Stardew Valley creator Eric Barone says he chooses what goes in each update based on his "whims," but he wishes he'd made it easier for him to make them.
In an interview in PC Gamer magazine, Eric 'ConcernedApe' Barone was asked what goes into making each update, like the substantial Stardew Valley 1.6 update that rolled out on PC in March (and is still on its way for consoles). In response, Barone said that "mostly, it's just how I feel, my whims. It helps when I play the game myself, then I will get ideas; 'Man, I wish this was in the game', or a spark of an idea."
