You should make it so if u buy both games u can get items or things that relate to say stardew Vally in Starbound, sorta the same the other way around
I don't know about some sort of "buying both games" deal, but cameos/references from/to Stardew Valley, Treasure Adventure World, and Wanderlust in Starbound would be pretty neat.
I really, really hope that they don't do some BS stuff to where you have to buy multiple games to 'get' every feature. Though I do agree with Shark on cameos and references, that would be nice.
I think a sort of bundle deal would be nice; get all four (and counting) games published by Chucklefish for a reduced price. Throw in a Team Fortress 2 item and I would move heaven and earth to buy that.
Pre-order bonuses, how do they work? Dishonored for example. Thank goodness for the little guys who just want to make fun games. Totally on-board with the cameo thing though, Starbound's already got plenty of stuff like that already, no reason not to put in some for Stardew Valley as well.
Somehow I have run into this even with small indie games. Why, oh why, do devs feel the need to make so many pre-order exclusives? Just add it to the bloody game, give us the full experience. They'd keep some integrity, alienate less consumers, and the game wouldn't be any worse for it.
TB made some good points, especially after that whole thing with the new Aliens game. Something else that's become fairly prevalent with new games is the whole Founder's program concept (not to mention that Kickstarter-like tiered reward system that's been showing up on Steam....) Which is great I guess for people with too much money, but from my perspective it's just kinda strange, dropping a pile of money on a game that isn't finished... then again I'm sitting here waiting for preorder announcements for Starbound and Stardew Valley, so I'm basically a hypocrite at this point. Back on topic: what kind of crossover content do you think would work? Non-onion lizard cows in Starbound???
I want Starbound to be a comic in Stardew Valley Or just an easter egg where you see aliens from the Starbound universe but as fast, non-hostile creatures, like the Pop-Top
Can't wait for this and Starbound now I'm equally excited at both since I've been an avid Harvest Moon fan since I was a kid!
i dont think thats even posable unless you use an always online sever (like how tf2 is) and that will drive afew players away and already isnt the best idea lol
