> Stardew Valley Hits New All-Time Player Peak On Steam After 1.6 Update

Just got the game on PS5 this week.

1.6 ended up being a little larger in scope than originally planned. I'm done adding major new content to it now, though, and it's in a bug-fixing and polishing phase until it's ready for release. Thx for your patience. It'll be fun to see everyone play it!

He also replied to a user saying it will absolutely be releasing this year!

"The Bustling Valley is a curated modlist designed for a bigger Stardew Valley experience. It includes new villages, new NPCs, and of course a farming expansion."

This is a huge modlist, installed near hands free using wabbajack. If you are fidgeting while waiting for the new update, this will give you a whole new world to play in the meantime.

It is an enormous extension of nearly every element. Enjoy!

I know the tweet is already a day old, but I thought I share it anyway since no one else posted it. Super excited for the new update. Concerned Ape is really spoiling us.

I'm on year two and winter is approaching (fall 25). I didn't really like last winter because it felt very long. What do you do during those times? Do you skip some days by going to bed right after waking up? Do you fish and mine like hell?

The giveaway has ended and the winner is: [email protected]. Congratulations! Have fun with the game!

Thank you all for all the funny jokes!

Hello fellow SV fans. Every year I give away 1 Steam key for Stardew Valley to a random person. Past years it was someone from the Steam SV forum or someone from the comments section on a random YouTube video about SV. This year, since i migrated from reddit to Lemmy, I decided to do the giveaway here on this community.

To enter the giveaway just leave a farming-related joke as a top-level-comment under this post. Your Lemmy account must be at least one week old at the time of the drawing (18.11.23).

Please don't post offensive, racist, trans- or homophobic jokes.

The key can be redeemed globally on Steam (PC).

Doesn't matter if you already own the game, maybe you know someone you could gift it to. Or maybe you own it on console but want to play on PC also.

The winning comment will be chosen randomly on Saturday, 18. November, 18:00 UTC.

Good Luck!

!

Hopefully Haunted Chocolatier content is also welcome here!

Why do you betray Pierre? Why do you hate supporting local economies? How do you sleep at night?

ConcernedApe is writing a Stardew cookbook! Release date says April 16 2024. I wonder if all the recipes will be vegetarian like in the game?

Hey folks,

Our vegan neighbors on the canvas keep erasing our star fruit, we'd appreciate your support helping keep it alive!

I'm trying to make a chicken but it's a big task to do solo, any helping hands?

I've tried to become more connected with my community by going to activities around Halloween or Christmas time, or just general activities with the people I associate with. I just wish--and I know this is going to sound weird--there were more real people like Lewis the Mayor who organize community events in real life where I can take my family and participate in holidays with the community.

I'm going to try and do more things like that with my family and our friends, I've always loved the community feel that Stardew emulates. I want that for my family.

Hi I've been gradually finishing my first and only-main farm, and wanted to share :-) It started as the central plaza and fish ponds (since I came to love fishing!) and grew from there. I was going to get all-seasons screenshots and post together, but that's going soo slowly; and, hey, content!

Hope you like it! I think there's a little bit of just about everything there, and if you look closely you can see me sitting on a bench enjoying the flower garden. It's been single player until right at the end I added the 'guest lodges' to share with family and friends. I love how well they fit in places I hadn't planned!

Just purchased the game on Switch and look what I found on my first day. Year 6 on PC, no luck so far.

There's going to be a new festival in 1.6! Along with more dialogue, new items, secrets, and "???" whatever that means. Also previously confirmed was an iridium scythe and big updates that are supposed to make modding the game easier.

For this playthrough I'm going for Shane for the first time, and loving it! That character development 😍 Although this run I've been trying to befriend villagers more and Sebastian is starting to look appealing too.

Who are your go-tos? Would you go for someone different in another playthrough?

This probably isn't new to most of you, but alas:

If you want to place furniture and rotate it, select it in your bag as you usually would and then use the right stick to place it. A small cursor will appear and while the furniture is selected, it will show up underneath it. Then you can rotate it using the 'x' button (on PS5, there will probably be similar buttons on other consoles) and place it the way you like.

I recently started my first playthrough on console and this bugged me quite a bit. So hopefully this is useful to some of you.

Sorry for inflicting this on everyone, but not sorry enough to not post it.

Well, that's the tomato debate settled, then.

I love this game so much. The music is so good that even if concerned ape had only done the music then id still consider him extremely talented

Sorry bout the low quality picture.

I've owned SV for years and never bothered to play with mods. I'm mainly looking for QoL mods but I'm open to trying anything you think is good!

What mods do you play with? Are there any you can't go without?

I call her mommy

This is my 6th or so play-through and each time I would work steadily to completely clear my farm so I could maximize the amount of grass that spreads for future animal hay. This time I did four corners (single player), left one corner neglected, and this happened! I then read how it works on the wiki and I understand why I never got them before haha. I am sooooo excited.

Hey y’all! I just started a new farm on my Steam Deck. Anyone have any tips for starting out strong? Like a “best practices” list? Thanks!
