An Island Where Everyone Has a Story – Starsand Island NPC Affection Trailer Released

In the latest trailer, we would like to show "NPC Affection System" for the first time. This isn't just a simple "likability mechanic" but a dynamic interaction design built around each NPC's unique personality—more like living on a vibrant island, getting to know real people, slowly being understood, and gradually growing closer.

In Starsand Island, NPCs' emotions shift based on your actions. They'll light up when you remember their preferences, or even pout a little if you've been absent too long. These aren't scripted events but organic, subtle changes in your relationships. You think you're observing them, but they're quietly watching you too.

The real charm? Affection isn't one-sided. As the game progresses, some NPCs will extend kindness on their own—maybe even do something silly just for you. From shifts in conversation tone to giving you personalized gifts, waiting for you by the shore, or wishing upon a star with you in mind… every detail stems from the bond you've built. As shown in the trailer, players gradually uncover Pastelle's unwavering love for animals, help repair her farm equipment, and help her cope with grief over a lost pet. Along the way, she develops her own intimate relations with you. So "romance" isn't just about pursuing NPCs; sometimes, they might be the ones quietly pursuing you.

Each NPC's affection path is unique, with intertwined storylines—romantic, professional, or otherwise. Your decisions matter: the gifts you give, who you spend holidays with, and how you interact will shape their future. Keep an eye out for surprises—whether in chance weather encounters or special events. You might even wake up to an unexpected morning invitation!

The NPCs of Starsand Island aren't just backdrop; they're part of your life on the island. They grow, change, and, when you least expect it, carve a place in your heart, just like the trailer says:

On this island, every islander has a story to tell. Every moment spent together becomes a treasured memory. And your story begins here.
