Please everyone go wish list something off this list or find a project to back, indies need your support more then ever right now so show the love.

[@Earthling247]

Well done keeping it a closed beta. You have the right idea. Game looks really nice as well.

[@TaylerBootz]

The only one I'm really excited for! Game looks great!

[@CritterCove]

Big love made my day with that!@@TaylerBootz

[@unwoundgames]

Thank you so much for including Echoes of the Plum Grove!! We're so excited to be launching this year! 💜

[@infernaldalek2851]

Art style inspired by Paper Mario?

[@komander98]

Your game looks awesome. I just wishlist it and I’m really exited to play it 🤍

[@robertjohnrjbliss1237]

The game looks amazing! Also wish-listing it. 😇

[@brattyx0836]

I can’t wait!! ❤

[@thehoxhaistbodhisattva7967]

Please port to Switch.

[@teenagecuriosity5664]

The color scheme of sunny side feels so new and unique. It's a lot different than the og bright and vibrant colors often used for farming sims. The blue hues feel a lot more soothing for some reason

[@katelynsewell3928]

Bandle Tale, Fields of Mistria and Chef RPG are my favorites from the list!!! ❤

[@kazirasostudio9660]

Same, can’t wait for their release 🔥

[@VioletAeonSnowfield]

The aesthetic of Echoes of Plum Grove is very pleasing with the Paper Mario vibes.

[@jaynielynn]

I was thinking the same thing! So so excited to see a game with that style!

[@hamzahgamedev]

I am so hyped for Chef RPG.!!! ❤❤ It is one of the main inspirations for me to create my very own open world farming

[@raywilliams866]

Mirthwood looks really exciting.

[@spiderlily723]

Honorable mention 1: The Palace On The Hill which has you work in a tea shop during vacation and seems to have some mysterious~ stuff~ going on, too, in prettiest 90s India you can find. It looks amazing and has a really cool demo out. Honorable mention 2: Grimshire where you'er a cute bunny moving into a new place and also fight spreading darkness. Looks adorable, though set for 25'.

[@yeoldstickinthemud9570]

Lightyear Frontier reminds me of the Netflix show, "Love, Death & Robots" season 1, episode 4 "Suits". In that, farmers use mechs to do farm work, but also combat aliens that invade their farm. That episode is one of my favorites of the show!

[@perfecto_01]

Beat me to it. My exact thoughts!

[@JohnnyKusiga]

Too many to look forward to, mainly excited for Chef RPG & Lightyear Frontier. Happy to learn about some I didn't know of from this video also.

[@Ninja40K]

I can't wait for Field of Mistria anymore.

[@smakies5331]

Im hyped for Myrthwood

[@annienunyabiz6627]

I really need some of these to come to Switch. My computer's so old and janky, I'm pretty sure it would set itself on fire if I so much as looked at the Steam pages for these. 😭

[@SharkyGamess]

Oh no!😅 I hope that doesn't happen! I think most of them will eventually get a switch release in the future!

[@davidnorman8631]

I believe Sunnyside is going to have a Switch port

[@JoshuaRWorkman]

Cozynauts, SunnySide, Fields of Mistria, and Bandle Tale are the ones I'm lookingn forward to.

[@xJeanica]

i need fields of mistria asap

[@Schrogs]

Mirthwood is the only one that captures my attention and it does look really interesting. I wonder how good the game will turn out to ve

[@victoriahewitt9938]

Same! Too many feel like Stardew Valley ripoffs & all sound the same. That one actually looked unique & interesting!

[@Schrogs]

@@victoriahewitt9938 exactly!

[@simsolyn]

New in my wishlist thanks to your video: Chef RPG and Mirthwood!

[@mrlene_ananas]

would love to play mirthwood, in fact, i put it on my wishlist immediatly.

[@Keeterism1]

Lots of great titles, but for me personally I’m only really looking forward to 1 and I’ve already wishlisted it before seeing this video. It’s Mirthwood, I have lots of cozy farm sims like Stardew, Coral, Roots of Pacha, Sun Haven, and Kynseed. So a more darker farm sim is a great contender and addition.

[@mikiriki9913]

I love the style of Farlands and how smooth everything looks and feels

[@tobiasnguyen2502]

Stardew Valley seriously raised the bar so high I felt difficult to buy and try new games, and with 1.6 update, I'm gonna be so occupied for at least a year

[@brattyx0836]

SOOO excited for - echoes of the plum grove (backed on kickstarter!!), chef rpg, sunnyside, pixelshire, & fields of mistria (i feel like they keep playing us w no release date by now 🙄) very intrigued by little-known galaxy, mirthwood & everholm

[@Snyper-if3kt]

I came across a dev-vlog from the creator of Wild's Edge a couple of weeks ago. There isn't much info on the game now other then it being 'almost done' and 'out soon', but what little was shown in that short video and the screens from the Steam page have got it onto my wishlist.

[@smaao]

I cant wait for these games to be released and then to see a review of each ❤. Ive been burned too many times so dont want to invest in all and will wait for full reviews. Thanks sharky for your work

[@infinitecurlie]

I'm SO excited for Little Known Galaxy 🥺. (Omg same for a new leaf memories, Sunnyside, fields of mistrial, and farlands 🥺).

[@TrisaPradnja]

My first time watching your recommendation. What a great list! I put most of them on my wishlist. Especially Echoes of Plum Groove which reminds me of World Neverland but with a more specific goal. Definitely going to save more money for these games. Thank you❤

[@fransmith3255]

I'm very surprised you missed "Of Life and Land" (formerly Circle of Kerzoven). It's pretty well known and it's reportedly coming out 2024. It would fit in with the "cozy' well.

[@TexMackerson]

Lightyear it's literally that Love Death & Robots episode but in a game

[@ziljin]

Lightyear Frontier looks like that Love Death and Robots episode with the mech farmers shooting up the bugs. Wish they could make that game instead! Farmer mecha farming sim survival defense FPS!

[@alexanders867]

Great list! Thank you for this compilation!! Looking forward for these releases

[@macb3741]

Imo fields of mistria and Everholm looks nice. I love the art style of the latter but idk if the farm-side is extensive. I just want a farm game, simple story, but the art style is really good.

[@starlight-os7lj]

thank you for covering this, sharky! so much anticipation for these games 🥰

[@kimdeuel]

I have a specific graphic style that I prefer so didn't care for most of these personally but I do have Lightyear Frontier and I'm looking forward to Farm Together 2 next month. Cozynauts might be right up my alley, so going to go wishlist that one right now. Thanks!

[@abrealgaming5649]

Just wish listed cozynauts and messaged the developers. Dude your channel is a godsend. ❤

[@dustmepink]

1:23 why does this give me Nintendo 64 paper Mario vibes ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love how this game looks I hope it’s coming either to iOS and or Switch

[@elevenchuck2446]

All those look really fun! I'm also excited for Emberville. Maybe not cozy enough... but looks awesome.

[@kopilkaiser8991]

Thank you so much for such an informative and useful video. I really wanted to know about some good upcoming games in farming category. You put it all in the right away. Kudos 🍻

[@veronicawilliamson8392]

Hi I love any farming games. Can't wait to try these!

[@Atomic-Lola]

Thanks for this list: I’ve added a lot to my steam wishlist!

[@NeedANewHobby7]

I am gonna go broke or I’m going to have to up my game budget. I want to play them all.

[@roberthiltz2741]

Thanks again for a fun video! I really wish there were more console games like most of these titles that are steam only as my wife and I are chomping at the bit for an immersive farm sim

[@squarestar326]

I keep seeing videos that say pixelshire is also coming on switch tho,no? And i think i heard a new leaf did come on switch and that it was really bad tho, but i can be wrong. Does anyone know if echoes of plum grove is coming on switch btw?

[@paulc2007]

Farm folks and the ranchers are a couple more games that are out this year hopefully check those out too

[@edd6297]

OMG Farlands looks so good

[@Kuya_Chino]

Thanks for this!

[@zharfanghafaragunawan2695]

Is there any online farm game that provides trading between the players ?

[@JockJutManhwaRecap]

mirthwood seems to be the only one worth wild to me

[@glazza]

sunkissed city looks great

[@thehoxhaistbodhisattva7967]

Such a shame that Nintendo seems to be making it intentionally difficult for devs to port these...

[@mbuckley3828]

How is Nintendo intentionally doing so?

[@thehoxhaistbodhisattva7967]

@@mbuckley3828 they seem to deny like 8 out of 10 dev kit requests without explanation.

[@mbuckley3828]

@@thehoxhaistbodhisattva7967 Has anyone of reputable social media influence reached out to Nintendo why that is? Only bringing up a reputable influencer here because hopefully Nintendo won't just ignore their inquiring why this is unlike them more than likely just blowing them off if the normal Joe Blow reaches out to them and asks this same question.

[@crhserenity]

Not all but most of these games are only available for windows. I have a Mac. The only game I can have up and running is Stardew Valley.

[@rhebbhulett]

Little known galaxy is pretty shameless. I’m still gonna play it. Stardew Valley in space? Sign me up.

[@AniDeMax]

SunnySide looks inspired by Persona 5

[@thatsnatss]

Echoes of Plum Grove have a nostalgic feel to it. Meanwhile, I'm super excited for Chef RPG I have been following the creator on KZbin Pixel Architect and his process during the creation of the game! (●'◡'●)

[@spacechimp5141]

I like all the 2d games listed here. thanks for the video.

[@Astronic]

Excited for bandle tale

[@Littles813]

Are these all PC only?

[@Earthling247]

Early access or games in beta and the like ruins the game. If this step is a necessary evil, it should be kept closed with a public embargo. Playing unfinished games early burns out the player base and destroys potential release hype. Finish the game, or nearly finish, then promote it and release it is proper procedure. Which other products sell in an unfinished state except maybe food?

[@WildMoonWitch]

Everything about Echoes of Plum Grove reminds me of Pumpkin Panic. The farm, crops, the dock......🤔🤔

[@Oddodyssey]

Great video! Found some new ones and saw some updates about ones we'd forgotten about. Love all the colourful pixel art ones the most.

[@amnavas1971]

I wish list 2 of the list, great ideas!

[@squarestar326]

Damn, pcs have all the good games...i cant wait till i saved enough money to get one.

Any news on story of season mobile version?

there will be a looot to do this year :'D

With all the people laid off at Riot, will Bandle Tale still happen?

[@d4r4butler74]

Thank you!

[@realtalk8350]

Cozy nauts is kinda good but i hope it's a phone friendly 🤷🤷

[@fatbrittalking5578]

why are there so many third person farming games I barely know any in first person or where first person is an option the only two I know of is like year from tear and staxel I’d like to see more

[@plageran]

how many will you be playing?

[@SharkyGamess]

I'll be trying all of them at least once for a video! But hoping a few stick with me afterwards and get me hooked!

[@toodler]

Will chef rpg coming to switch? I hope it’ll be in switch. So many npc walking around.

[@mari-arena]

Echoes reminds me of Scribblenauts somehow

[@SharkyGamess]

Never heard of that one before!

[@annienunyabiz6627]

@@SharkyGamess It's a series of puzzle games where you solve the puzzles in various ways by spawning items using whatever random noun and adjectives you can think of. For example, you could use a ladder to get a cat out of a tree, or you can spawn in a zombie beaver to chew the tree down.

[@Shinigami344]

So many farming sims in space

[@D0MiN0ChAn]

Even though I'm super stoked about Chef RPG, I do wish they would have reworked the character sprites slightly. The characters/people somehow look like they're from an entirely different game and don't really match the super detail pixel art of the environment & buildings, imho. But it's early access, so maybe things will still change. If not, here's to hoping we'll be able to mod somewhere down the line after full release.

[@rlatiola]

I can't wait to play any of them but I'm most excited for the space games. I've been playing One Lonely Outpost and love farming and exploring another planet.

[@luise3188]

I hope they all become great games, but I feel like they're overexploiting the "Stardew Valley" resource, the art style and techniques, the 2D graphics. I mean, they can be great games, but they can also saturate a niche that isn't that big. My dream is to see something in the middle of "Stardew Valley" and Farming Simulator, that goes deeper into the reproduction of animals, to be able to have many breeds of many species of farm animals with graphics that are a little more "realistic" but without reaching be an FM 22, with the same quality of stories that have been told until now in this type of games, because they are very good. Anyway, I hope it arrives one day.

[@lanceh.2286]

Now i see the main reason Graveyard keeper being somewhat rushed and unpolished combat, monsters, dungeon, the what the hell should i be doing part and story(lots more in steam reviews) its because of Bandle Tale. Hope the latter wont get the same treatment. That being said, gonna wishlist Chef Rpg, Eastward, Mirthwood, Everholm, and especially Pixelshire.

[@EziosBladez]

And most of them are single player only -_-

chucklefish is still around? i thought they folded after what happened with them. sorry but i will stay away from anything they are attached to. if you dont know go look it up. almost as bad as how the devs from the day after treated their employees.

[@Qilemonade]

Whoa What happened?

[@zerodawn09]

@@Qilemonade they lied, they stole, they didnt pay their devs as in at all. they were the ones working with concernedape (stardew valley) with their multiplayer and when this dropped concernedape dropped them. we dont know if it was just this or if he knew more cause hes gave a brief statement like he knew more and dropped them. they worked with a few games at the time so we dont know how deep it went just that everyone involved with them dropped them fast. thats why i thought they were done but it looks like they are still around.

[@d4r4butler74]

@@zerodawn09 But there was not a lawsuit, just a bunch of social media posts - from both sides - with no evidence presented... And we will probably never really hear what was truly promised and what was truly delivered by either side. ConcernedApe is well clear of it, so that is good. Chucklefish was only ever a publisher for Stardew, not involved with it's development.

[@zerodawn09]

@@d4r4butler74 i didnt say they help made it. i said they were helping him make the multiplayer side. also so there has to be a lawsuite for it to be real? so how about the people from the day before? theres no lawsuite there? the fact anyone involved with them dropped them and other than the first statement says they wont talk about it says alot to me. chucklefish's statment on what happens read badly to me also.. chucklefish also has dropped their game starbound and wont finish it. another red flag. no i will not trust that company. oh and using underage people is just nasty on any level.
