Humble Games to publish queer farming sim Coral Island

Humble Games, the indie publishing body from digital storefront Humble Bundle, have announced their partnership with Coral Island developers, Stairway Games.

Coral Island is a re-imagined farm sim game that’s inspired by the classics like Harvest Moon and Rune Factory, developed by a multinational team based in Indonesia. The game invites players to experience an enchanting, unique island where folks live at their own pace and encourage you to do the same.

Players will live off the land; nurturing animals, exploring the world by land and by sea, making the island a more vital and harmonious place, and even taking the time to get to know the residents of Coral Island. Here you’ll be able to get closer and build a friendship, or maybe even more… if you play your cards right, that is.

Another interesting thing about Coral Island is that the game aims to spread awareness around ocean conservation – something which looks to protect and preserve ecosystems that reside in the ocean and seas around the world. Stairway Games have included this important aim through incorporating marine conservation into Coral Island’s core narrative and game loop, all while keeping the game nice, breezy, and wholesome.

Humble Games, the publisher behind award-winning games like Unpacking, Temtem, and Slay the Spire are bringing the farming sim to its arsenal, supporting the indie studio in developing a game that has a unique edge.

You can view the key art of Coral Island below, where you can feast your eyes upon the bright colours and intriguing characters that you’ll meet when the farming sim releases.
