But it does have a tendency to get tedious when you’ve played it for eons.
There’s only so many slimes you can whack or spots you can plow before you wish there was an automatic way to do things.
Enter this list!
We’ve organized a collection of QoL mods (in no particular order) that improve the quality of life in Pelican Town through automation, little switches, or new gameplay mechanics.
Sometimes a graphic change can make all the difference in the world.
This mod recolors Pelican Town for the better, taking out some of the yellow tones to make the outdoors look more beautiful and vibrant. It’ll make the game feel like new!
By pressing F1, you can look up anything that’s under your cursor to see information like:
Hearts
Daily gifts
How long a crop will need before it can be harvested
Really anything!
This mod would be especially great if you farm a lot, since you can see the length of time for crop harvesting.
If you know you’re due for another rain and you only need one more day of watering before the season is up, you can just leave it – no need to bust out the annoying watering can!
Sometimes I wish that you could set up a bunch of ore to be smelted instead of standing around waiting.
Well now you can, with the Automate mod.
Simply place a chest beside a furnace, and it’ll use the raw ingredients to produce ingot after ingot. And this isn’t limited to just furnaces, either!
This even works with other crafting machines, such as the recycling machine.
I must be a noob, because I just don’t understand how people reach level 100 in the Skull Cavern without using staircases.
Those little flying snake things just get me every time!
This mod makes it so that there’s an elevator in the cavern, the same as there is in the mines.
It’s a really clever addition that saves a lot of time. So if you aren’t so into the gritty adventuring as some others, it’s definitely worth a download.
Don’t you hate it when you go to harvest some milk and you have to click through a notification screen telling you that you’ve already milked that cow?
Take the guesswork out with this nifty mod!
It tells you when animals have products ready to harvest the same way other things do, like the preserves barrel or the wine cask.
It also totally prevents any failed attempts to milk or shear!
This mod allows you to set a birthday for the player character in Stardew. You’ll get letters from your parents, birthday gifts from your friends, and have a great day!
I don’t care how many upgrades the canon game has:
There will never be enough backpack slots.
This mod comes a little closer though, with a grand total of 48.
That’s an extra row, for those of you at home counting. It’s definitely a helpful little mod to have if you’re anything like me (that is to say, a total pack mule!)
