I am desperate at this point, I feel like I've tried all the fixes on the internet so here I am. I've been playing modded Stardew with some of my friends, but one day, multiplayer stopped connecting. We've tried it without the mods, and are still struggling, so it's not a mod issue. In...

I already posted but I got no replies so here we go again i guess.. I already deleted and reinstalled but this is what happened. I don't know as to why it bugged out really. I suspect it's my own phone but I really don't know. The only thing that would somewhat help is if I use full screen...

Hello, I need help fixing my game. I have over 300 hours on the game and have never had an issue until today. When playing my game suddenly it will begin to lag and the gameplay becomes delayed by around 1 second. I've scoured the internet and found some threads on how to fix this issue and...

Hi, I just downloaded Stardew Valley for the first time to my laptop from my XBOX Games Pass. The screen seems to be too small somehow and it makes it hard for me to see. The below screenshots were taken in full-screen mode. Is there a way to make the character creator bigger? Everything I've...

For some reason when I play the game my cursor goes to an upper left corner of my screen and stays there, what`s strange is that it only happens when I play stardew. When I play any other game everything is fine, and also when I open inventory. When I close the inventory or open settings my...

I was playing the game normally yesterday, finally had enough saved up money for the furniture catalogue and went to town. This morning tho, when I tried to open my save file the game would just crash after loading. I've spent about 200 hours~ on this save alone and it would really suck to lose...

Hello! I’ve seen this post a few times before regarding this “same” type of bug, so I apologize, but I just can’t seem to be able to fix my problem with those forums, YouTube videos, or anything, really. My game won’t launch when I click it and I haven’t been able to play the game for more...
