This isn’t my best game yet—it’s not as fun to play as Battle Drones—but it represents the kind of game I want more of: weird, fun, uniquely personal—something that wouldn’t have been built in the before-times.

This is about the cosy farming game btw. The 'uniquely personal' is the fact you grow pumpkins and the author grew up in a place that grew pumpkins. Imagine not engaging with the already oversaturated farming sim genre because it's not enough of a facsimile of your childhood. It's all just so anti-art.

    Have you seen the amount of pumpkins you can grow in Stardew Valley? You can even grow huge ones randomly. And I'm sure you can mod in bigger farmland or automatic huge pumpkins. Or even make other crops look like pumpkins or something.

    This person just wants to feel like they "made" something special that no one else has ever thought of.

    You can grow stupidly large pumpkins at a rapid pace in the farmer was replaced! Oh, right, this is probably the worst game you could give this guy; it teaches you the fundamentals of computer programming 😱
