Oof, somehow I guessed that Pixelshire was going to be a whole disaster...Looking at the Steam Page there are so many negative reviews, they had said Pixelshire was going to skip early access and be 1.0. However, an early access looking build was deployed, with only Summer and Winter as seasons! I watched some release day videos too...Yikes is what I found.

They really missed the mark, as the controls are weirdly broken, quest structure is peculiar, tools break and can only be bought from NPCs. It's my hope they can turn this around with their ambitious patching plan. However, I'm not certain based on this sample of game that has been in dev for years.

I feel games that Merge Games Franchises touches turns to shit; they were the company behind shutting down SunnySide console development, so that game is forever in a buggy state and on sale.

Aftabi Games (Formerly Rainy Games) was deeply disappointed about the situation and acknowledged their own shortcomings with developing their first game. Merge Games gave up on SunnySide on console way too early, enough to make Aftabi Games split from that company. SunnySide could've been something better with a bit more investment and manpower. Sometimes, big game publishers really fuck up.
