World's Dawn - Wayward Prophet
Hello all!
I'm happy to announce that due to popular demand, Quint and Senah are now marriage candidates! These were two of the most requested additions since the game first launched and I'm hoping they'll give old players a reason to revisit Sugar Blossom Village.



As for new players? World's Dawn is a whopping 75% OFF as part of the Steam Winter Sale, so it's never been cheaper or easier to jump in! I really hope this steep discount will encourage new folks who might be on the fence to try the game out. And I really appreciate any help you can offer spreading the word to friends and family this holiday season ːcoconut_milkːːfruit_juiceːːcrushed_herbː

This has been an amazing year for me since releasing this game last January. I'm a one-man development team without the support of a studio or publisher — so the love and enthusiasm the community has shown World's Dawn has truly kept me going. There are big things in store (including a new project which I'll be officially unveiling soon!) and it's all thanks to you Sugar Blossom villagers.

I hope returning players enjoy the new romance paths, and new players have a warm and cozy time with World's Dawn this winter =)

All my very best,
- David Grund

Hey everyone,
In case you hadn't already noticed, World's Dawn is currently 50% OFF as part of this weeklong sale! This is the cheapest the game has ever been, so if you or anyone you know has been waiting to jump in, now is great time to do so. I appreciate any help you can offer spreading the word this week as well.

In other news, I'm happy to announce that Trading Cards have been added to the game! Starting today you're able to unlock badges, emoticons, and profile backgrounds by collecting and trading 12 unique cards, each one featuring a different Sugar Blossom villager. You can learn more here if you're unfamiliar with how Steam cards and rewards work.


Unfortunately, the next big content update (which includes the addition of Quint and Senah as marriage candidates) is still not quite ready for release. I'm truly sorry for the delay... it's been a very busy summer and I just haven't been able to find the time I'd like to be able to work on World's Dawn. I hope you all know how much I appreciate your support and your patience in the meantime.

Thank you very much for reading!
And welcome to any new players this weeklong sale might bring ːsteamhappyː

Hello all!
I wanted to let everyone know that World's Dawn will be 40% OFF until the end of the Summer Sale! I am very happy to be participating in my first big Steam sale, and hope the discount will motivate new players to jump in about 5 months after release.

World's Dawn is a passion project, born from a love of the Harvest Moon series and developed entirely by yours truly in my spare time. The game was received very warmly and I'm extremely grateful to the Steam community for embracing my little farming sim. It has done well, but unfortunately not quite well enough to fully support its own continued development... so it's still a project I'm only able to work on during my spare hours. I know that's not much of an excuse for the lack of updates these past few months, but I want everyone to know I certainly haven't given up on making World's Dawn better. I simply haven't had much time to do so!

That said, I wanted to give you a sneak peak of the next big update, which will include the much-requested addition of new marriage candidates Quint and Senah!



I don't have a release date for this content update quite yet, but I promise you won't have to wait too long. There will be other additions to the game included, though I'm not quite ready to announce all of them yet.

Thank you so much for playing World's Dawn and for your continued support of this project! I would really appreciate any and all help you're able to give spreading the word during the Summer Sale and beyond =)

Hey all! I thought I would post a quick update about the most recent patch and run through which bugs have been addressed. Here are the highlights:

  • Achievements have been temporarily disabled since activating them caused a crash for some players. You can still unlock the in-game marks and I'll hopefully have everything connected and working again soon.
  • Pressing the bell at the Wild Rose Clinic will no longer cause the game to freeze regardless of day or time.
  • Your spouse should no longer spawn in strange places (or spawn twice). If you continue to run into this bug, please let me know, as all the unique circumstances can be difficult for me to recreate and playtest.
  • Assorted typos and grammar issues have been fixed.



I appreciate you continuing to report any bugs you run into! I'm not planning to abandon World's Dawn any time soon and will be releasing periodical patches to keep things running smoothly.

I know a lot of people have requested major content updates (additional marriage candidates, ability to have children, etc.) and I'm definitely taking these things into account as I decide how to move forward. If you'd like to see more content added to the game, the best way you can make that happen is to help spread the word about World's Dawn! The more people that find, play, and share the game, the more resources I'll be able to put back into development =)

Thanks so much for your support! If you'd like to receive more regular updates, feel free to follow the Wayward Prophet Facebook page or join our forum.

Hey everyone!
Since the release of World's Dawn a little over a week ago, I've received a ton of wonderful suggestions and feedback from the community. I read and took to heart all of your comments and messages, and have been hard at work implementing many of the suggested improvements into the game's first big content update.



First things first... you now start the game with twice as much farmland! This was by the far the most requested improvement, so I'm happy to say you can now plant up to 40 crops in your hillside plot. In addition, you're be able to water multiple crops at once after upgrading your Watering Can at the Sunflower Farm.

Another new feature is Noah's Notebook, a handy guide you'll receive at the beginning of the game that better explains its many mechanics and activities. Many players requested an improved tutorial (especially those unfamiliar with the Harvest Moon series) and this new item should certainly help.

The third major addition is each villager's name appearing over their sprite when you talk to them. This will help new players keep track of who's who when they first move to town. After a few weeks (once you're familiar with all the characters) these names will be hidden.


In addition to these improvements, many early bugs have been addressed. Here are the highlights:
  • The game-freezing bug some players encountered after marrying Hailey should no longer occur.
  • If you proposed in the winter (or possibly late autumn) and Seth didn't set a date for your wedding, he will return in the morning and set it for the next available date.
  • The character portraits for all marriage candidates will now change with each season.
  • Villagers should no longer refer to you as the wrong gender. Many other minor dialogue issues have been fixed as well.

These are just a few of the issues that have been addressed. I have been following the discussion forum very closely and have been working hard to fix all the little bugs that have popped up over the past week.

On that note, I really appreciate your patience as I continue to improve World's Dawn! A game with this many variables based on player choice is incredibly difficult to playtest... especially as a one-man development team. I can't express how grateful I am at the amount of support and positive energy that has come my way since launch =)

Thank you all so much! Please continue to report any bugs you run into and any suggestions you might have. I'm not planning to stop updating the game any time soon!
