Overview
- Shinichi Manabe launched Farnia Village, a farming-life and action RPG for PC via Steam, with narrative by Rune Factory writer Takanori Tsuji.
- The Kickstarter sought ¥5,000,000 (about $33,000) and, according to reporting, surpassed that target within a day.
- Manabe says he will handle most development tasks himself, with additional contributions from character artists benitama, kannnu, and BOKI simole, and composer Tomoko Morita of Studio Qareeb.
- The campaign lists pledge delivery estimates ranging from September 2027 to September 2028, reflecting the extended timeline for the mostly solo effort.
- The team targets an initial PC release and says console versions are a future possibility, with the game optimized for hardware comparable to Nintendo Switch; stretch goals include extra characters, more dungeons and crops, and additional music.
