Petit Planet is exactly the Animal Crossing clone it looked like, but after 15 hours of it I’m shocked by how many new ideas it has too

HoYoverse's new title, Petit Planet, is facing comparisons to Animal Crossing: New Horizons due to its similar gameplay mechanics and charming characters. The game features a protagonist named Nalo and a diverse cast of anthropomorphic animal neighbors, including a squirrel shopkeeper named Glenn. The art style is vibrant and colorful, creating an inviting atmosphere. There are concerns about the game's monetization strategy, including the potential for gacha mechanics and the impact of multiplayer features on user privacy, especially for younger players. Despite these issues, Petit Planet offers a unique experience that may appeal to fans of the cozy gaming genre.

Tarn Adams, co-creator of Dwarf Fortress, has over 1,400 hours in Factorio and is currently obsessed with terraforming games: ‘Dwarf Fortress just doesn’t accommodate a full-on sci-fi thing’

Tarn Adams is the co-founder of Bay 12 Games and is best known for co-creating Dwarf Fortress, which was released in 2006 and is celebrating its 20th anniversary. He has recently been playing The Planet Crafter, a terraforming game, and has logged 1,454.5 hours in Factorio, a factory-building simulation. Adams does not have a single game he would never uninstall but frequently plays Caves of Qud. He uses Ableton, a music sequencer, as essential non-gaming software. His desktop is about half full with various folders and .txt files, including a nostalgic folder for BASIC games from the '80s.
