if the offer expires at launch (may 30), surely it's a pre-launch discount or pre-order. refunds should still work but let's call it what it is. though I understand gog has major issues with the meaning of words.

and try out what? the demo on steam that's not available here?

edit: actually, pre-ordering fools can try the game now, but again, I only found out about that on the steam store page, not your half-assed, uninformative announcement. and I'm sure the demo will get removed after release anyway because that's very consumer-friendly (and at least something gog can't be blamed for).

Hope to see some decent reviews out. I'm concerned about how "do minigame to complete task" it is, based on what I've seen in the screenshots/videos attached to the storecard.

fool right here. angry fool to boot. they went the "exclusive platform"-dlc way, and gog only gets the onesie whilst steam (have both, so call me imbecile fool) has two more items.

dedicated thread here too;

gog .com/forum/everdream_valley/preorder_contentdlc


yes, i grabbed gollum - precious edition to boot- (knowing full well it will be an unmitigated disaster/flop and trash) this one twice, and whatever i want. i am a "collector", a gamer, a philosopher and many more things. that's my life and how i do. so no, no "regrets" or refunds, just stating facts. and yes, i guess in many ways i am "blessed" being able to do what i do.

This looks lovely. Any chance of a native Linux version being made available down the road?

Is this Onesie designed by Ewa ? ^

Yes, Steam gets more content, as always. They get a onesie, a T-shirt and a sheep shelter. GOG only gets a onesie. Apparently developers did not know that GOG supports pre-ordering and pre-order bonus DLC. I asked them to release that content as a paid DLC at least... GOG should never have to miss out on content. Why are you afraid to post an uncut link, to a GOG site no less?

Generous. Moon Eaters... "A Filipino indie multimedia and game development group named for the moon eating dragon of Philippin" I`ve heard that the moon is made of cheese. Farm on the moon! a sequel... stop it! you always act like an idiot the first-moment girl says smth to you...no! It`s just... I never know if I`m good enough... when my colleagues flirted with the number of girls I ...played video games... I blush when you talk to me Sysia. Hope for a good game, day on the farm. : )

hint : someone else's opinion about a game is not necessarily yours, the first rule of real players.

Since I had the long weekend and no other games I wanted to start at the moment, I decided to try it.

It's not too bad. Some good stuff. Progression is a bit gated, but not in terribly bad ways. The art/sound/music is all good, and the vibe definitely is comforting/relaxing. It does what it says on the tin. It has plenty of positive going for it. The pacing is great. It allows save anytime, and your stamina always refreshes any time you stop doing things. Taking damage (bee sting, goose fight) permanently reduce your maximum stamina a goodly amount; eating things permanently increases your maximum stamina (by the tiniest bit). You can get a wound that makes your stamina not regenerate until you use a bandage.

A few bits of negatives:
* Minigames: So far there's cow-milking mini game, sheep shearing mini-game, and cooking mini-games. Cow milking, ok, sure. I only have one cow so far and it's only once every 3-in-game-days. It's not the worst, but it's not additive to the experience. Sheep shearing is just annoying. Again, not hard in any way, just annoying (especially with the teensiest load screen in and out of it). Fortunately, I see there are "auto-clippers" to buy that purport to skip it. Cooking, it's just terrible. It's a rhythm-game-ish thing of moving the pan left/right/up/down for an amount of time as prompts on the screen show. "harder" recipes require more precision to do. It doesn't have a failure state, but you sure could get stuck not succeeding for a long time.
EDIT: Forgot there's also the board sawing mini-game...
* One more mini-game I've only seen once so far: "while the kid sleeps, you become the dog and have to chase away the wolves so they don't steal sheep". REALLY obnoxious mini-game. Less because of it itself (I really hope it doesn't repeat much), but because the wolves just run through and destroy your fences. Leading to you having to rebuild all the fences the next day. Meaning you then have to catch all of your animals back into their pens the next day.
* A lot of the "clothing unlocked!" things (like finding hidden treasures in the world or completing quests) don't give them to you but instead unlock them at the merchant then to buy. Just a feelsbad moment after a feelsgood of a new unlock.
* Your dog and cat lose training over time. At an alarming rate. You have to play fetch/taunt every day to keep it full. (Or, I'm just letting it go down and then refilling it in batch when I need them again.)

The game is at least as much about exploring the world/finding things in it as it is about the daily chores and developing the farm. Which, since I'm an "exploration" archetype gamer in many ways, hits good for me.

Devs, if you peek in and want a top thing to prioritize for enhancement: allow the crafting stations (next to the barn and the cooking stall) take from the storage box inventory and not just carried inventory.

EDIT:
The wolf one appears to have been one-time story. Phew. There was another "overnight dream minigame" where you basically play "Snake"/"Nibbles" with ducks on a pond (that was pretty straightforward).

EDIT2:
I, uh, appear to have reached a soft-lock. I jumped/fell into an area while exploring and there appears to be no way out of it. Hopefully the wolves overnight catch me and send me back to spawn. Nope. Emailing the developers.

What on earth are you talking about?

Truth in happy words.
Moon Eaters are the Developer of the game as Sysia mentioned, they designed the cozy onesie : )
The description comes from their page.
I heard that Moon is made of cheese and cheesemonsters are living there milking moon cows, it's from the book "Charlie and a Cheesemonster"
I blush as mentioned and only believe opinions about a game once I tried a game otherwise I wouldn't try half of the games played with fun.
Do you take opinions about a game before you try or do you try a game anyway?

edit: trimmed : )

HyperX DLC for Everdream Valley!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

further gog discrimination by these greedy devs;

steamcommunity. com/app/1403650/eventcomments/3842179619560850497/ .
.

even there (steam forums) it's a mess. the hoi polloi are angry, rightly so. it's one of those "jump through several social media hoops" to get a steam key "event". vile, nasty business. and of course gog users can't get gog keys, even though technically, it would be possible. again, putting aside many would not do the chores anyway.

I'm starting to regret buying this...

Either the "first 2 actions" or "more actions" have turned out to be "post an ad for us on Twitter". Unclear whether that's revealed before the sign-up, but given how the developer has just called them "actions" I'd guess not.

I hear Twitter's current response (to all inquiries) is to respond with a poop emoji, which sounds appropriate to this.

Edit: the current 1-star review from 1vanK apparently just translates as "Russian add", and the single-word body of it is "Subject". So I won't blame GOG for deleting that one.
