Independent developer Robert Tatnell announced Hokko Life, "a cozy, creative community simulation game." The game will appear in until the end of 2020.
Similar to the Nintendo console-exclusive Animal Crossing series, Hokko Life will offer relaxed gameplay, interacting with anthropomorphic animals, and mundane rural activities like catching fish and bugs.
A distinctive feature of Hokko Life Tatnell calls the emphasis on that very creativity - players will be able to individualize furniture and interior items, as well as think over the design of their own clothes.
In the full version, the developer promises new customization options, an expanded set of items, improved fishing and gardening mechanics, additional dialogues and a system of city events.
