Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“An Early Access period will give us the time and feedback needed to tune and polish Minoriko's Homestead Harvest into something special. As our game features many different activities for the player, the community's input on where our efforts are best spent will be invaluable.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Less than six months!”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The following features are planned for 1.0:
- At least two festivals per season.
- More character events.
- More money-making activities for winter.
- A few more permanent townspeople, and small maps to house them.
- Ability to customize your house with decorations after it's been upgraded.
- Some art and effect improvements.
- Endings, of course!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is playable with most core mechanics intact. Players can grow crops, tend chickens, upgrade tools, obtain various automation upgrades, cook food, go fishing, battle through adventure zones, go mining in winter, and befriend the townspeople.

Festivals and various other one-off events are absent, and there is no ending yet.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No, the price will stay the same.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The community's feedback and suggestions will be used to guide and balance the direction of the final product, even across the Casual and Serious Mode difficulty levels - Minoriko's Homestead Harvest should have something for everyone. With Early Access, we can deliver the best possible experience faster.

Although we'll be watching social media, the best place to communicate with us directly will be right here on the Steam discussion board.”

About This Game

This is an unofficial fan work produced under the Touhou Project fan content guidelines. Touhou Project is the property of Team Shanghai Alice / ZUN.

You are MINORIKO AKI, Symbol of Abundance, one of the eight million gods! The field for harvest gods is particularly competitive, so the amount of faith you've been able to scrape together has been modest at best. However, your time to shine is fast approaching!

Gensokyo is growing! As more gods and youkai take refuge from the outside world in this sealed-off fantasy land, more humans are needed to sustain them; thus, many big-name youkai are taking an extended vacation to give the Human Village some breathing room to grow.

This is a big opportunity to increase your popularity! Conspiring with the Moriya Shrine, you aim to help the village expand by supplying it with as many healthy crops as your divine, dirty little hands can cultivate. Time to get to work!

Minoriko's Homestead Harvest is a traditional farm sim set against the colorful backdrop of Touhou Project's Gensokyo. Rather than trying to split the difference between casual players and those that enjoy a time management challenge, it offers two gameplay modes:

  • In Casual Mode, you have as much time each day as you like, and you can play at your own pace to complete the game by meeting certain story objectives.

  • In Serious Mode, each day has a time limit, and you have two in-game years to reach your goal of gathering enough faith through Minoriko's farming operation. Some additional hurdles to make resource management more robust are added as well.

There's more to planning out your farm than just aesthetics! You can't walk through your crops after they've sprouted, so you'll need to plan their placement with care, but your tools can upgrade their area of effect in many ways to suit whatever layout you please. You can build terraces to grow rice and other aquatic crops, as well as lay out an irrigation system through hoses and sprinklers with a variety of patterns.  Players that enjoy a light engineering challenge will find themselves at home here.

Various side sources of income such as fishing and mining are available, but if you want some real excitement, head into Youkai Mountain's adventure zones for some shooting action and loot

The nearby Yasaka Resort Town and surrounding Youkai Mountain feature a large number of the eccentric (and notoriously combative) characters Touhou is known for, but what's a farm sim without a bit of romance?

Hot youkai women in YOUR area!

With a bit of work on your part, you can take one of the local ladies on a date, hang out together as they follow you around, and even bring them along in adventure zones! Once you've grown close enough, and you've built your house with the right amenities to suit their needs, you'll even be able to get one (or more!) of them to move in with you. If you want to be a playgirl, don't worry - they won't get jealous.

Minoriko needs YOUR help to be Gensokyo's #1 harvest god! If you're interested in a new farm sim with a fun setting, check out Minoriko's Homestead Harvest today soon!

Early Access release planned for August 22nd!
