the first 1-2 weeks of the game and after that you unlock more armor and cooking recipes by progressing in the dungeon. The combat isn't hard - just basic melee and roll to avoid enemies, but you do need to craft the different armor and weapon upgrades to survive the entire way through. Might be one for farm sim collectors to pick up at a discount - just don't expect a super polished game. I didn't encounter any bugs at all though.

It tries to be like Littletown, Stardew Valley, and Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale, but just isn't there yet. There are better games on the market right now that scratch this itch, but I will revisit once it leaves EA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeNX2ImFR6c --- Dev Response: "SuperluminalCat [developer] Posted: Jan 15 @ 12:48pm I think it is very irresponsible to reach a conclusion within 0.9 hours. You did not make any suggestions, but simply denied my efforts." If you think the game is not well done, you can suggest it, and I will improve it in the future." --- My Response: I don't need to look at a glass of water for 5 hours to know that it's a glass of water. Comparatively, this game is not up to snuff yet with other games like it on the market. Anyone playing for five minutes will see that. I did actually make suggestions, if you can get past your pride and watch the video I linked.

Entered to check it out and I was hooked. I was like, just one more game day, just one more. And I need more now :) Its fun and easy to understand. Buy materials to sell, plant produce, cook and then you discover fishing. Its one of the few games where I liked the fishing. I am exited to see what else the game has to offer.

[h1] 为什么松鼠镇我却没看到松鼠，连个松果都没有。 [/h1] [h1] 为什么我开了间杂货铺，居民却给我起了个外号叫卖鱼强 [/h1] [b] 前期：三（卖） 个（水） 和（大） 尚（师） [/b] 讲真0成本2利润的水滴我卖爆好吧- =，何苦去农作物店里9块钱买入11块卖出呢，这不和卖水利润一样嘛，卖水翁和当倒爷收入一样你在逗我！讲真蛮不科学的，希望能把前期萌新起手的物价平衡弄好，不然稍显简陋的画面+前期东西少赚钱难真的蛮劝退的。。 [b] 中期：捕（黄） 鱼（金） 达（矿） 人（工）[/b] 答应我赚够几百块钱就马上给我买鱼竿好吗，有富裕钱了马上把鱼竿升级到三级好吗！！！前期卖水卖吐了看到利润20+的鱼简直老泪纵横，马上翻了十倍收入 真真的是质的改变。后面所有需要钱的地方全都是老渔民一条条钓上的鱼鱼换的！！！ [b] 后期：傲 之 追 猎 者 [/b] 没啥可说的 就是干就完了嗷 ，后期所有矿物、皮毛等必须产物都是靠打打杀杀赚来的，冲吧干翻他们！！不过里面魔物真的还蛮给我惊喜的= =，因为本身这游戏人物画风、建筑物、场景都不咋地，但是魔物倒还有模有样的，食物图标也是很精致，感觉有种水平参差不齐的感觉，希望后期改进画风 能给人一种统一的感觉吧。。 总体来说还是有可玩性的，是一个流程清晰内容中等的模拟经营游戏，上升空间很大，意味着有诸多不足，比如：游戏操作有点迷惑，背包、人物属性栏没有任何快捷键，平时造东西又是鼠标又是键盘，翻滚只能左右平移。。本能按esc以为可以关闭背包窗口却直接蹦出了游戏设置 。 人物以及房屋本身缺少更精美且种类繁多的装饰和家具，杂货铺外无法进行沙盒建造，与npc对话没有互动性等等等等【只能说，没有对比就么有伤害quq~】 希望在以后的更新中能更加完善，做得更好~

I received this game through Keymailer. I couldn't even continue playing, the English translations were awful. I've never seen such poor grammar in a game. It has a cute idea, but this game is not at all worth it. I got this game and I made it less than an hour. There is no real explanation to the game, it's trying to blend in so many different things but just looks mismatched and out of place. I will be immediately uninstalling, there is very little they could do to fix this initial impression of the game. There is so much that needs to be fixed.

今後の期待をこめてのおすすめです。 いわゆる牧場経営系ゲーム。なので、こういうゲームが好きな人はやることは説明等見なくても分かるのではないかと。 面白い部分も同様に説明不要かと。 ただ、現時点では体験版くらいのボリュームだと思うので、あまりにも期待し過ぎると肩透かしをくらうかもです。 ボリュームや現時点でのいまいちな部分はこれから改善されると思うので、そういう期待を込めてのオススメです。 【改善して欲しい点】 ・朝→昼→夜の時間の変化を分かりやすくして欲しい。 →今はずっと明るい（昼）の状態なのでせめて夕方→夜の変化が欲しい。 ・荷物がすぐ一杯になるのに倉庫用アイテムの収納が4つまでしかなく、置ける場所が限られているので店というより物置になってしまう。 →倉庫系アイテムの容量を増やすか、寝室方面に置けるようにして欲しい。 ・明らかにモチーフがわかる他社版権アイテムっぽいグラフィック（大丈夫なのかな？）や素材集とかから使ったのかな？というくらいアイテムのテイストが統一されていない。 →テイストを統一して欲しい。ドット絵は可愛いと思うので、デフォルメ強い方が嬉しいけどこの辺は好みかなぁ。 ・日本語訳がかなりエキサイトしている（これは他の海外ゲームでもよくあることなので、steamのゲームに慣れている方ならそんなに気にならないかも） →出来ればもう少し日本語っぽい日本語になれば嬉しいけれど、日本語への翻訳はものすごく難しいので対応してもらえるだけで感謝。

Fun and easy crafting game. No stress related to hunger and stuff. Wish the look and feel was a little better. If you wanted to be a shopkeep, this game is for you. Craft, Cook food items for better margins. Pretty good game.

Its a sweet little game. You can grow/collect/buy items and sell it. The artstyle is very sweet. I realy like it. Best things: 1) The devs answer very quick and improve the game asap. 2) The price of the game is realy low if you think about all the work it takes to make such a game. Gabb the games as long as you can get it so cheap! :)

一个简单又短的游戏，不知为什么玩了好几遍，给我一段悠闲又轻松的生活。 如果文字方面用心些，应该还是不错的。
