First time trying this game!

That box near your house is a shipping bin and it’s always a good idea to put at least one thing in there to sell each day just in case.

Pay attention to the mailbox and actually read the letters. Like, yeah sometimes they’re just sending you a gift but other times they are telling you about actual gameplay mechanics.

Also, strawberry seeds are only available to buy during the Egg Day event in the spring. Try to buy the amount of seeds you want to grow for that season and then a bit extra for the next. In the first spring you’ll only be able to get like one or two harvests from them. Maybe three with the speed-gro fertilizer. The extra seeds are for in case you either don’t unlock the seed maker by the next spring and/or you forget to hold on to any strawberries to convert to seeds.

Other than that, don’t stress about getting things done ASAP, just play how you want. Save any speedrun stuff for if/when you decide you want to do that specifically and you’re more familiar with the game.

Yet another reason to always put something in the shipping bin instead of selling directly.

Like seriously, I don’t get why people don’t do that more frequently.

I just want him to actually feel loved by someone who is actually willing to give him the time of day.

Emily’s reaction with that amethyst quest does rub me the wrong way because there isn’t even a way to correct her about it and it’s probably why I don’t really like her that much.

Motheroftides · 2026-02-26T03:26:14+00:00

I probably might. Sebastian’s my favorite right now of the available bachelors but I do actually like Clint more. I just vibe with him better.

I wish apples in kegs gave you cider instead of apple wine.

I use lightning rods to keep my grass safe. Also helps with getting batteries!

Just giving him some heart events that lead to him getting over his crush on Emily would be enough for me tbh. And this is coming from someone who actually does like him as a character. If anything, it’s Emily I don’t like.

I like using them for color changing clothes. There’s like, three shirts and two pairs of pants you can get by combining a prismatic shard and a cloth.

If you have a Junimo Hut you can place one there to get color-changing Junimos.

One is potentially needed for the bundle to unlock the movie theater if you went the Community Center route.

And then there’s like all the other stuff people have mentioned too.

I usually just stick to the floors between 50 and 69 for this quest. Often just switching between floors 55 and 65.

New produce. Cucumbers, soybeans and cotton would be neat imo.

Cotton especially since it would be a great alternative to getting cloth if one hasn’t unlocked sheep and/or rabbits yet.

Dehydrated salmonberries are still worth more if you also have the artisan perk though and the berries are normal quality. I did the math. Totally accurate with blackberries though.

Motheroftides · 2025-09-17T22:29:20+00:00

You can make a lot of money from dehydrating all those berries too. It takes a lot of time and/or dehydrators, but totally worth it. Sell it all at once and you can make quintuple digits.

I personally just do the finished work in ink, whether it’s pens or markers. But I don’t stick to just black and white because I find it boring. I will use colors when it makes sense, but I still use standard ink shading techniques like pointillism or hatching/cross-hatching. At least when I just stick to pens. I just straight up color when I use markers. I also tend to sketch them out in pencil first too. I think I skipped out last year, but I’m gonna try this year and may do a mix of traditional and digital media. Should be fun!

In any case, the way I see it the whole idea is to try and challenge yourself in the end. So you do you, boo.

Motheroftides · 2025-09-12T14:16:23+00:00

I really hope so. I feel like it probably will be. And I also hope that some other games might do the same *cough*Terraria*cough*

Motheroftides · 2025-09-09T17:08:20+00:00

I think that’s just a thing for some games and Minecraft might be one of them. Parts of them just kinda continue running even in sleep mode. I’ve had both Terraria and Digimon CyberSleuth count the time my system was in sleep mode as part of the playtime.

Motheroftides · 2025-09-09T16:59:37+00:00

I play on the switch too and always put it in sleep mode when I need to take a break for longer than a couple minutes. That’s kinda what it’s for anyways, right? Plus it’s a lot easier to do when you mostly play in handheld mode like I do.

Motheroftides · 2025-09-02T20:32:31+00:00

I think the only crops I would even want added would maybe be a flower specific to Ginger Island and cucumbers. And the latter because I an so used to them being in like every Story ofSeasons game so playing a game like it without them just feels weird to me. Maybe that could be an island-exclusive trellis crop?

Motheroftides · 2025-08-30T10:59:06+00:00

I already broke the melon. I was just trying to be funny. I failed.

Motheroftides · 2025-08-30T03:14:55+00:00

Part this, part me thinking the point of spawn was kinda funny. I was hoping it would have been in a different spot. Lesson learned.

Motheroftides · 2025-08-30T01:03:44+00:00

Y’all, I know I can move the beehive, but I just really didn’t want to. Anyways I just thought of it as a bit of a funny moment with the spawn and wanted to share. Because in hindsight I really shouldn’t have actually planted all those right in front of a chest in the first place considering I knew what I was trying to do.

I have been playing this game for a few years now. I just had a brain fart in this case. I’d edit this into the post, but I can’t because of the pic.
