unlabelledView post →I'm so tired of every larger style cozy game I show interest in being tainted by AI. Starsand Island, Petit Island, etc. Anytime I show interest in a big cozy game that isn't Animal Crossing, the technopoison keeps showing up and it's so disheartening.
unlabelledView post →I have never had more people backseat game me recently than with Starsand Island. It's in the rules of my chat to please not do that, we have a codeword I use to ask for help. From now on, my mods are going to pin a message to not do this when I play the game. My patience isn't infinite, holy crap.

unlabelledView post →Last review of the day. Starsand Island, which I wanted to really like, but just couldn't get there. I had like 30 hours to go before a game-breaking bug ruined my run, so I would have recommended it despite flaws up until that point...
unlabelledView post →So disappointed seeing Starsand Island's recent Steam reviews. 🥀 It looked like cuch a cute game too. The community is not thrilled about missing features, undisclosed Ai use and more. After Heartopia's disappointment I was really hopping for a cute cozy gamer win. ♡

unlabelledView post →Since playing Harvest Moon Its A Wonderful Life on game cube I've always had a soft spot for cozy farm games so after sinking some time into Blackflag its time to try out Starsand Island I've been waiting patiently for this for a while so let's see how it goes
unlabelledView post →Yeah this model is 9 years old. The game in question is Starsand, not the most demanding game and it might work fine on his laptop but this guy is playing a LOT of stuff that would be miserable experiences on that hardware.
unlabelledView post →Starsand Island had its 1.0 launch a few days ago. The reviews are in and they are dire. I just don't understand why the game spent six months in early access. It doesn't look like they added half the promised features in or even refined what was in EA build very much at all.

unlabelledView post →You ever back a game on kickstarter, then way later, you find out some info that makes you regret that choice? As far as I can tell, it's not bad, it's just not the game that was promised? The reviews are mixed-negative from what I'm seeing. The game is Starsand Island, and I regret backing it.
unlabelledView post →And the story just isn't there. the characters just aren't there. It's just kind of in it's current state a nothingburger. Seeing a positive review of Starsand Island is also just like...how much did they pay you for that review of this glitchy ass dogshit game? sorry I'm legit angry....
