A genuinely very sweet little farming game. I enjoyed the characters and the premise a lot, the potion making is fun.
The things I loved most up first:
- I am a huge fan of making potions to cure the villagers of this small town
- The overarching story is super sweet, repairing the town, solving a big miscommunication and some pollution issues
- The environment is really well designed and the themes and plants of each region are very beautiful and creative
- The game doesn't put any apparent restrictions on who you can date in terms of gender or how many people you can date, that's a personal plus for me
- The dog companion you get is the cutest thing and a very good boy

Of course there are some things of note when picking up this game that I would advise to be mindful of, since it bothered me:
- There are some bugs regarding cooking recipes I've already collected not showing up in the menu and still showing me an array of ???, specifically the seafood platter, i believe.
- In the game there is a mechanic where when you gather enough herbs of a certain type, you get the seeds for it to grow at home. You get the little cutscene for every herb in the game, but you can only actually plant the seeds from the first area, the meadows. I don't know if that is an issue with only my game or if it is going to be an update in the future, but I found it a little sad, especially since the game handled it as if i could use the seeds.
- The appearance of the mushrooms in the environment don't match the actual item sprite as well as I'd like, especially cause almost all other sprites are pretty accurate. (I am realizing that this point might be a little nitpicky though)
- Once you max out your fishing skill there isn't really a cutscene or story beat commemorating that, the same happens when you max out friendship with all villagers. I think it would be nice to have the game acknowledge that, currently it feels like an endeavor that isn't rewarded, which again, a shame.

But the things i didn't like are comparatively minor things. The game played really well both with a keyboard and my controller and I definitely recommend playing it.

wake up->make potion->check clinic->chat with folks->hunting & foraging->sleep->repeat

I love the thoughtful storyline, variety of NPCs we get to interact with (and romance!), and the overall low-stakes, calming vibe of the gameplay. Good game for stress relief.
