No plans just yet. Our primary focus for now is continuing to build the Kynseed engine and to flesh out the game's core mechanics. So we're taking it one step at a time right now.
We're using MonoGame for the engine's framework with nearly every line of code being written by our programmer, Neal (has worked as a scripter, coder, and tools creator for nearly every Fable over the course of 12 years at Lionhead).
Was there any reasoning behind using monogame? Or is it more of a "Used it before and know how it works?" Just curious :') I've been using unity but considering moving over to something a little more 2D friendly, as although the support is alot better now, it still feels like gamemaker still has a better toolset for it.
Yeah, our hero is a rather unique looking fellow right now. Art is going to be getting a lot of attention as we work on the game. Many things (such as character art) are placeholder as we work on some of the game's core mechanics.
@PixelCount feel free to re-do all the sprites... ;) colors are off on somethings. considering you alls backgrounds I'm sure you know.. but, figured i'd point it out.
Cheers, appreciate the feedback. Our hope is that if we secure funding on Kickstarter we'll be able to revamp all the art/sprites being used in the game.
Personally I rather like the design choice for the sprites! Feels very original compared to other games of this genre ^^ I do feel like some of the backgrounds look a bit 'scattered' if that makes sense, and perhaps the colors are a little too saturated, but I understand since it's a very early prototype. Excited to see more!
I got really enthusiastic when the Kickstarter for this game was announced. I'm an absolute Fable nut (to an embarrassing extend) and when I heard the first bit of soundtrack for this it sent chills down my spine :0 Very happy to see a game with this unique kind of atmosphere again even after Lionhead shut down. Really rooting for these guys! (with my money)
I'm so excited for this to become a fully fledged game, it looks like so much fun. Definitely my type of game and there aren't that many like this out there.
There's a game being made that's gonna be abit like harvest moon it's called Elin. It's a sequel to Elona and I think you'll like both! It's got some absurd stuff that you can do hehe.
There are. There is of course the 26 games in the original Harvest Moon series (now called Story of Seasons) with another on the way. The two Shepard's Crossing games. Then there is World's Dawn. And on the more combat oriented side, the six games of the Rune Factory series. Then you have games in development such as Besides Story (made by the person that made World's Dawn), Orange Season, Re: Legend, and as Nazaras stated, Garden of Elin (made by the creator of Elona set in the same world).
i was talking to pixel count lol, unless you were trying to answer for them? Im sure there's a joke or something in there that im missing because im an idiot rofl
Hooking items is kinda weird compared to getting fish since you have to land on the object directly when you cast the first time. Just dragging the hook over it doesn't work.
This seems like it has potential. I definitely love the puns and references. I know it's a prototype, but hopefully the full version has a better tutorial and cleans up the apparent clunkiness of the interface/controls.
That guy's got arms for days. Can't say this looks like it's very good, but then again, it's an early prototype and all that. Stardew Valley looked pretty rough in its early days too.
I really enjoy your content a lot keep doing what your doing 😄 I can tell it takes a lot of time, if you should get around to it you should try Cities Skylines its pretty awesome
You think this game as potential to be great just like Stardew Valley? it seems a little clunky at this early stage (i know the video was 1 year ago but still i never seen it :))
This game was so dizzying, background moving with character* I wish it had a solid/stable background, would of Loved to have played it, I’m even feeling it with your video -.-
troll under the bridge? you mean Pam?
A little part of me is glad that DF doesn't rule the world.
So is the rest of the world
I guess it is the part that has a bit of empathy left... the rest just wants to watch the world burn. like all of us :)
Part of me wants him to.
Super Happy and i just got SD
Kynseed, you are not ready for DangerouslyFunny.
They may have made it just for me
I feel like you should play GTA V to kill prostitutes with a baseball bat then take a selfie with the dead hooker in the game.
you need jesus
Bethanie steph thats gruesome
Bethanie steph You need help......
Thanks for playing, DF! Looking forward to seeing what havoc you wreak as we add more to the game. No pig is safe.
PixelCount Studios do you plan on a physical release?
No plans just yet. Our primary focus for now is continuing to build the Kynseed engine and to flesh out the game's core mechanics. So we're taking it one step at a time right now.
PixelCount Studios As a fellow dev, I'm curious as to what you made this in? is it your own engine?

so are you gonna ruin all of the npc's lives in this game too?
The fun thing is, in this game, they remember.. for generations!
*evil laugh intensifies*
DangerouslyFunny
Oh this is gonna be fun, I can already tell.
the main person looks like Pam but not a trash can
Pam IS a trash can
Ccbythesea ! so then nothing like Pam?
What's the difference?
Alestiiidae [no_last] don't know
Exactly lol
Last time i was this late i later had a kid.
Good thing i sacrificed him...
I cant go to brazil anymore now...
Wait, what?
What?
Right
Oh my god
I dont get it...
"I do hope that [I can hook] animals and children"
That's my new favorite quote.
Gameplay looks fun but the pixel art for the characters looks very weird. I don't have good grammar...
Yeah, our hero is a rather unique looking fellow right now. Art is going to be getting a lot of attention as we work on the game. Many things (such as character art) are placeholder as we work on some of the game's core mechanics.

Suzanne Hudson yeah that and the animation for walking in the legs looks weird when walking to the side.
I'm feeling crappy but getting a notification about this video already made me feel a little better :') thank you so much for making these!
:)
flexi do YOU have a life
"-Social Interaction" know that isn't gonna happen with you behind the screen. 😂😂
DF makes fire with carrot then forgets to put it out with the watering can. bye village, no more game. DF broke it.
"Everyone loves paying with their balls..." Hahaha
Felipe Ferreira I especially like to play with yours *pretend a Lenny face is here because I don't feel copy and pasting one here*
:^)
Felipe Ferreira wanna play with mine.......
Thanks bro, but I don't really want to do that
Felipe Ferreira how come?
"This game looks cool" *gets to the pigs inflating* "Wait, what?"

Wow, for once TH-cam has recommended a video I actually liked by someone I've haven't seen before. I wish this happened more often.
I'm so excited for this to become a fully fledged game, it looks like so much fun. Definitely my type of game and there aren't that many like this out there.
Those puns give me life. I am VERY excited to get my hands on this when it gets released
I think once a few of the mechanics are tweaked a little bit and the game is explained a little more it'll be pretty fun
Well, DF, gonna revisit Kynseed now that it's at 1.0 release? :P
Harvest Moon the IIIrd? I never thought it could happen!
I wish there were more like this out there
There's a game being made that's gonna be abit like harvest moon it's called Elin. It's a sequel to Elona and I think you'll like both! It's got some absurd stuff that you can do hehe.

Your humor never fails to make me feel better
I have to say. You blowing up the pigs is the best.
That was my favorite part too!
Wanna be my best friend now? XD
Elizabeth Snyder I do.
Definitely backing these guys. Thanks for showing us, DF! 💕
HELL YEA, I'm sure you didn't see me say "you should check out Kynseed" but I don't care. I'm just glad you found this game.
I've never been so early to something in my life.
You picked a good event!
🍪 Oh Kynseed, you aren't ready for what DF is going to do to you and your characters. 🍪
I want a list of all the references. Also the dry humor is top notch today. Bravo.
I love you in an entirely creepy way DF. lol
Stardew Valley is still my Jam! But I'll probably maybe, who knows, ... Give this a try
Would be happy for you to give it a try! (Though it's very early days for our prototype so everything's a bit rough around the edges for now.)
Pixel count, do you mind if i give a recommendation? Im sure as a developer you would be happy.
i was talking to pixel count lol, unless you were trying to answer for them? Im sure there's a joke or something in there that im missing because im an idiot rofl
GD Shade Oh lol My fault.
Its okay lol, i dont even think they will respond anyways :(
I'm loving the variety of games you're playing
I just love the art style of this game, the details are insane. If I didn't know any better, I'd say this looks as promissing as Terraria:Otherworld
The second DF found a slingshot I immediately knew what he was going to do
Gotta try stuff...
This game looks pretty interesting. Also I think you collect the money from the bag on the nightstand in your room.
I love your videos, keep up the good work
your commentary is hilarious. keep up the good work :D
tell me DF--what do you think of the kickstart program. It looks like a really fun game but I do have questions.
6 happy feelings and 28 sad feelings HAHAHA seems about right for one of your playthroughs
Hey DF ! First time commenting on your videos... :)
First time replying to your comment!
this game is very pretty and looks promising.. can't wait til it comes out
i am eagerly looking forward this game looks amazing. keep up the good work
I love his voice and pronunciation! So calming...
Too early to play this game yet, but seems like a lovely little adventure!
"generated 6 happy and 28 sad feelings" now picture that on Stardew Valley.
This game was made for you.
Seems like it
"gimme my fish back. i'm going to bed."
i can relate somehow
I'm in! Hope this makes its goal!
Thanks, us too!
love your vids and humor keep it up
Hooking items is kinda weird compared to getting fish since you have to land on the object directly when you cast the first time. Just dragging the hook over it doesn't work.
Dunno how you feel about resource management games but I'd think it would be fun to see you play Block'Hood.
I feel like I like this game, though to be honest, that's probably just because anything involving you seems like a blast 😍
will there be a livestream?
I don't think so yet of this one
I'm so psyched!
:)
This game looks like a classic SNES JRPG, this is awesome.
[I know I'm very late but] this game one-upped Stardew Valley by including the one bathroom/outhouse
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, fish a man... hmm... apparently I haven't given this much thought.
Yay, I'm early hi DF. I love your videos!
Hiiii and thanks
This seems like it has potential. I definitely love the puns and references. I know it's a prototype, but hopefully the full version has a better tutorial and cleans up the apparent clunkiness of the interface/controls.
absolutely will :-)
"Not very well, because you died." Absolute savage.
Did you get a new microphone? It's sounds better than before.
Your voice is just.......amazing!
the character looks like an adorable scarecrow
Damn, I can't believe he blew up his pigs lol!
>mother's milk pudding
oh
From the website - Will your name be carved on the walls of history or scrawled on the walls of the pub outhouse? ... You have a goal, young man!
My favorite calm and sweet psychopath 🍃
Did you not hold shift? You move sooooo slow
Hey DF Harvest Moon: Light of Hope is coming to Steam will you play it when it comes out c:
Oh god the pigs part was too brutal lol
Nice! Very very very nice!
yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey DF, can you use a controller with this one?
atomictoxicity yes and it is recommended :)
Okay cool, thank you!
I'm not feeling this game juuuust yet. I think I love Stardew Valley way too much, that's probably why. Nice to see you doing new videos, though. ^^
That guy's got arms for days. Can't say this looks like it's very good, but then again, it's an early prototype and all that. Stardew Valley looked pretty rough in its early days too.
It was all serious until I seen "everyone loves playing with their balls"
The art with the trees and such seems difficult to navigate at places but otherwise looks fun
we will do a clarity of navigation pass later, plus we need to make your outline visible behind the new trees we put in, which will help :-)
Apparently harvest moon 2 is going to be a thing at some point in the not too distant future, too!
This game looks like it has potential but the UI really needs some re-work.
AvoxPaine It is a prototype with placeholder UI :)
I figured as much.
I really enjoy your content a lot keep doing what your doing 😄 I can tell it takes a lot of time, if you should get around to it you should try Cities Skylines its pretty awesome
hay sleeping Pam, wake up I want to play with you.
How you get it to look like this? This a mod or something?
I love watching DF videos. :)
You think this game as potential to be great just like Stardew Valley? it seems a little clunky at this early stage (i know the video was 1 year ago but still i never seen it :))
I read "Pork" as "Porn" and was very confused.
Maybe this is the prequel to Stardew Valley (you're the grandpa that died in the beginning)
Dog says woof woof, so u need to sig...
This game was so dizzying, background moving with character* I wish it had a solid/stable background, would of Loved to have played it, I’m even feeling it with your video -.-
A stardew valley where you can kill stuff? Oh DF is gonna have fun here…
A Stardew where you can also use laxatives on monsters, collect their poo in buckets and use it to grow better plants.
First video I watched on my phone.
I don't like watching videos on my phone, it turns out.
nostalgic visuals
Saw this a week ago and went total fan girl!!! Watching this one very closely to see how it turns out!!
Interesting, DF posted 36 seconds ago.
d
these puns are killing me
I found my freedom on Blueberry Hill.
there is a Pam under the bridge. now we need to find Pam cos she is hiding. found Pam because she was gasie.
might be a good game when nearly done.
woof woof = your dog found an item, dig here
I wonder if DF has any pets irl.
Hopefully he would feed those ones
it's so gorgeous omg???
00:00 you're pam
This would have been more hilarious if it really was the Stardew Valley dev playing the game :P
Df should never run for office, he'll kill us all. Anyway game looks promising but I don't know if it'll beat Stardew Valley
Guys, support Kenseed's kickstarter.
