Best New Stardew Valley Mods May 2021

daily newspaper

Our first Stardew Valley mod from May 2021 is this daily newspaper mod that is delivered to your front door each morning. The newspaper will give your information about the day’s fortune, weather, recipes, and farming tips.

It’s all displayed on one simple screen, so this allows you to skip through the lengthy TV shows to find out the important information you may want to know before starting your Stardew Valley day. It also gives you the option of removing your TV entirely without missing out on this valuable info.

Passive Friendship

friendship

This passive friendship mod is great because it lets you increase your relationship with the residents of Pelican Town simply by spending time in proximity to them. You’ll still increase friendship by the usual means of talking and gifting, but if you stand within two tiles of their character, you’ll start to gain small amounts of friendship with them.

You can change the mod’s range of effect from two tiles to another number, and you can also change how much friendship you gain by being next to the residents. There’s no limit on how much you can increase friendship per day, so you can enjoy hanging out with your favorite characters as much as you want to gain it quickly.

Flowery Vine Fences

If you’re feeling bored by the plain fences on your farm, this flowery vine fences mod will help make them pop. You can decorate your fences with blue, purple, white, lavender, orange, or pink flowers. And there’s even a green ivy vine look to use if you so choose.

These flowers can be customized on iron fences as well as both low and high stone fences. This mod also has seasonal changes to account for things such as leaves changing color and snow.

Kitty Cats

If you aspire to become the crazy cat person of Pelican Town, this kitty cats mod is just the thing for you. It adds cats to Stardew Valley. Lots and lots of cats.

Cats will start appearing all over the game, such as in town, in stores, on the beach, and in more areas. It won’t replace your pet, but if you have custom cat sprites added, it will replace the cats with those. Otherwise, it will use default cat sprites.

Even Better RNG

better rng

While a “better RNG” mod exists on GitHub, this mod makes the RNG in the game even better.

It uses much faster and less problematic RNG in various parts of the game, and fixes many of the broken RNG elements of the base game. The base game uses DotNet Framework’s System.Random mechanism, which the creator of this mod explains is slow and biased toward low values.

You can read all about the technical reasons behind these RNG changes in the mod right here.

Vyranity’s Breads mod adds 12 new bread types and three new wheat types to go with them. You will be able to buy three new crops at Pierre’s, and you can buy the recipes to make the bread from Gus.

It also adds two machines to help make the breads: a small flour mill, which is used to make flour, and the bread maker, which you then use to actually produce the bread.

This last mod might be the most basic yet convenient one yet. The coffee adrenaline mod adds shots of espresso to cups of coffee, allowing you to move faster and for a longer amount of time.
