Stardew Valley creator explained why he continues to support the game so many years after release

Stardew Valley has become a major hit. The developer has been expanding the project for many years and preparing new content; the path toward the best version continues

Recently, ConcernedApe spoke about the progress on update 1.6 for Stardew Valley. One fan wondered what makes the developer continue working to this day.

For many years now, ConcernedApe has been supporting Stardew Valley (2016) with updates, and he explained his motivation:

“for many reasons, including that so many people are still playing it, and many new people every day. I want it to be as good as possible. It will never be perfect, but I feel an urge to keep improving it. Up to this point, it’s been my life’s work, and I care a lot about it”.

The release date for Stardew Valley update 1.6 remains uncertain (and a significant amount of content is being kept under wraps). ConcernedApe also has the project Haunted Chocolatier in development.
