also, one last thing.... I haven't found a gazebo....

That one is kind of intentionally obscure. It's an in-joke among my friends, because all of us happen to love a game called Wonder Boy in Monster World for the Sega Genesis. Anyone who has played it will instantaneously recognize the puzzle.
The music door and the gazebo in town are references to the game.
I wasn't even born yet to have a genisis (though, I wish I had/have one...). I'll look it up, unless you have another hint or two to spare...
Edit: I feel like I should mention a bug I've encountered. When going into the crafting menu the game freezes and I have to back out (to this screen) and go abck in repeatedly. Might just be me.
Edit again: Also, with the coke burner, I can't seem to use it. I put wood, ores everyhting to get coal, but I can't get anything out of it. do I put dragon figh in it? also, a reccomendation for the '?' button, is that there should be a guide for the individual items/shops (if it isn't much of a hasle to do, anyway) to give machine/shop specific reccomendations or tips.

The Coke Oven is bugged in the most recent update, so that's it for the content currently. A new update is going to release on Dec 27th that will fix that as well as add a ton of new content.
If you can spare the $1, Wonder Boy in Monster World is actually available as a virtual console download on Steam. Perfect game to kill some time before the update comes out. Otherwise I'm sure skipping around a youtube walkthrough would also get the job done for free.
ah, good to know, good to know. I hope your game continues to grow, its really cool having a (from what's here so far ) mash-up between Star Dew Valley and Animal crossing. it really fits!
Also, if you need someone to test out a private demo (whether its a private itch game or download only) I'd be happy to help game test and report bugs, typos, ect.
Also, one more question; I see there are different rarity stars (two things, actually..), and I was wondering if you were going to add a symbol or letter to indicate rarity; I.E for a white star, there'd be a C in or next to the star, the green one would be UC for uncommon, purple would be R for rare, so on...
Going along with that, I was wondering if there are any legendary items, whether its just planned to be implimented or already is, 'cause I love to kinda- for lack of a better word- hoard. I try to get one of eeevery item in most games, especially in games like Star dew, Horizon, God Of War, ect ect.
Anyway, I know you are a very very busy man, and I'll try to only reply if i find a bug or reeeealy need another hint on something.
I haven't given a ton of thought to the rarities, but that's a good idea because the stars are kind of unintuitive.
I'll definitely be adding a feature to keep track of which items you've collected, with an appropriate reward for completing the collection.
The next update should be the last one for free demos, I'm probably going to switch over to Steam early access in January, but I'll be sure to pass a key your way when that happens.
I'm also going to take some time to add a save exporter in this month's update. I can't replicate that crafting bug you're seeing, so hopefully that will help me grab different people's games and sort things out. It would also let people transfer their games from the web version to the desktop version.
maybe, I've got no clue. It may also be me, as i'm (at this moment) using a chromebook to play. I have a pretty good PC at home with steam, though. I would also like to add another rarity reccomendation; Mythical.
Myhical would be for items that take alot of effort to firstly find, and then to get it would also be a chore itself.
anyway, the export save is a good idea, but what about, say, something like an account? the only purpose bing for the data, unless you add multiplayer into it, in which case, it'd also be used for the username and ranks/tags.
I'd also like to add, your an amazing dev, the most interactive that I've met, like, ever.
trying to harvest the red flower things and they don't get picked up. it just gives me null, then when harvesting the % stays on screen (frozen) along with rescource assets. You are un able to leave, and if you try it wont let you move and the inventory just has the darkened back ground and nothing else.
Have I mentioned accidentally breaking games is my specialty?
I appreciate the kind words!
I changed the name of those potatoes, but never updated the actual object, so unfortunately another game breaking bug that will be fixed in the next update. If you've saved your game, it may be broken until I can push a fix for it, so you'll be stuck until then. If not, you can just leave them be and they'll rot next season.
