I canโ€˜t make specific promises Iโ€˜m afraid, but I recommend giving feedback directly to Aesir about which additional accessibility options would be needed!

03.03.2026 12:37 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 4    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

not entirely no combat, since lots of people requested additional uses for archery. But "peaceful mode" was a KS stretch goal and will be an option at some point!

I always feel the need to add that there isn't actually a pronoun selection in the game, you play a fixed female character who uses she/her and these idiots got *that* outraged over what was always just a joke from my side ๐Ÿ™ˆ

03.03.2026 11:56 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yes!! I was actually creative lead on it during concept phase very early on, and then stayed as consultant :)

Check out our dev diaries on steam for more!! Also lots of reviews trickling in from various big sites :)

03.03.2026 11:24 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

the horses have needs (hunger, thirst, mood) and will react if you don't treat them well, and they display a wide range of idle behaviors as well as some independent behavior like grazing and drinking when you let them

03.03.2026 11:20 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

worth noting since I dusted off the old viral post again:
- the game is called The Legend of Khiimori: @playkhiimori.bsky.social
- the "no combat" claim is slightly outdated, we've since built out archery uses a bit but it's still quite cozy
- peaceful mode was a KS stretch goal and will be added

with the imminent release of a very ambitious horse game into EARLY access, may I remind everyone once again that games that get mostly/very positive reviews sell better and games that sell get more support. out of sheer self-interest, be a little bit generous with early steam reviews ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

03.03.2026 11:14 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 20    ๐Ÿ” 3    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

by "this post" I mean this one from today! the one from september 2024 with the video already has over 1k but you're OF COURSE very welcome to spread it further and tell people that early access releases today ๐Ÿ˜‡

Is 500 reposts too ambitious? Perhaps. But may I once again remind you how much you all fucking love to repost this post about the same game: bsky.app/profile/mali...
