After The End: The Harvest

[h1] Not sure about this one but I think you should play Phantasy Star series instead. [/h1]

It's buggy, ♥♥♥♥♥♥, messy, the controls are awkward (at first) and a good amount of collision doesn't work... but this is one dang fine game. The planets are full of towns and things to find, secret areas everywhere, tons of quests, ... probably TOO many items (I know you have a light sabre, but can I interest you in 20 types of dagger?). It even has a pokemon minigame. It's even a mini-metroidvania... ... sorta... but not really; you do need a lot of side items to avoid dying to heat/cold/space/radiation So far I've found about 10 planets, and each of them has a dozen or so towns and each of those is completely unique - I haven't found any copy/paste design yet. Highlights: * Going into every house and looting garbage I already have x99 of (cuz I'm an addict) * Using homing+piercing plasma because it just sits on enemies until they die * Guns that Stunlock * Voluntarily getting out of your ship in deep space and just up and dying cuz you didn't have your suit on. Lowlights: - No autosave, and you will die die die DIE a lot due to general inattentiveness.

After The End: The Harvest is an ambitious indie title developed and published by Elushis Music & Gaming, a small studio that set out to combine exploration, adventure, and classic RPG storytelling into a single expansive experience. At its core, it’s a game about curiosity and survival in a post-human universe, one where the remnants of civilization are scattered among the stars and you play as a wanderer drawn into a mystery that spans worlds. The game’s premise is both intimate and vast: you begin as a lone explorer who encounters a mysterious intelligent being, and from that meeting unfolds a journey that slowly unravels the secrets of a dying cosmos. While the narrative is minimalist in its delivery, it’s designed to evoke that sense of wonder that comes from stepping into an unknown universe full of strange life, hidden relics, and the echo of something ancient waiting to be discovered. Gameplay is where After The End: The Harvest truly shows its scope. Built with RPG Maker, it stretches the boundaries of what that engine can do, offering a blend of 2D top-down action, exploration, and simulation mechanics. The player can traverse planets, space stations, and asteroid fields…

Way better than I thought it'd be.
