Merge Games and Maple Powered Games have announced that their upcoming farming simulator game, Monster Harvest, has been delayed again for a few days, and will now launch on the 31st of August.
While this is not a huge delay, but just under two weeks additional waiting time, the developer has stated that they need a little more time to polish Monster Harvest to its true potential. In all honesty, there is nothing wrong with working to make a game better and delivering it at a later date. At least, that is what we have learned from major AAA recently.
The team over at Maple Powered Games released a short statement on why the game has been delayed,
We know you’ll be disappointed and we do not take these decisions lightly. There was one final development hurdle to jump over that didn’t quite work out and pushing back a little was necessary to deliver exactly what we want players to experience. There’s a wonderful community that has sprouted up around Monster Harvest and we absolutely want to do right by the community, even when it means making what could be a disappointing decision.
The Steam demo is still there and available to play! Your progress in the demo will carry over to the full game, though you may want to consider starting fresh and taking advantage of any improvements and fixes added by that point.
Thank you so much for the continued support and your patience as we make sure Planimal Point is ready for your arrival!
