Players' reaction to Landmaster did not please the developer.

Landmaster launched in Steam in early access at the end of October. It is a cozy RPG survival game, reminiscent of Stardew Valley and other similar games in the genre.

The day after the launch, the developer announced the suspension of work:

After launching Landmaster in early access, I quickly realized that the game has not yet reached the desired level. Some core systems and stability issues require significant rework […]

Now the creator of Landmaster has admitted that he underestimated the scale of the labor required for the project and that he has "not enough free time" due to his main job:

Realistically, it will take at least 5–6 months (in ideal conditions) to reach the alpha version, and much more in conditions of limited time. Therefore, I decided to end the development, rather than leave the project unfinished

He urges those who have already managed to buy Landmaster to apply for a refund, as the author does not plan to complete the project.
