It Has Lots of Stardew Valley-Like Features, And Builds On Them
Lightyear Frontier definitely has lots of elements that will be familiar to Stardew Valley fans. For starters, yes, there is farming. You’re going to need to plant crops on a faraway planet and learn about what kinds of things grow there and what they need to survive. There’s also weather, just like Stardew Valley, which impacts the types of things you can grow.
What’s interesting, though, is that it seems like the weather is going to be quite impactful in Lightyear Frontier. Things like storms can threaten your farm. According to the IGN interview, there are survival elements at play, but not for your character, this isn’t No Man’s Sky. However, your crops can die if you don’t properly shield them from the elements, wildlife you encounter and give them what they need.
