    In this video, we wait in horror for the other shoe to drop when he heads to the community center for the first time and learns several terrible things about the crystalarium
    1) the vault is the last set of bundles you unlock, so you have to complete like three bundles before you have the option to buy the crystalarium
    2) you can't complete any bundles on your first trip because you can't read Junimo
    3) you learn how to read junimo by WAITING ANOTHER DAY so you can trip out on forest juice with the local wizard

    I watched this with my mother who loves Stardew and has 4k hours in the game with her best friend. She mentioned a few things that you should look out for in the future:
    - the bottom left part of the farm that has dirt is the best for planting crops and using sprinklers, but if you prefer to have them up by your house so you can skip through days and check them quickly that is fine
    - make wild seeds!! If you get enough of the seasonal forage to make seasonal wild seeds, you can either sell the seeds for a price that is greater than the combined price of the 4 forage that you use to make it. You can also plant them to get MORE forage and make more wild seeds to sell or replant. She and her friend always make and sell wild seeds (because they have better things to do than actually plant and cultivate those seeds in their games)
    - there were more things she mentioned, but either you brought it up later in the video or I forgot them since we watched the other day.

    I didn't expect a follow up on this! this is fun. It makes me wanna try it myself. Not scything all the fibers in summer/autumn seems like a loss to me because you would've gotten a lot of seeds from it to plant in the beginning of the next season. Also keeping the forageables for the community center and using the extras to make wild seeds. But I do think trying this out on a map with a mines section would be easier. However, the crates and other stuff that wash up on the beach are also useful.

      that way you would need to get the most money in the first season to get the fishing rod, crab pots maybe... thinking ahead for lvl 10 fishing, you could get the backpack, start the community center and such... so you have some actually plausible and entertaining progress after one year.
      also... dig up dirt for clay... for money
      and maybe save up money for a structure of some kind.

    After some thought, I've decided to try a modified version of this challenge. I'm allowed to leave the farm once per season, but for an added challenge I'm not allowed to use the shipping box - all money needs to be earned by selling to shops or completing quests during my one day of freedom per season.
    The main aim is to complete the community centre by the end of year 2, which I've calculated is possible with strategic use of those 8 days of freedom. I'll be playing on the beach farm (for the foraging, ocean fish and supply crates), with enemies spawning at night so I can get mixed seeds from wilderness golems and get the loot needed for the adventurer's bundle without eating into my time off the farm.
    The secondary aim is to get 4 candles in grandpa's evaluation, which I think is only going to be possible if I pull off completing the community centre and can also reach the bottom of the mines (with staircases, because I doubt I'll have time for any other method!).

    This is fun! I'm actually curious how much it would change with the four corners farm since that one has a little of everything including the little mining section. Also, whenever you have extra energy try hoeing the ground. That will give you clay/ coal/ artifacts and sometimes ore. Then pickaxe the ground to unhoe it so you still have a chance for stuff to spawn in that spot.

    Assuming you plan on doing another year, you could get the upgrade right at the end of the year, and then go on the second day of the next year.

    This was both painful and entertaining to watch, and it makes me want to attempt the challenge myself. Clay farming (and in winter digging for extra forageables) would be another way you could make money without leaving the farm in year 1, and of course actually scything the weeds to get the mixed seeds (although I think they're more likely to spawn next to other weeds, so the best strategy probably is to leave some to begin with in order to produce more for later seasons).

    Please continue with these weird challenge videos! I love how cursed they are and it's fun to see someone playing the game in an unusual way!

    I'm noticing a theme in your videos, Kevin. One chunk Minecraft, Hermit in Stardew Valley. Are you okay? Do you need a break from society?

      what does that even mean? half an hour lasts half an hour, there is no quick or slow half hours, they all last half an hour, that's why they're called like that
