A few corrections offered by the lovely, lovely commenters: - 2 of these assets are in the game, the answering machine is used when you call a store when it’s closed, and the weird dancing egg thing is in Leah’s art exhibit! - The image of Robin angry on the phone is actually Leah! It’s still unused, as it’s an old design of her that looks a bit more like Robin. - The sprites at 9:35 are used in Krobus’ 14 heart cutscene. I didn’t even know he had a 14 heart cutscene lol
The game developed over Concerned Ape's skills improving in every aspect. As an artist I can literally feel the nostalgia specially when watching the design development 😍
think the "angry robin on the phone" sprite is actually an early version of leah! her 4 heart event is her having a heated argument over the phone with her ex
That there is dialog for Pam and Penny should they see a movie together, but they never can is totally in line with their relationship dynamic overall and kinda sad
They can see a movie together, but when other people go to the movies you can’t talk to them afterwards, it just says that they’re engaging in lively conversation about the movie
I'm pretty new to the game, but mobile via Apple Arcade, so what is their dynamic? I started a second farm because the first kept crashing, and I wanted to start over anyway, so I walked into Pam's house to greet her, but Penny was there washing dishes. When I returned, Pam was there and so cross with me. I'm wondering what's happening with her here. Is it the booze or what? Edited: I just heard him say they are family wow😮
Yeah, I just got that yesterday. Didn’t realize it was a rarity because I think I’ve seen it in a previous play through too. I wonder what triggers it…?
Wow, watching the evolution you can tell that Concerned Ape worked so hard on this and really poured his heart and soul into it. I can't wait for Haunted Chocolatier! It's gonna be epic. Also, if you want to see the Penny dialogue, it is really easy to invite Pam and Penny in multiplayer.
Pam and Penny dialog is absolutely possible if you play multi player and one player invites Penny and another invites Pam. The potato bouncy GIF is one of Leah's sculptures from her art show in town. A heart scene event.
Seeing this video I just realized that Stardew Valley Expanded actually used a lot of concepts from early versions of the game (Elliot's sprite, Linus's backstory, Martin's character and sprite), that's cool
easy way to get more into the game from stuff that was cut and still in the files. I do wish someone would bring Linus backstory with the sprite (last I saw it, Linus just speaks it no new sprites)
More than just that. I'm playing it now and they used the cursed prairie king machines sprite as part of the stardrop inn (its not useable, far as I can tell) I got a 'yeti tooth' weapon dropped in the mines too. If you have the additional mod 'East Scarp' installed, you can even meet one of the mer folk (the sea monster' you see in Krobus's 14th heart event, if you ask him to move in with you.
I like that he looks like he’s in his mid-older 30s, but that’s probably because I’m almost 30 LOL. My tastes shifted as I got older, though I still appreciate a good twink 👍🏼
the extended Intro with the bus interior always feels like some weird fever dream, because everytime I start a new save I'd bet the scene is still there.
Something else that wasn't mentioned: weapons originally had a "Precision" stat, which would determine how often an attack with that weapon would outright miss (low Precision = more misses). There are actually a couple of remnants of this in the final game: there's the "Miss" graphic when you attack a downed mummy, and there's the Topaz Ring which is supposed to boost Precision, but ends up being 100% worthless because of the stat being taken out.
The gif at 6:55 is one of leah's 'sculptures'. It appears in her 8 hearth event if you chose the 'why don't you have an art show in town?' dialouge in the 2nd part of her 2 hearth event. You can only trigger the 2nd part of her 2 hearth event if you've chosen anything but '(creepy) can I have a kiss?' In the 1st part of her 2 heartn event. So you really have to 'play your cards correctly'.
I think Stardew Valley ended up with a perfect art style that acts as enough of a throwback to the old Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons games, but with its own, Western cartoon inspired flavour. It is neat to see what past prototype art looked like though.
The romanceable villager weapons were made available in 1.6! I bought Haley's curling iron from her booth at the desert festival. Turns out it's also a complete reskin of the obsidian edge, but still cool that you can get them now. I had no idea it was cut content before.
i wonder if the cursed prairie king arcade system would like put you inside of the game and you'd have to fight the enemies off with your weapons like in the mines
as an artist myself, i understand why CA made the changes that he did to the character designs. however on that same note, SEBASTIAN'S FIRST DESIGN WAS PERFECT HE WAS PERFECT
Man the game really looked like a late 2000s web browser game Edit: The wizard and Linus seemingly being friends just proves that Linus is Yoba in a mortal form to view his people.
The luck skill is still technically in the game! It's not displayed in the UI anywhere, and any time you would otherwise gain experience toward leveling it up, that gain is zeroed out. Food (and equipment, etc.) that buffs luck actually adds to that skill, mechanically. So, you can imagine what it might be like to have a "luck skill" you could level up. It's like having a huge, full-time luck buff. The nature of it made reimplementing it as a mod (e.g. spachechase0's luck skill mod) easier than it would otherwise have been.
7:00 that is one of Leah's sculptures. It is called "Eggheads" in the game. You see it if you tell Leah to do the art show in her 2 heart cutscene. It shows up in her 8 heart scene
I could swear the cowboy boots or at least their appearance were in the game. Not as an equippable item but as a sprite change when tailoring other boots or something.
I could've swore I saw it on the stardew wiki tailoring page. I was trying to look up how to craft a veil and I thought I saw it when trying to pick shoes to match.
Since Haunted Chocolatier will habe bosses, maybe it'll bring back the Shadow King? It could get you in the good graces of the shadow people and dwarves and get you access to some primo ingredients.
@@wallamazoo01she was the first person I married I loved how wacky she is and I loved her parrot cut scene and she arguably had the best spouse room and loves crystals she’s def my girl but I married Abigail in my 2nd play through
If Emily was a little bit normal, then I think her initial design would be better, but considering Emily wacky event and story, I think the current design suits her way better.
I will forever be upset about the loss of Elliotts earring I absolutely love the man but Man It's so painful playing on switch especially when I have the mod that reverts it back on my pc
Pierre also has dialogue, if you get behind his stand (at the flower dance I think) he tells you that you shouldn't be back there and not to touch anything
@@magmamusic2348 just walk behind the the shops towards him, I do it first year when i normally accidentally forget to talk to him and hes still a stranger to me who sells me my seeds
I bet the cursed cabinet @9:00 is a reference to Polybius, a fairly popular urban legend here in the pacific northwestern U.S. (where concernedape [and myself] are from.) Supposedly in the early 80s an arcade cabinet popped up in arcades around Portland, Oregon, and apparently the game was some kind of CIA experiment lol. Wouldn't surprise me if a video game nerd from Seattle wanted to pay homage to Polybius
I remember seeing a video talking about how Linus would share his story to you at a certain amount of hearts about how he was born into a rich family but didn’t want to live like this and when was older came to Stardew Valley to live that simple life. At least, that’s what I remember; haven’t watched the video explaining this for a while so this might be somewhat inaccurate.
It's also a dialogue with Welwick in Stardew Valley Fair that says our charcter will fight agains a Giant Dark force, maybe it's a reference to the Dark King.
I got one: There are extra floors in the volcano. I haven’t found the last one yet, but I know it’s over 300 Million. It likely goes up to the integer limit. To put that in perspective, skull cavern only has 77257 floors before you end up in the quarry. You can access the volcano floors by running the game with sampi and typing “debug volcano 300000000” (no quotes)
There are Coal Goblin sprites that we're unimplemented. It seems that you may have randomly found a goblin settlement in the mines. There is also a Dwarf King, looks like he became the volcano dwarf. Marcello (from Harveys balloon event) has a full sprite sheet.
I heard recently that the game was going to have a whole dwarf or goblin world underground and levels, bosses, shops etc. but he took it out because he thought it took away from the focus of the game. Not sure if it’s true or not, but that would have been so much fun!
Wow that's so cool, had no idea so much stuff was pulled out. Can tell a lot has inspired mods, but would love to see a future inclusion of the Shadow King somehow
The Special Charm was originally an unused item until 1.3 it was still a wallet item and still had the same effect if hacked in but before 1.3 it was always a blank space in your wallet you could not fill
I believe that with the 1.6 update you can now get the special weapons for every bachelor and bachelorette. They sell them for you if they put up a shop in the desert festival, which is a new festival added in this update.
i think its very poetic that alex (the name of one of my exs) was gonna be named josh (the name of another one of my exs , both of them being the only long term relationship ive ever been in) Its also funny that alex was the first guy i went for in stardew.
The 2 extra "Tackles" shown off are actually shown in the "Fishing Sneak Peak" Video on Concerned Ape's Channel here on RU-vid. The Green orb is "Frog Egg" and shown to be a bait, but the other one isn't hovered over so I don't know what it is specifically. Based on the video though I find it fair to assume it's also a bait. Additionally there are a handful of other icons shown off in that video that I don't quite recognize myself.
the answering machine sprite is actually in the game! when you call a shop and its closed, the answering machine sprite says smthing like ”were closed right now”
The weapons shown at 8:00 min can actually be bought now ingame. I just saw the pencil from elliott at the new spring festival for sale when he is behind the counter.
"You might encounter it if you play your cards right" - that's actually one of leah's sculptures that she shows off during her art show heart event! Its still very much in the game
8:09 So, as of 1.6 these weapons are now in the game! They can be purchased during the Desert Festival from the bachelors/bachelorettes in a little market thing!
at 7:00 it’s actually one of leah’s art pieces that you’ll only end up seeing if you unlock a special cutscene with her! if you encourage her to have an art show in town, sometime in spring (not sure when exactly or if its even spring exclusive, im going off the top of my head lol). anyways, that funny little animation is in fact in the game! i just recently encountered it when i played a couple days ago! :)
The statue of the eggs bouncing is seen at Leah’s art show. I think they are saying you might encounter it if you play your cards right by reaching eight hearts with her
There are three songs in the game still that havent been implemented (outside of mods). They are archaeo, starshoot and sappypiano. I love the latter two.
Imagine if after getting Krobus as a roommate there was a chance he’d ask you if you’d mind helping a friend of his and the shadow person with the bow would move in if you said yes. That would be so cute🥺❤
6:56 what if that is the final easter egg, and with the description "you might encounter this if you play your cards right" makes me think it has something to do with blackjack in the casino
okay so hear me out CA said that there's some eastereggs that weren't discovered yet What if The cursed PK machine IS in the game And there's like a random chance that if you play and win the PK in the Saloon instead of getting a functioning machine you get this one And that hasn't happened yet because most people just don't bother with the game machines in the saloon because they are too hard That wow That'd be cool but also kinda infuriating
9:36-ish That is (according to the wiki) Krobus' 14-heart cutscene (spoilers); When the player enters the beach between 8pm and 1am on a non-rainy day... "Krobus sits on the docks at the beach watching Moonlight Jellies swim, when a sea monster appears. The sea monster raises its tentacles, and Krobus hops on for a ride. A heart dialogue bubble appears over Krobus' head, indicating he enjoyed the ride." See also: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wJjgsSuIHC0.html
I love that the combat items have since been added in from the 1.6 update!! You can now buy them during the desert festival when the appropriate bachelor/ bachelorette is at their stall!
7:00 I think it's in reference to leahs art show! He probably means that if you choose to befriend her, you'll see the piece. I don't remember if it actually moves or not, but it looks just like that
I've actually seen the bouncing eggs, also called egg heads, they show up as one of Leah's art pieces during her heart event. At least it did for me, I had no idea it was rare
There's actually a lot of other unobtainable things like spirit torches and all of the fiber and rock variants, and you can eat the rocks for some reason.
Gotta be honest, the two alternate Emily designs on the bottom row both work MUCH better at communicating 'this character is interested in fashion' than the final version.
I hate the fact that Elliot (A character I absolutely love) had 5 previous portrets, and all 5 looked awesome, yet we got the current portrait which is just dissappointing
