I bought this game impulsively when I was sick two days ago and I love it. This guide is very helpful.

I started yesterday and I SWEAR I SAW THE TUTORIAL/INTRO but I still managed to think the chest next to the mailbox was just MY chest and I apparently sold everything 😂

What has helped me as a beginner is upgrading my watering can in the winter because I couldn’t plant anything. My pet was without water for a couple days but he’s still alive and well :)

Fishing is always the main thing I focus on at the start of the game, it's really nice, easy, early money. (I'm also a massive sucker for any fishing minigame)

The text box you have added for your commentary is honestly an 11/10 idea and execution. Looks awesome and fits in seamlessly. It is a little small though, which makes it a little hard to read

Some Extra Tips: Try to Keep one of every crop you can grow. It helps with quest later on, especially ones that you get late in a month when you can't grow it in time. Do quest when possible, they pay a extra value and it gives friendship. When playing with online the beds can be laid (stood) in to restore energy. You don't even need to sleep (in fact don't because if everyone does it ends the day). There is no shame using the wiki's. People have collected the data so other can knkw where the villagers are at any time, what they like, and any special events with them. (Like what day they go to the doctor.) Also info on when you can get any items. Remember peiers shop is closed on Wednesdays The spring foragable flower is a universal like (excluding clint), so they make great gifts. It is possible to ask people to the spring dance year 1, you just need 5 hearts.The best way is to target a person with a birthday before the dance. I beleive I have personally had Haley and Shane at 5 hearts before the dance before. Final Tip, get two two hearts with Marnie for a quest that comes fairly early on from the Mayor.

Great video! I just bought Stardew in the search for a relaxing laid back game, and these tips will definitely help to calm the part of my brain that yells at me constantly to figure out how to be more efficient. I also really enjoy your voice and manner of speaking, it kinda suits the chill vibe Stardew has. Would love to see more longform videos in the future

A really useful tip is that you can place objects outside your farm, as long as its not in any NPCs way. Early game you can put chests down at your preferred fishing spots, which makes fishing way more convenient, or in the entrance to the mines. You can even put your smelters in there Slightly later (as early as midsummer of year 1) you can create massive tree plantations near the railway, or in the desert once you have the bus repaired. Later still you can basically decorate the entire town and valley according to your whims, and spread a lot of your industrial production into less travelled areas of the valley You can check the wiki for good safe spots for chests, but on one of the islands in the mountain lake or just behind the bait barrel next to Willys shop are excellent for fishing.

I found you in tiktok and I like your style of videos! Keep it up 😊

Thank you for this guide. I was overwhelmed so I haven't touched the game again. But now, I feel like it's okay to discover what works for me. Thank you ♡

As someone who has 100+ hrs some of the tips helped a little bit

first stardew valley video I looked up as a new player! really enjoyed this and subbing - hope to see more :) going to restart my save I think

Great video 😊👍. I'm about to start my first playthrough so this helps.

I dont play this game anymore but I still watch your videos! That’s really fun

Thank you so much for this! It really helps!

So peaceful and relaxing, hope to see more videos from you 😄

Nice little video, good tips and info, I play this game right now (takin a break lol) the things I find that help the stores can sell large amounts of the ores and resources for building, so if you can sell a lot you can buy all the wood,stone,coal and ores as needed. He hardest was iridium ores, but then completing the grandfather's shrine saves on forced trips into skull caverns, later the ores and such are fairly easy to come by. The way this game plays, there is no reason to worry about progression, eventually things add up as you play. The relationships with townsfolk can be done in the saloon and later on you can focus on them when your farm is set the way you feel is good. The saloon is great, allows you to buy favorites to give to the ones who visit and you can add a chest to store extra items for gifting. The biggest reason to get to know npc's is the food recipes they can give, some are really helpful.

Amazing video ^^ I'm just beginning after not having played it for five years lol this was super helpful

This was really helpful. Thanks 🙏

These are great tips and I love the text box! ❤

Thanks for this! Ive been meaning to go back to stardew after like 2 years but ive always felt like theres just too much stuff to do there haha but now im slowly getting the motivation to go back

I love stardew! Love the tips

Sweet tips video 🎉 very helpful ❤

Great Job!!

Having your captions in a Stardew Valley text box is super cool!

The effort put into this video is outstannding!! Well done, subscribed x

very helpful for a newbie, thanks!

Great help! My wife and I just started our first farm two days ago, and you’re correct, early-on fishing is ass 😂

Have not played in 3 years.. looking to get back into it and this was very helpful !!

me watching this while I have 400+ hours on game because I'm obsessed with the game and you have soft, relaxing voice and great content

Awesome guide, thanks

I took me over 10 years to archive perfection because I wasn't interested in completing it at first

Thank you for this guide, my husband just bought this game for me!!! 10 out of 10 guide!!!

Super helpful! I just made it to year 2 but I like never mined, fished, or made friends 😅 I just farmed all day everyday. I’m starting a new game today with the idea of mixing it up and doing all the things.

6:32 the golden scroll also shakes when you’re in your inv and hover over an item that needs to be turned in for an unfinished bundle

This was very helpful for me as i just started playing!

Awesome vid!

I love your content sm

Thank u . this was great.

Thanks mate!

This is good, I like this 👍

Great video!

I don’t really like stardew valley but I do like watching your shorts

Useful. I'm about to dive into the game, and really only want to know enough at this point to not be an utter failure, so I'm consuming videos like this. But beyond that, I can tell we probably share similar gaming philosophies.

I got stardew and had to put it down cause I understood nothing, it was so frustrating and I was like why dont they teach you! And then I found the wiki and was like maybe I'll try it again😂 I'm gonna try it again 🎉 I also love your channel.

I have so much respect for how much effort you put into this video. I think you captured the heart of the game flawlessly. Great video 💚

4:43 It would surprise you for how many seasons I didn't craft sprinklers on my first playthrow.

Tbh, for fishing, just fish at the mountain lake, every catch is easy up there during spring so use any free down time to fish there and get used to it so by summer you'll have a good hang plus at least 5 levels so a bigger bar.

I ended up spending 10 years in my min save mostly because I kept spending all my money on upgrades rather then scaling up my farm I got the community center I think year 3 and then later I decided to 100% just to get all trophies before possibly getting into moding it. also 6:20 did not know that, super glad I pulled up this video on my recommended because that is such a quality of life thing.

Thank you for tip 10. Everyone keeps telling me to go fishing in year 1...but it's so hard when I can't catch the fish. Yes, I land the hit, but can't beat the mini game. I actually took to the mines to get money instead. Things got better with fishing, but I think it had to do with me just being calmer and feeling secure with my time and resources. And finding out I could land fish with the training rod. 🤣

Great video

As someone who has 5 minutes in game, those tips were usefull

Another useful tip regarding the Community Center items is that said items make the scroll wiggle when hovering over them.

You can move the TV (just left click with an empty inventory slot). I put mine right next to my bed, so I can use it immidately afyer waking up.

8. Yeah I'm on day 2. This really helped me enjoy the game more, its too stressful to think I need to max efficiency and production into every single day when I have no clue what I'm doing

HOW DO YOU DO THE SUBTITLES OML IM IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When i first started playing, i didnt know the elevator existed

I love Harvest Moon, so this game seemed like a good buy, but I need some help. So thank you for this guide.

i hope you make more videos like this

Fishing is my favorite thing to do. Have about 35hrs in so far and I've hit 6k gold in 1 day so far. Still looking for one of those rainbow rocks

I sometimes like to play with different approaches to the first season or two.

The bundle icon shakes when you are hovering over an item that is needed in the community center too

Critique: 1] epic strategy for beginners ✔ (getting more perfect catches/exp. buffed, working on technique/mechanics, building confidence, bar is set to lvl 5 length, correction: buy fiberglass rod at lvl 5 ). Fish on rainy days for rare/required fish for cc completion, open treasure chests while fishing for a jump on resources (mine), free bait, and artifacts. Make a crabpot... free trash to recycle, cc completion, and food source (recipes). 2] make the choice: sell only clay (farming), high quality (stacked) fish OR USE IT FOR FOOD in the mine. Make a chest for fishing (day 2) and another for mine "lobby" (day 5). Regular fish should be saved for sashimi or emergency food. Forageables (non-"cc") should be sold, support initial setup on farm/fish days (week 1)/used for making seasonal seeds. SELL HOLLY. 3] move tv/bed near the door, gate your pet to prevent deaths at 02:00 (easier petting), fortune (rainy/bad luck -> fish, pyramid/stardrop -> mine (day 5+)), get recipes -> open doors for the future! 4] Upgrade tools (Clint) AFTER DOING THE ACTION CONNECTED TO THE TOOL (or if you know you are fishing the next day (upgrade pickaxe), cleared trees on farm? (upgrade axe), hoe on (Sat.)) 5] carry a chest with you is GOOD BEHAVIOR, sell what you don't KEEP, beware of npc pathing (destroys crafted/placed items), wood -> buildings(Jodi)/house upgrades (1000+), chests (50), bridge at beach (300), machines/devices. 6] skipping days is for speedrunners (streamers), fill your days with activities (if you have resources/energy), spa ✔ ✅ 7] cc (or Joja path), quest board, emergencies happen! Fyi, use the greenhouse/Ginger Island/sheds, they help! 8] do it right (week 1), chose paths after that -> live with the responsibility, have fun! 😅 9] beware of friendship degradation (spouse/villager 1 ❤ to max (10/14)), be polite to them (trash diving, attacking them, heart events, birthdays, 2 gifts/week, courtesy chit-chat) 10] choice is choice, take responsibility! Agreed with format, language, and presentation. Good job!

This is a very nicely done guide. ❤

Ohhh so there’s no time limit cause tbh I’ve just been mining and farming and haven’t rly touched the CC stuff 😅 I’m just enjoying the mining and farming aspects of the game lol (new player)

I may be a bit late, but anyway Here's my tip If you have in your inventory anythung needed in bundles, the button to show them will sign you when hover your cursor on that item I wish I knew it sooner, hope I helped someone ❤

On my first save file ever, I sold over 400-500 fiber because I was broke 😭

Right before #8 I said this is so stressful then she said don't stress that much haha

Place chests somewhere near the exit to bus stop Imagine where u gonna place woekbench, chest around it and can access all yhe chest

Is this game coop? I’m on it solo. Curious if we can play together lol

I just started the game today and I have no idea where I go to mine. 😅

I got rid of the TV on my first day, I thought it was just deco 😅

I would add: ALWAYS go to the traveling cart on Fridays and Sundays. I've never completed CC without traveling cart luck.

I made the mistake using the box next to the house. I thought it was a storage box when i first started.

What skin colour number do you have?

7:40 I never had 100% perfection in the game and I think that I never will reach it because I prefer to play very relaxed. 😎

cute video 😍

skipping day is only good if you're speed runner

Reminds me of harvest moon

Games just to hard feel like I’ve got nothing done 😢 in winter and still broke. Almost ready to rage quit

I'm a new player and I get annoyed about depleting my energy, not being able to forage enough to keep me going and so I'd sleep early, but maybe I'll try not to do that.

Ohhhh i looove the poor quality microphone. That's how you know it's a legit tutorial

You have a very sweet voice

I spent so much time courting Haley just to get rejected at the dance...

No dammit I want a rigid schedule. 😊

#11 DON'T CHOOSE THE BEACH FARM ypu can't put sprinkler on it 😭😭

Noice

My favourite F words

Howwww do y’all know these things 😂😂 (I’m on day 2, I know hahaha)

I hope I’m not the only one who is confused about where to go even with the map💀

JunimoB, let’s play together

love that suck hours away

I'll just stick to good ol' Farming Simulator 19. I don't need relationships, I need to produce, not in a small garden, but on the fields, and most importantly.....I DON'T NEED WIFE, I NEED TRACTOR.

This sounds exactly like the other girl Mina or whatever. Second channel?

Spoiler alert would have been nice 😔 didn't mean to see all those end game achievements

Is it worth it to pay for the game? did you regret purchasing it or was it worth it?

Honestly… He will still care about digital achievements? Like 100% in a game, woo hoo you gained nothing. Nobody bothers to look at somebody’s profile and be like “oh man they 100% game how cool “nobody gives a shit.

BIG TIP OF THE DAY: Once you've completed everything you've wanted to, SLEEP AWAY WEEKS OF TIME, you'll get your money faster and it is so so so much faster paced. Time doesn't actually mean anything! This tip is best once you have a greenhouse full of sprinklers and a farm full of crops and sprinklers!!!

This is not begginer guide!!! You talk about fishing but no explanation how it works. Same with mining - i dont know where to mine! I dont know how to recognize if there is autumn or spring and other basic things. Than i look at youtoube and see tens of video like this - so called beginers guide from people playing hundreds hours in game and knowing nothing about beginning. You juse waste our time!!! RENAME IT!

I pirated this game , and it is ok. nothing i would buy but for a few days anyway i'll check it out. most likely i'll delete this game. This game kinda blows !
