To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Stardew Valley, creator Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone has shown off a bunch of early versions, saying the game never really came together until the last minute.
Just over 10 years ago, Stardew Valley launched, and the Harvest Moon-like indie hit did pretty well all things considered, given that it's now sold over 50 million copies, making it one of the best-selling games ever made (that's better than any single Call of Duty or Pokemon release has ever done, for context). And its 10-year reign of cozy terror is only seeming to grow as it's still getting substantial updates this much time later, with 1.7 set to add two new marriage candidates with Clint and Sandy – although with the reaction to Clint being one of those, it may as well be one candidate.
