Hello! Are you in need of extra ideas / Game features? I'd be happy to help, Contact me if you are interested.

Have you ever wondered what happens to an abandoned video game? All those NPCs with their artificial lives... what happens to their world after the game is powered off for that final time?

Village Monsters is an relaxing village life game set in one such world.

WHAT'S ALL THIS?

My name is Josh, and I'm making Village Monsters, a life sim game in the style of Animal Crossing, with visual & tonal inspiration from the Mother series.

WHAT CAN YOU DO IN IT?

Village Monsters is an open-ended village life game set in the world of a long-forgotten video game. You play as a human living in a community of (mostly) friendly monsters

Live a different kind of life in a different kind of world

  • Befriend dozens of whimsical monster villagers, each with their own quirky personalities, interests, and problems to solve.

  • Engage in a variety of daily tasks and activities like earning money with a part time job, joining in village events and holidays, going on adventures - or just hanging out with your monster pals and watching some TV.

  • Buy a fixer-upper and sink your entire life savings into it to make it your very own comfy-cozy homestead.

  • Pursue many interesting hobbies that let you hunt for treasure, collect and train creatures, cultivate mushroom gardens, and catch legendary fish.

  • Unravel unique personal stories as you build friendships and learn the history (and secrets) of the village and its inhabitants.

  • Explore vast and strange areas outside the village ranging from vibrant forests, arctic deserts, fog-choked valleys, and the ruins of a best-forgotten empire.

  • Immerse yourself in a truly simulated world that boasts shifting weather patterns, sweeping seasonal changes, and interesting system interactions.

  • Harness the glitches of a run-down game and use them to empower your skills and fix this neglected world.

WHEN AND WHERE IS IT RELEASING?

Village Monsters is releasing to PC / Mac / Linux in Fall 2019

HOW CAN I FOLLOW DEVELOPMENT?

I'm very active on Twitter, so if that's your thing too then I'd love to have you follow along.

There's also email ([email protected]). Beyond that, there's lot of other choices!

Finally, if you think about it there's really just a finite number of humans out there, so if we both talk to enough of them then we'll eventually find each other. I look forward to seeing you!

I’m trying something a little different with today’s dev diary. Instead of featuring things I’ve added or improved I’ll be talking about things I’ve removed. It's Spring Cleaning time!

Check out this absolutely beautiful piece of art created for Village Monsters by @breakfastbat!

For the first time since I started development I finally have some branding I'm super proud of :3

It's time for another dev diary on the wonderful world of Village Monsters development. Have you ever eaten a clock before? It's very time consuming!

A new feedback release is now available. As with all feedback releases, this one is based on the latest demo and contains fixes and improvements based on your feedback!

Villagers! A new demo is now available and it's free for everyone!

It's a substantial release and I'm real proud of it. Check out the release notes to see what's new and go play it!

There’s no way to actually prove this, but I’m pretty sure more people have played fishing mini-games than have actually gone fishing.

So as you can imagine, Village Monsters has one too! Let's take a look at how it works.

In this week's Building a Village, we dive deep into the dirt and take a look at some mushroom gardening.
