Harvest Moon creator Yasuhiro Wada has a new studio and a new game in the works, currently codenamed Project Happiness. TOYBOX, Rising Star Games and Natsume have just released the first teaser trailer for the game and it looks very much like Wada's signature style.
The voiceover will sound familiar to Little King's Story players, and the art style rings a few bells too: character design was handled by Pokémon series artist Atsuko Nishida. Best of all is famed Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu is providing the soundtrack; sounds like Wada has some pretty powerful connections in the Japanese development community. Or maybe he just has dirt on a lot of people.
It might look like a Facebook-style game but we've been assured it's not browser-based, and with Wada's past history on Nintendo platforms there's hope we'll be playing Project Happiness on a Nintendo console in the near future.

look kinda cool
As long as I can decide NOT to be a farmer, I'll buy the game.
Iphone game! Better be a E-shop game for 99 cent.
@firearrow505 Lol. nice joke.
Looks good. I'm rather liking the art style.
Hopefully it will come to the 3DS.
looks like fantasy life which hasn't had news in a long time
if this came to a nintendo platform then nintendo would have announced it at one of there conferences at this year's E3.
oh wait!
nintendo isnt announcing new games...i forgot
looks insanely boring tbh.
Boring...
It looks like a boring facebook game but if its not coming out until 2013 then they must be putting a lot into it so maybe it will be better than it looks.
^VG Cats!
And yeah, I'm not sure about the gameplay in this, looks kinda odd, but I doubt that's even a fraction of what you do in the game. I'm still keeping my hopes up for now.
@TwilightPoint Yeah! i made a funny.
If I can't fight stuff then it's a no. I'm not really a fan at all of those types of games. But the style's cute.
This is ... vague. A game where you buy round fruit. But "what would you choose?" Don't know. Guess I'll find out next time I pick fruit at the grocery. I think this is a bit to under baked to have a trailer like this full of vague phrases. It suggests almost nothing. Thanks for the article though because the list of people involved was far more interesting than the video.
Hmmm, I don't know. I have to see more before I can make any judgement.
"What would you do? A boy and a girl" ...<__< I'd rather not go to jail thank you.
agree with aaronsullivan, I think my wife might like this game... not my cup of tea really...
