3	Congratulations! After weeks of being down on your luck in the big city, you've found your calling: farming! A real estate agency is selling a beautiful farm property down south, and you have just enough in your savings to buy it outright! Risking it all, you decide to leave the city tonight so you can start your farming dreams tomorrow!
4
5	Except you almost immediately get caught in a storm, total your car, and are now stuck in a town with some of the strangest people you've ever met. Even worse, that farm you bought? Yeah, it's completely infested with weeds and hasn't been lived on in years. Even worse, according to the townspeople, it wasn't even for sale! You now find yourself in a seemingly hostile town where one mystery seems to just stack on another... Only one thing's for sure: Bedford Valley is hiding something.

7	''Wild Season'' is a farming {{Simulation Game}} developed by Quickfire Games. It draws major inspiration from ''VideoGame/HarvestMoon'', ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing'', and ''VideoGame/ThousandArms'' - among others. The game will give the player greater control over their farms, as has been seen in ''VideoGame/HarvestMoonANewBeginning'', and has a greater focus on forming relationships with the other citizens of the town by forming friendships, romances, and rivalries with their unique [[LiteralMetaphor Friend Zone]] system, even allowing for same-sex relationships.

9	The team had a successful [[http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sbalani/wild-season-inspired-by-harvest-moon Kickstarter]] that was funded in December 2013, and was also [[http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=197092124 Greenlit]] on Steam. However, no updates have been made to the game since June of 2016; while no official cancellation was ever announced, at the very least it's safe to assume that the game has fallen into DevelopmentHell.
