About the Game

Restore Your Grandfather’s Tropical Resort

Sunny Island is a cozy first-person life sim where you arrive on a sunny island and take over an old resort left behind by your grandfather.

The place is damaged, abandoned, and far from its former glory. Step by step, you can bring it back to life: repair buildings, decorate spaces, open new services, and turn a forgotten family business into a lively tropical resort.

Build, Decorate, and Grow Your Resort

Every building, decoration, and upgrade helps transform the island. You start with simple repairs, then unlock new facilities, areas, and ways to expand.

Open a shop, prepare a bar, start a restaurant, renovate rental cabins, and create a place where tourists want to spend their time.

Run Your Own Island Businesses

Tourists arrive on the island by boat, and you decide how to take care of them. Sell products, prepare orders, manage cabins, and keep your resort running better each day.

Each day can look different. Work on your businesses, gather resources, decorate a new area, or head out and see what lies beyond the resort.

Farm, Fish, Gather, and Dive

The island gives you everything you need to grow. Plant crops, catch fish, collect ingredients, and search for materials in the wilder parts of the island.

You can also dive beneath the surface, where more resources, hidden places, and rare finds wait underwater.

Discover Secrets with Your Feathered Companion

During your journey, you will find a cute, slightly clumsy feathered creature. It becomes your companion and helps you reach places you could not access alone.

Together, you will solve light puzzles, open new paths, and find hidden parts of the island.

Explore an Island Full of Secrets

Sunny Island is more than a resort. Walk through beaches, caves, ruins, hidden paths, and underwater locations.

Solve simple environmental puzzles, discover secret places, and collect rare resources that help you develop the resort even further.

Play Alone or with a Friend

Restore the resort peacefully at your own pace, or invite a friend and play together in 2-player co-op

Split the tasks or do everything side by side. One player can serve guests while the other gathers resources. You can decorate the resort, fish, dive, or discover hidden locations together.
