Cute game even has a cute in-universe explanation for the bug.

but because this is Stardew Valley, fans have demanded an official in-game lore explanation for the sudden required removal of pet hats

I came into this article looking for the lore lol, the community is like a cherry on a sundae. You kinda just gotta label it an RPG on that basis

He did that recently as well with disappearing chickens!

Look, the farm was abandoned for years, you can't get too mad at that poor hungry coyote!

I'm always amazed that people play console and PC games on mobile. How do you move around and manage all of the inputs?

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 25 points 2 weeks ago

Touch screen. Some mimics console game controler. It's a widely accepted thing now.

Not saying that I like it myself, but lot of people do.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 17 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I didn't understand how anyone can play with so much of the screen taken up by buttons.

[-] TranquilTurbulence@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 weeks ago

It’s because of display size.

Back in the ancient times people used to divide mobile devices into phones, phablets and tablets. Nowadays, most phones are about the size of a phablet, so you totally have the screen real estate for buttons.

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

I guess that's why small phones died.

Man, I miss those.

A controller works just fine for Stardew Valley.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 8 points 2 weeks ago

Obviously. I'm talking about on a phone though.

[-] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 23 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

you can use any Bluetooth controller with phones these days. including standard xbox ones.

i love it for emulating old Nintendo games

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

How do you hold the phone in position with both hands using the controller? I suppose you could use a phone stand at a table, but that really just seems counter to the purpose of gaming on a phone; the ability to do it anywhere.

[-] Esostoic@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

You can get clips that you can attach the phone and the controller together. There are also mobile specific controllers if that's more your flavor. Mobile was surprisingly decent to my standards for a period of time where I had no other platform, especially with emulators.

sometimes i put in on my knees, but I'm almost never in a situation where i want to game, but don't have a table.

like, sure, i could spend $1000+ dollars on a mobile solution to compliment my desktop. or i can take my existing hardware and have a pretty good time with it while traveling or waiting for someone or something. it feels like people are trying to come up with silly reasons for this to not work. why would you think i would try to hold the phone in my hands too?

how does needing to put the phone down defeat the purpose on not bringing an entire extra $1000+ dollar gaming machine with me? i mean sure, i could play 2 generations old games on a laptop for a lot less than that, but i haven't spent a single penny on my mobile setup. it's not about being the ideal setup, it was about realizing i could use my existing tools to do interesting things like play my favorite childhood Gameboy games whenever and wherever.

you don't even need a special case for it. i just use a pop socket to stand it up or hang it off something. again, something I already had.

[-] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Same here my dude.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 25 points 2 weeks ago

If we do that, Hitler already won.

We don't negotiate with hitler terrorists.
