Latest Updates from Our Project:

Less than 24 hours left!!

Hey SunnySide friends!! 

It's been a crazy journey the last 29 days, not only we managed to fund our dream project with your help but we found friends and awesome people that share the same passion as us! There's now only 24 hours left on our campaign with - as of right now - 176% funded.✨

Although only 24 hours are left on the clock, our second stretch goal still seems within reach!! So if you really want to try SunnySide co-op, share the game with your friends and communities!! You know what to do 😌


But the end of campaign doesn't mean you cannot get any more SunnySide goodies, we're opening a BackerKit page right after the campaign ends so if you miss this window you can still pre-order the game on your platform of choice. 

To honour our backers, the game will be available for £24.99 instead of the £20 Early Bird pledge. You also cannot get the physical guide book anymore after the campaign ends, so if you really really want it PLEDGE NOW!! You'll still be able to get the digital version after the campaign is over. 


Some awesome stuff happened in the last few days:

SunnySide became a "Project we Love"!! 

The awesome people of Kickstarter decided SunnySide was great enough to be on their special list! This is not only great for the campaign but makes our hearts very very content.

We now have a character modeller!

Since the beginning we wanted SunnySide to have its own style and identity. To design our big cast of NPCs we needed someone with the skill to make us custom models from the ground up, thankfully Allan is more than up to the task! You can check out his other work over here. 

He will start work this week and we cannot wait to finally show you some finalised character models from SunnySide! 

Fans of our current characters like Sebastian or Kat, don't worry! We're not redesigning them, we're just overhauling them and taking away that default Vroid look. They're going to look basically the same, but have custom SunnySide models. More on them very soon.


Lastly, I wanted to ask all of our backers to join up on our Discord server if you haven't already!

Not only you will get a nice little role that corresponds to your pledge, but we run so many of our Kickstarter related content and information over there, so don't miss out!!

See you all in 24 hours!

OST Cassette Tape Giveaway + Next Devstream Details!!
about 4 years ago – Tue, Feb 02, 2021 at 08:27:14 AM

Hey, Sunnyside friends!

Just checking our campaign and we're 55% of the way there! Awesome!🎉🎉


Although we're still on track to reach our goal, we need to keep the momentum and I'm sure you guys wouldn't mind having those stretch goals achieved! So, from all of us at the team, I'd like to ask for your help to spread the word about our campaign. Share the link, post about it on your Instagram story, tell your favourite streamers and YouTubers about it! Go wild!


We got 250 of you all! (at the time of writing this :P) We could totally throw a huge Sunnyside live concert with all of you, but oh well Covid is still at large. Alas, there's something else we can do, and that's:

 ~ Having another giveaway ~ 

How you might ask? Well, this time we're giving away our OST on my second favourite music format: Cassette Tapes!! We asked ourselves, what's more nostalgic than a Farming-sim JRPG? Cassette Tapes of course! (I know, I'm old)

We offer these babies in four variants and you get to choose which, once you win the giveaway! 

How do you win these?

Well, it's simple! First, back the game with any of the pledge tiers. Then use this link to join up on the giveaway. It ends on Wednesday 26th, so don't miss out!!

~Good luck!!~


Now to the next Devstream!

Thank you to all of our lovely fans for joining us in the last stream. We're going to have another, on Friday 22nd. The time ended up being a bit late for some people, so we decided to move it back 2 hours. Save the time on your calendar:

🕘 21:00 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

🕐 13:00 Pacific Time (PT)

You can catch our Devstreams over on our Twitch channel.

Prepare your questions, and join us as we go over more Sunnyside stuff in-engine!


Lastly, I wanted to give a shout-out to IndieLodge for covering our game! They wrote a nice article about Sunnyside on their blog over here. Give it a read!


And that's all from me. Give your pets a pat from us, and stay hydrated!

See you all in the next update 👋

New early access tier added!
about 4 years ago – Sun, Jan 31, 2021 at 04:35:03 PM

Hey everyone!

First, I'd like to thank each and every one of our backers for their continues support. With your contributions, we can bring the best version of Sunnyside possibly to life, for you all to enjoy for years!


New Tier Added

A number of people interested in the campaign reached out about the steep price of our Early Access tier. We had a chat with the team and decided to add a new £45 tier with early access. This tier, however, is limited, so if you like to be on the early access program, make sure to grab it before it goes!


Stay safe out there,

See you all in the next update
