Arcade farming sim Super Farming Boy announced for Switch

LemonChili Soft has announced Super Farming Boy, an action puzzle farming sim with chain reactions and combos. The project is in development for Switch and other platforms.

LemonChili tells us that their new game is like Harvest Moon on steroids. You’ll actually be able to play with controllers and touch at the same time.

We’ve got lots more on it in the following overview:

Super Farming Boy is an exciting mix of action, puzzle, and farming sim, heavily relying on chain reactions and combos.

In Super Farming Boy, you assume the role of Super, whose mom and friends have been captured by the evil nemesis, KORPO®©TM. Unlawfully hiring you to work on your own land, Korpo taxes all proceeds for himself! Now, with your friends and mom up for sale, you must harvest your way through some wacky challenges, saving enough to rescue them back!

In Super Farming Boy, there are no tools because you are the tool. With the simple push of a button, you can transform into a shovel, a hammer, a pickaxe, a watering can, and more! Super Farming Boy can even FLY! The game’s central mechanic revolves around chain reactions and combos! The magical seed creatures in this world, once harvested, trigger specific chain-reaction effects that enable you to optimize your farm in ways never seen before in a farming game.
