What do you do after running away from the big city to start a new life in the country? You run away from the country to start a new life in the big city, obviously. Arthur “Mr. Podunkian” Lee - a former contributor to ConcernedApe’s genre-defining farmalotStardew Valley- has announcedSunkissed City, a lifesimulationgame set in a delightful coastal burb that’s reportedly “pumping with funky vibes and quirky characters”, together with migraines, stretches of dead water and horrible sewer monsters.
Teased last year, and now officially titled with a Q4 2024 release date, the game casts you as a new starter or “Peco Pioneer” for the friendly Pico corporation. You responsibilities include “fostering a relationship with Apollo’s vibrant community and putting in a good word for Pico’s new eco-focused initiative”. Is there some kind of connection between this eco-focused initiative and the aforesaid ecological/monster-based calamities? Please - I am a journalist, it would be unprofessional of me to speculate.
