Stardew Valley

March 2025

Revisiting my first farm to finally play Ginger Island and all the post-1.4 content that I never got around to. It’s been fun to discover new things and experience all these QOL upgrades.

A busy Stardew Valley farm in the fall, featuring: a bunch of animal buildings in one corner, a slime hut and enclosure, a bunch of beehouses next to the greenhouse, some junimo hut crop sections, and a bunch of additional sheds.

October 2021

I’ve abandoned my farm, my crops, and my wife. I logged in a couple of times to run around and be confused, and win the grange display contest.

I also started a new farm (my second one!) which sucked up all my attention again. It was surprisingly replayable, as I was focused on optimizing all my time and making as much money as soon as possible. I’m in year 2 winter now and am rich enough that I can chill out.

I also looked back at my first farm to compare my progress and I’m surprised by how much further I’ve progressed in my second farm, now that I know exactly what I’m doing.
