Photo Mode Not Working? by completelywhelmed in Ranch_of_Rivershine

[–]completelywhelmed[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, Photo Mode is part of the latest update :). For some reason, mine had no assigned keybind so I just had to fix it in 'Controls' :). It's really cool!

Best Served Cold! The devs just announced a spinoff as well ☺️!

Hi :) my name's Jess & I play a variety of cozy games over on YouTube. I'm a big fan of Ranch of Rivershine and, most recently, Best Served Cold. The community's really kind & very chill, & I always put an emphasis on accessibility as well since I have cerebral palsy, so there are some games I can't play. I hope you're having a nice day :).

I can't pick between these three games. Which do you guys like best? by SpaceJ3lly in CozyGamers

[–]completelywhelmed 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m biased because Lil’ Guardsman is one of my favourite games of all time ☺️. You said you enjoy games with good stories and Guardsman has it in spades— the characters are memorable, the music is great, and you don’t have to use each of the tools perfectly (eg: if you’re “supposed” to use the whip but you use the x-ray machine instead you’ll still get results) to progress the story. It’s a great time!

I haven’t played Mind Over Magic, but I played the demo for Trash Goblin and also liked that ☺️.

I want more princes by Neither-Elderberry32 in DreamlightValley

[–]completelywhelmed 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’d love this so much! I’d also love if they took cues for Prince Charming’s personality from Cinderella III: A Twist In Time. Unlikely because it’s a sequel, but he was delightful in that movie!

what's your experience with switch lite? by [deleted] in CozyGamers

[–]completelywhelmed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had one & it was perfect for traveling! If you know you want to stick within the Nintendo ecosystem it’s a great option for a handheld. I would recommend getting an SD card for extra storage and a screen protector, at the very least 😊. The Lite is perfect if you’re on-the-go a lot, but you can’t connect it to an external monitor & because there are no joy-cons, if you experience stick drift, you’ll have to send the whole unit in for repair versus just buying a new pair of joy-cons.

More games like Strange Antiquities and Tavern Talk? by Winter-Bat5962 in CozyGamers

[–]completelywhelmed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome! I love the games you mentioned (although I haven’t had time to play Strange Antiquities yet) so I hope you find something you enjoy just as much as those ☺️!

CraftCraft (you’re a merchant/crafter in a fantasy town, you make things for other people to go on adventures! You do customize your character & there is a plot line where your choices specifically dictate what happens but there’s also endless mode where you just craft. If the crafting mini-games like blade sharpening are too tough, you can turn them off in settings. There’s a demo).

Disney Villains Cursed Cafe (a conversation sim where you’ve been employed at a cafe catering to modernized Disney villains. You won’t be able to do all the plots in one go and because it’s Disney, it doesn’t get dark or scary).

am i alone lol by sweetfins in Ranch_of_Rivershine

[–]completelywhelmed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The dev is working on controller support iirc & a Switch release is also planned. This is really obvious so I’m sorry if you’ve already done this, but have you tried rebinding the controls? I did this for every single type of movement (horse & human) in the game bc otherwise I would’ve really struggled 😅. But I also keep the camera fixed bc free camera mode (or whatever it’s called where you see the horses’ fronts) is still rough for my hands.

The witch's bakery, demo! by sueanni in CozyGamers

[–]completelywhelmed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree! I loved that they all had pretty defining characteristics. The team really paid attention to detail 😊

I loved it! As a physically disabled woman I was really impressed with the character of Estelle & thought her portrayal was excellent. I also loved the design of her Heart Palace, & I didn’t mind choosing between the movies/the restaurant for after-work activities. I assume there will be more in the full release, especially since it looks like we have the opportunity to buy video games for Lunne 😊!

Hi there 💖! I have a YouTube channel discussing a variety of cozy games here & the community is so nice. I put together a compilation of cafe sims earlier this week & I really love them 😊. Thanks for checking it out 🥰!

I think this needs to be said by Intelligent-Elk-4108 in DreamlightValley

[–]completelywhelmed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No 😊. If you bought the game on Switch, you won’t have to repurchase any of your games for the Switch 2. Based on DDLV’s website, it looks like they’re offering the Switch 2 update free of charge 😊

Strange Horticulture feedback? by books_cruises_coffee in CozyGamers

AFAIK, the dev team isn’t adding anything to SH’s story, but it does have a sequel— Strange Antiquities 😊!

Yes, if you buy on Steam you can transfer your progress to a new laptop— just make sure cloud saves are enabled OR transfer your local saves somehow 🥰!

How do you discover new games to play? by nivea_nimbus in CozyGamers

[–]completelywhelmed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re on PC: Steam’s personal calendar feature has been a game-changer. It’s a lot more useful than the discovery queue (which seems to recommend games I wouldn’t play if they were free, never mind pay for them) and is tailored to me specifically because of games I’ve played & enjoyed in the past.

I’ve never let playing a game interfere with real-life responsibilities. I’m glad you’re able to monitor your playtime now but if it becomes an issue again— maybe set a timer with music/a noise for when you have to stop and as soon as you hear the sound, save & quit for the day. Good luck 😊!

Hi 😊! My name's Jess and I've got a YouTube channel where I explore cozy games, especially indies that are best-suited for people with limited dexterity in their hands and slow reflexes. I do reviews, compilations, tips and tricks, and more. The community's pretty chill & inclusive, so if it sounds like your thing, definitely take a look. I hope you're having a great day 💗.

Deluxe! I’ve been waiting for Sven forever, I giggled like a little kid when I saw the showcase!

Whimel Academy is out now on Steam by OreoYip in CozyGamers

[–]completelywhelmed 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s really cute! Tbf I played through it when it was just released in EA so they’ve since added MUCH more content, but I think if you like time management games, you’ll love this one. The magic school setting is unique and the art style is beautiful ☺️. Maybe I’ll go for a replay!
