Stardew Valley 1.6 is upon us - and so are several follow-up patches with various bug fixes and quality-of-life upgrades. The latest is 1.6.3, and while the patch notes are very difficult to read, they do include some notable goodies.
Seriously, I'm not sure if it's the font, the color, or some weird quirk of Twitter's image compression, but this tweet is about to send me to the optometrist.
Luckily, the big change - "you can now access Clint's shop and geode service while your tool is being upgraded" - was already detailed a few days ago, but there's lots more here.
1.6.3 now available on PC pic.twitter.com/x9RHCQtJWtMarch 27, 2024 For example, "harvesting moss now grants 1 foraging exp per moss," "adult mossy green rain trees boost the moss growth rate of nearby trees," and there have been further "adjustments to moss growth," so that it "grows slower on sunny summer days." Big news for my moss-heads out there.
There are also several bug fixes, including one that "was causing excess trash to be fished" - that'll surely be a relief if you've been grinding the fishing minigame.
