My favourite idle farming simulator is getting a free new update including a traveling vendor, winter weather, and farmyard pets to lend a paw

A farm with a robot house.

Rusty's Retirement has happily sat at the bottom of my screen on my second monitor since it was released back in April. Even though I've poured hours of my life into farming simulators in the past and created spreadsheets to track profit margins and gift guides for my fellow townsfolk, one thing I adore most about Rusty's Retirement is how non-committal it is. I can easily just keep it running without having to worry about crops wilting between seasons, or severe weather ruining my land rather than being a cute visual addition.

But, as much as I love leaving my little robot farmer to till the soil and sow the seeds, Rusty's Retirement has been feeling a little samey recently.
