I'm on year two and winter is approaching (fall 25). I didn't really like last winter because it felt very long. What do you do during those times? Do you skip some days by going to bed right after waking up? Do you fish and mine like hell?

Breeding slimes for specific colors. Winter is basically the only time I can do that in relative peace, as "sorting" those little hyperagressive snotballs takes astoundingly long each day, and when I try to do that in any other season I start to neglect everything that isn't automated (like planting crops, going to festivals, working towards the greenhouse...).

  • In spring, summer and autumn: animals > crops > spending the rest of the day foraging, wooing villagers, mining or fishing.

  • In winter: animals > slimes > spending the rest of the day foraging, wooing villagers, mining or fishing.

(I still often manage to run out of time and sprint home, cussing, only to break down in front of the bed...)
