Speaking on relationship building in SunnySide, studio co-founder Sydney Stockdale said “There are about 30 named NPCs, and 24 of those are potential romance options.Every named NPCs has a personality type, likes, dislikes, preferred activities, schedules, jobs, routines, families, back stories, and some will even have specific dating preferences” she continued.  “Players will be offered a wealth of options to customize their experience throughout the game, but the relationship system provides tons of unique characters, stories, and perspectives.”

Modernize your farming experience with new technology that brings the classic farming sim genre to the 21st century. Build solar panels, electric water pumps, irrigation systems and more! That means you'll have plenty of time every day to go hang out with your friends in town. 

With a focus on individuality, you will be provided with unique opportunities that allow for creative freedom and self-expression.  

Your avatar, homestead, and even your in-game cell phone can all be tailored to your preferences and desires. Place your home and customize your farm layout however you want! There are plenty of decorations, clothing styles, and hair options to enjoy on your journey of self-discovery. 

While a quiet life in the countryside is nice, not everything in SunnySide is perfect. The locals have distinct personalities and stories, and everyone seems to be working through some kind of issue in their lives.  

Befriend the locals, support the town economy, and decide what kind of neighbor you want to be.

Your avatar, homestead, and even your in-game cell phone can all be tailored to your preferences and desires. Customize buildings, layouts, decorations, clothing, hair, and more on your journey of self- discovery.

A proper homestead is self-sufficient, and your home in SunnySide is no different. Learn to collect your own water, generate power, grow and craft various food items, and cultivate your land to help support the local economy.

At launch, you’ll be able to ferment your own soy sauce, slice tofu, grow and grind flour at the local mill, and craft artisan cheeses. The real magic of food, however, is what happens in the kitchen. Take produce a step further by cooking a wide variety of dishes in a kitchen you’ll be able to design and upgrade yourself. Nothing satisfies hunger like a home cooked meal after a long day’s work. While a quiet life in the countryside is nice, life in SunnySide isn’t perfect. The locals have distinct personalities, stories, and issues which - through your decisions - can be uncovered. SunnySide has spent the last decade on a steady decline, but perhaps you’ll be the one to breathe new life into this desolate town.

Form bonds, join groups, attend events, and maybe even find someone special to share your days with.
