First entry on Kiyu Finds page! I wanted a space to share stores,
games, or places that I find that I want to share. For the first
entry we're going with some games I've found that I'm going to try
out.
Hokko Life!
"Hop off the train and into your new life in the village of Hokko!
Take over the old workshop and get creative; use crafted materials
and design everything in town! With complete creative freedom,
what type of town will you build?"
From their steam page. I'll be honest I've vaguely seen it around cozy sites but the banner looks a little generic and I thought that it would be another Animal Crossing clone. Which isn't necessarily bad but aesthetically I feel like too many people try to copy that kind of style and don't really hit the mark. Usually what happens is that for some reason they don't want to copy the proportions exactly so the models end up looking odd or in-between two styles which is really unappealing and tends to turn me off from a game personally. HOWEVER this screenshot in particular shows to me a couple things, the player models can be cute or customized to be cute, the furniture is cute and the freedom you can place items. So it's one I'll be checking out in full soon.
