Novastella Island

This game runs at 20% use of my computer even when minimized. Something shady about the program of this game. It's running something in the background of the program when in use. It seems to be doing something suspicious. Even when you go to close the game it continues to run in your system until you ctrl-alt-delete at times. Do not recommend. Something is up with the actual program. Avoid this game. There are plenty of better games like this on Steam. Something is highly suspicious with the actual program that runs the game.

Most of the negative reviews here are to accuse that the devs are scammers due to their shady history background, they aren't here for the honest reviews about the game. [b]I said "most"[/b], so don't get me wrong. While the review tab is flaming with full of angry negative reviews about how shady the company is, I'd like to share my review about the game and keep it as positive as possible :) I was looking for the games that involved both anime styles and either building or farming sim elements. And this game was caught into my eyes. So yeah I bought it without any hesitations. Hate me all you want haters, you won't win anything :P Anyway I'm not gonna lie, I like the game though. This game is pretty chilling, and that's my preference. You run around the world gathering items and start off with crafting, then proceed to building, fishing and taking quests. No combats though, but still enjoyable. The graphics look quite beautiful. The simplistic look of characters, world, and atmosphere are totally in my taste! I like it! Although there aren't plenty of contents to enjoy with yet, besides building and collecting, the game is still in an early-access state so I hope they add more contents like quests or new explorable areas and stuff in the future. Also, I've tried it on my steam deck. It runs okay though, but that's about it. The game isn't optimized for the deck yet, not even for the other gaming controllers. The tutorials, quest descriptions, and the key features are all biased on PC. The text and UI are too small for the screen so it's quite hard to give it a good view. Well... I believe in hope that devs would have a plan to update the game for the decks as well.. Like I said above... it's still in an early-access state... yeah? right??? Can't say that I wasn't disappointed when they announced to postpone the release date right on the initial release date. But I'd like to say that it has a potential to be a good game, from what I've looked through, so hope them to keep up the good work and compensate all the let-downs from the past.
