Harvest McDoom

Whereas “cozy” video games are all the fashion on the indie scene nowadays, maybe one of many gold requirements for enjoyable, casual-grind-based gameplay is Natsume’s iconic farming sequence, Harvest Moon — And the franchise appears to have had one thing of an odd impact on YouTuber Cloudie McDoom, who wakened yesterday morning to seek out themselves occupying a live-action recreation of the beloved franchise.

While I received’t spoil the work that has gone into this quick, however genuine tackle Harvest Moon‘s hard-working world, Cloudie’s video raises quite a lot of smiles due to its U.I implementation, use of flailing limbs and stop-start pictures to actually seize gaming’s traditional “zero-turning-circle” animation type. The sounds, music, and fade-outs solely full the impact.

There are not any squawking chickens, fox assaults, or journeys to the market, sadly, however I dig the real-life recreation of Harvest Moon‘s “square-by-square” gardening methods. And in case you loved the Harvest Moon video, you should definitely try Cloudie McDoom’s channel over on YouTube for extra parodies and recreations of traditional video video games.

The most recent Harvest Moon title, Harvest Moon: One World, is accessible now on Nintendo Change.
