As many of you know, for the past couple of weeks there has been an issue with multiplayer on Mac. The issue was not a bug in Stardew Valley’s code (there hasn’t been a Stardew Valley update since early this year, so nothing could have changed), but instead was an “authentication” issue having to do with the PC platforms (Steam & GOG). This happened because of a strange and very specific issue with a recent software update on one of those platforms. Fortunately, we were in communication with them right away, and with their help, we’ve discovered a way to resolve the issue. If you notice an update on Steam, that’s what it is. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

As always, thanks for playing Stardew Valley.

I think playing with more than 4 is a lot of fun. The only crash I am certain of, is if you try to go to the movie theater with more than 4 people at once (if you just go in batches of 4 it's fine). Other than that, there might be a few odd visual things, like people not lined up right at the flower dance.

That's great, I'm glad you're having fun and it's keeping you and your nephew close. I also started a group farm with some friends about a year ago and we've played once a week since then. It's been fun, we're almost finished with the entire game though. Enjoy it!

Hello everyone,

It has come to my attention that streamers on Twitch and Youtube and elsewhere are uncertain about what content they are allowed to monetize when it comes to streaming Stardew Valley.

My thoughts are very simple: You can feel free to play Stardew Valley on your streams and videos and also to monetize those streams and videos. That pretty much sums it up.

I want Stardew Valley to bring people together. I don’t want anyone to be anxious about playing and sharing footage of the game. Use your best judgement and have fun.

Thanks a bunch for playing and supporting Stardew Valley.

– Ape

Terraria has a lot of very very similar art, and starbound. It's been awhile since I've looked at what's what, company and licensing wise but....

No, I drew everything in Stardew Valley from scratch

Playstation players,

You may have noticed a new update for Stardew Valley. It’s very a small update that fixes some bugs (1.5.4.2):

– Fixed crashes in map transitions.

– Fixed crashes playing online with larger farms.

– Fixed memory leak from screenshot feature.

– Fixed graphics memory leak in split screen.

– Fixed crash in bobber bar when fishing.

– Fixed crash in journal for some quests.

– Fixed a multiplayer crash during disconnection.

– Fixed crash in Skull Cave.

This patch will also come to other consoles soon. Thanks for playing Stardew Valley

This could be due to a few things:

Something is blocking the connection between you and your bf. This could be a firewall, antivirus, bad internet connection, etc. Please make sure there's nothing like this causing it.
There could be an issue with the authentication servers (run by GOG), that is used to connect all stardew PC multiplayer games. There is no definite way to solve this, but trying multiple times, signing in and out of steam, and even changing your steam username have all been reported to help.

Are you using a VPN?

Unfortunately I don't have control over this, these videos are uploaded by TuneCore, which is the music "distributor" I use to get the soundtrack on Spotify, iTunes, etc.

I reached out to them once, asking if they could at least enable comments on these videos but they can't.

The entire stardew OST is uploaded to Youtube elsewhere though, if you just type in "Stardew OST" you should be able to find it
