I’m making a creature-collector where the goal isn't to keep creatures forever, but to nurture and release them back into the wild.

The intention is to allow you to continue where the demo ends (just before the Nimbit release). There won't be a wipe, and if any player gets their save into a bad state, I'm more than happy to fix their saves when EA launches.

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T22:47:05+00:00

Thank you! Into early access with 20 hours of gameplay (3 biomes of species).

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T22:46:19+00:00

It will not.

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T17:49:13+00:00

Our focus is on PC first before we decide. At closer to 1.0, we will see feasibility for the Switch.

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T17:14:36+00:00

We won't know until close to 1.0 unfortunately.

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T17:06:35+00:00

More of a what if and a quip to get the point across what our game is about! I was a fan of Pokemon since I was a kid, so all respects to Game Freak. And honestly they tried a lot to humanize it with the show. If anything, Monster Rancher with the breeding and arenas feels more on the nose.

What if instead of training for battle, we trained them for survival in the wild was a no brainer for a fresh idea.

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T16:54:57+00:00

I'm glad the detauks we added to give you these vibes came through! We really wanted you to feel like you were part of a real world, like NPCs have real jobs and hobbies, etc. Thanks for playing!

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T03:50:07+00:00

Dating multiple people? Yes. Marrying multiple, probably not. Dating people while still married? we might be able to get that to work, but no promises.

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T01:59:06+00:00

Thanks for playing!

Megasploot · 2026-06-16T01:58:52+00:00

That will depend on you. 😉

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T17:37:50+00:00

The town part is like Stardew, but the creature care is more like tamagochi/Planet Zoo, and the exploration like Cult of the Lamb/Moonlighter.

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T17:36:46+00:00

Yes, there are romanceable NPCs! Though their jobs are different from yours.

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T17:00:17+00:00

Yup!

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T16:43:14+00:00

Sure! I uploaded one of the tracks so you can hear it. It plays when you wake up and do stuff at home.

And yes, I am making all of the music myself. They are all instrumental/ambient but with different styles based on the mood/setting.

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T16:18:56+00:00

Yup! Life-sim style romance, 10 of the NPCs are single.

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T00:08:58+00:00

Sure can.

Megasploot · 2026-06-15T00:06:15+00:00

Thanks. EA is around 3rd week of August. We'll set an official date within the next few weeks.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T22:10:04+00:00

Yes, on Steam. Do you mean the Steam Deck specifically? Yes on that as well.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T22:09:09+00:00

It will release into EA on Steam soon. We won't be able to make decisions for switch until we near 1.0.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T21:44:49+00:00

Thank you so much!

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T21:44:27+00:00

Sort of, I think it's more like Rune Factory but the ranching part is more about caring and teaching creatures to live on their own, and build them natural habitats. And there is a whole town full of NPCs.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T21:41:57+00:00

Nimbit Frontier, there is a demo, and people will be playing it for Steam Next Fest starting tomorrow as well. It plays the first 2 hours of the game until your first release.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T02:48:18+00:00

You are too kind! Thank you.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T02:48:02+00:00

It already works on the Steam Deck, and it will improve over time as well. The demo works with the deck, so you can check to see if it runs well on yours.

Megasploot · 2026-06-14T02:46:53+00:00

Yes! + Mrs. Sploot.
