For anyone considering the game, there's a relevant quote from the developer in one of their blog posts, that I think could help them decide whether it's a game for them or not:

Although Pal World is a very interesting game, I would like to add one point: it is not at all suitable for players who prefer single-player games and want to enjoy the story, so please be aware of that. There's almost no story, so those people won't enjoy it. Fans of survival craft genres such as Minecraft and Valheim will enjoy this game.
