Playing the switch version, about 8 in game days in, doing some crops but not sure what else I should be doing, mainly interacting with other characters. What advice can you give me?

I have 800 hours in the game, played through many times with perfection.

Save at least 2 of everything. Save 5 of gold star veggies and fruits along with some unstarred.

Make field snacks and pop them like Skittles. Plan your day a bit, time is ticking.

Fishing skill first IMO, blast that as much as you can and sell as much as you can.

There is so much to do, as you find things and progress there will be more and more things.

Buy strawberries in year 1 at the egg festival. As many as you can. Year two, plant them as beginning of spring. Profit.

Also have fun, don't let the days or time stress you out.

Uhh, I fucked up, got the strawberries but planted them the night after the festival :neocat_shocked:

Ha! That works, you just don't get as much money from them because it's late In the season.

I love playing stardew.

Yea, I got one streawberru harvest, might get a second if I'm lucky. Just had the flower dance. Progressing on the guild initiation

Depending on how serious you want to take it. There is a website for stardew predictions, stardew checkup to help you know what's missing, and a tool for planting to know when to harvest.

Lots of tools to plan.

I also keep a notepad open but I make notes. Important birthdays, which rarecrows I have, crop numbers and things needed, fish in looking for in particular seasons and weather.

I set my goals and work towards them.
