I'm just an old civil engineer who has fallen prey to the addictive charm of Stardew Valley.

Day 1

 * Consider "Always Show Tool Hit Location"
 * Arrange tools in your backpack intuitively. No. Not a walkthrough tip.
 * Ship fiber and clay day 1.
 * Pick up any Dandelion, Leek, Daffodil, etc. you see (include images) on your first trip to the store.
 * Consider returning from the store around its back where there is a fountain and playground to forage.
 * At the store, go to the greenish counter and interact with the cash register to the left.
 * Biggest challenges on Day 1 are energy (foraged L, WH, and SO) and pack space (wood for a chest).
 * To save energy and pack space by chopping no rocks, find the Cindersap Forest to the south by starting directly south from mailbox.
 * It starts to get dark at 7:30, which makes it hard to recognize (L, D, and WH)
 * After planting your 40 parsnips and clearing wood here and there, it will be all you can do to cut down even one tree.
 * At the end of the day, ship all your Clay, Fiber, and Daffodils. Trash your mixed seeds or save them for Spring 14-16 when you have more energy and stamina.
