This video was recorded BEFORE my Harvest Moon video, hence why I’m confused by a lot of the mechanics that were obviously inspired by that game!
That's so crazy
ok
yes
@@sunnypop2779 Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats, and rats make me crazy. Crazy? I was crazy once.

Alternative title: Seanie dragging ConcernedApe for 22 minutes and 19 seconds
May as well have lit the guy on fire, lol.
PLEASE STILL GIVE ME CHOCOLATIER ALPHA ACCESS CA
@@SeanieDewafter this comment Seanie strangely disappeared…
omg hi runnereye
omg my two favourite youtubers interacting??? crazzy
This first version of stardew valley is really similar to how harvest moon looks/plays like I'm glad that he continued with the game polished and created new mechanics
I would like this but that would ruin the numbers
Yeah the greenhouse looked almost identical to harvest moons
I wouldn't play the game if it stayed that way
Or story of season as its known now
I'm not familiar with harvest moon, but ever since I started playing stardew valley I sensed a big similarity between it and a game called arcuz
10:17 "Why is he hoeing in the mines?"
Sir, that's how I found the last dwarf scroll I needed.
The blue one? I've been searching forever 😭😭
@@emo-gu9zn I think you can find any of them from hoe-able tiles in the mines
@@donaldw3231 Ah thank you so much
@@emo-gu9zn i cant find the yellow one aghh
@@emo-gu9zn I keep finding nothing but the blue ones 😭😭
All this video tells me is that Seanie has never played Harvest Moon. The 9 tile seeds, digging for a ladder - gold standard 😂
Haha right! He kept saying it seemed like haunted chocolatier and I was like 🤔
Also switching tools with animation above your head + holding items in hand if you wanted to go and sell max amount of them
The funny thing is he actually tried it out a while back. ua-cam.com/video/jKeb7UKhRvU/v-deo.html
It’s really nice to see how he slowly went from being very heavily inspired by harvest moon, then he eventually began to evolve Stardew Valley into something completely new. :)
Abigail's hair was originally blue? So THAT'S why Caroline complained about her daughter dyeing her hair blue when it's purple.
It went from black to green to blue to purple. Abigail's progression is really cool, it's almost like from "10 years old, normal-looking girl with a headband" to "15 years old, decides to dye her hair blue" to "20 years old, now a total rebel"
Harvest moon players can tell that the first trailer has everything from harvest moon lmao
Haha absolutely. It was so funny to me that he kept saying it seemed like haunted chocolatier. So many of these popular stardew players have never played harvest moon and it’s so interesting hearing their different pov because of it
Yess, I was about to write that haha😂
Harvest Moon the OG
Reminds me of how Witcher games were inspired by Gothic games. I guess CA just recreated mechanics from the game he knew and liked and then worked from there made changes to mechanics and sprites and all. I don't know about his previous coding experience but if you're not really experienced, it makes sense to try and recreate things you've seen before and that you know how they are supposed to behave before going on and deciding how you'd like your own thing to be.
Someone should make a mod just making everything into the creepy sun and call it Seanie's Nightmare
marry the creepy sun
hatch the creepy sun
have the creepy sun construct the creepy sun
grandpas secret creepy sun
Concernape watching Seanie absolutely DRAGGING him 👁👄👁
i know seanie isn't a game dev and clearly hasn't really watched many dev log type videos, so it's very funny hearing the comments about "why is he placing so many coops. DUDE YOU HAVE ENOUGH COOPS" or about him not doing any intros. that's just how game dev logs are man. it's early build documentation to show the mechanics working properly and showcase some features of the game very simply. huge game studios have the budget to make it some big extravagant thing but this is what i know and love from indie devs working on their own thing!
edit: i also saw a lot of people in the chat being very critical and harsh about the project demos, including one that said "bro is this an elementary school google slides presentation?" which i did wanna call out, cause it's really belittling to how much effort ConcernedApe must've put into these videos working as ONE MAN on this entire project
damn bro, you dumb as hell.
You're right, but this shouldn't be taken as critique, at least what Seanie said. As a content creator you point out things to talk about to talk about something, not really because it has actual value. View it a bit like watching sports and they describe what the players are doing, 99% of that is "unnecessary" and everyone can see it, but you got something to talk about and people not actively watching still know what's going on.
That wasn't Morris, that was the antagonist-type character that you had competed against to win the game essentially, but CA scrapped the idea
So like joja mart but with less capitalism?
so like jamie from harvest moon magical melody
I only played the original release in 2017 for several months, got to year like 4 and maybe half a million/a million coins and then didn't play again until 1.5. So when I started playing that farm again I was like WHATS A SECRET NOTE, FISH POND, SIT IN CHAIRS, NEW HOUSE ROOMS, FISH TANKS, MOVIE THEATER, CO-OP lmao and also ginger island was crazy but it was so weird to just see all the kinda basic changes that I wish were in the original release. Now I'm on year 10 with many millions and it's even more fun than the original release. Definitely cool to see all CA's original original ideas. I kinda wish villagers could walk on your farm as long as they didn't destroy things. Even if you had a stand by the entrance of your farm and you could find villagers there buying stuff you put there that would be cool.
It's SO Harvest Moon! God I'm so glad Concerned Ape developed his own style and the game became what we know and love!
Placing seeds at 2:06 is definitely from Harvest Moon. Edit: Also the mines at 10:00 are the same as in HM DS. You can really see CA really did use it as inspiration.
It’s so interesting to me how many of the popular stardew players have never played harvest moon at all!
@@MiuXiu I mean they haven't done a new one in ages and honestly I'd rather own multiple copies of SV than support a mega corp
@@NoThankUBeQuiet The most recent game is from February 2021. It came to PC recently as well. The same company also released Rune Factory 5, a similar series, that came out last month.
Bokujou Monogatari (original Harvest Moon) decided to go with a different English translator and distributor. That's when they lost the right to use the name "Harvest Moon." It's now known as Story of Seasons and has been for a decade now. Any game you've seen since 2012 titled "Harvest Moon" is Natsume trying to profit off of their name. Do not give any money to Natsume!
@@82KA4 thank you for replying to them and letting them know lol, I didn’t have the energy
@@MiuXiu It makes me so sad to see that it seems like most people who played HM don't know about this. :( A lot of people bash the developers thinking their games are bad now thanks to Natsume. All my homies hate Natsume.
Seems like ConcernedApe took all of those videos down in the meantime... 😔 That's kinda sad because the masterpiece we now got evolved from those small beginnings. There's no need to be ashamed of how it looked like before. It's even more amazing to see how everything developed and turned out so amazing in the end!
he didn't take it down bruh-
@@jamesplayz9024 I couldn't find them anywhere, can you show me where they are please? :)
@@M00nie633 search "concerned ape" in yt then click his Channel then scroll down then you'll see it:)
@@M00nie633 did u find it?
@@jamesplayz9024 unfortunately not, that's why I thought that he deleted them :(
Came here straight from Z's latest video, and honestly I'm giving this a like just because it's nice and quiet.
I wish I did the same. RIP to everyone’s ears after that video.
tbh old sebastian was fire, more of a nerd and less "ThE oCeAn iS bEsT eNjOyEd aLoNe" when im literally his fiance
"You begin crafting. . . and succeed!" Oh man if I failed a crafting, oof.
wild strawberries often root and sprout on the ground. The biologically engineered ones typically have bushes while wilds won't.
We grew real strawberries and they grew in a bush-like plant
This makes me so glad I played Harvest Moon as a kid and could enjoy it for what it was back then. Looking at and playing Stardew Valley then going back to HM would be an absolute Experience and a half.
I tried to and you don't realize how many features are in Stardew until they're gone.
"that's so many coops...dude that's- THAT'S ENOUGH COOPS OH MY GOD MAN- how many chickens you got???"
*Top tier commentary*
i appreciate him keeping those original videos on the channel
The alpha looks VERY much like Harvest Moon, especially the old GBC and GBA games, its even clearer that he took inspiration from these, the mechanics are all one to one, the layout of the mines, the forages, the way the shipping bin and seeds work, etc.
ape’s success just goes to show that anyone can be successful if they stick with it. 💜
Started playing stardew valley because of your videos!
what an honor!
Welcome to the community!
I'm pretty sure wild strawberries do NOT grow on a bush, least not around here hahaha. They are totally foraged from the ground. Also, the nine seeds at once was probably a nod to story of seasons friends of mineral town, or one of the other earlier games from that series.
I guess it's cause the plant is called a strawberry bush in English. So guess the plant is similar to the fruit (strawberries = nuts, strawberry bush = herb). . . Man we butchered the naming of this plant.
21:12 "he's bring the concerned to the concerned ape" - someone in the live chat
Seanie is like confused, impressed, and surprised at the same time😭
Wild strawberries by my house grow on the ground alongside the grass
i absolutely lost it when he started spamming pigs 😭😭
Was this recorded before the Friends of Mineral Town video? Because the things that surprised Seanie the most seemed to be the things that were more directly from FoMT, such as the 3x3 seed planting and the hoeing in the mine. Or did he just forget?
this was before the harvest moon video! x
the old sprites have shading, but it is a lot more subtle. i prefer the new look, because they look more “brightly lit” due to the harsher shadow that simulates the brightest time of day
The Puffhead video is a reference to CA's favorite film Eraserhead by David Lynch
4:13 SEBBY LOOKED SO CUTE!!!
petition to replace that sun logo with seanie's face
2:55 "Strawberries grow on a bush"
I think you've got your berries mixed up, sib
This confirms my suspicion that Penny and Maru are dating
He definitely hasn’t played and of the original SOS/Harvest Moon games lol
This was really fun to see! Thanks for the content Seanie!
Puff head is the scariest thing I’ve ever seen
Your videos are always entertaining. Keep it up Seanie.
So much of the first trailer is "Oh that's just Harvest Moon" lol
my dude why are you so surprised about stuff xD you played harvest moon already! You know wassup
hahah I actually recorded this BEFORE the Harvest Moon stream - so I was a little confused lol
I love how the music’s on point from day 1 but everything else is struggling to keep up lol. Eternally glad ConcernedApe had the commitment he did!
@ around 4:30 I realized I might pronounce Maru wrong. He says Mah-ROO, I pronounce it MAH-roo.
The moment I saw the 9 seed planting mechanic, I could hear Harvest Moon's Friends of Mineral Town playing
you dont need to open the menu to put something in the shipping bin
I really like your content and enjoy watching your videos :)
i just saw this for the first time and it's so cute that he used the "frog egg" that used to be bait for the new trinkets 😋
Oh wow, alpha Stardew Valley looks a lot more like classic Harvest Moon (known as Story of Seasons now). The 9 seeds thing started way back in SNES Harvest Moon mechanic.
Bring back the planting 9 seeds at once ability
i am so incredibly early- you have the best timing seanie
Hey, that feature where you could place 9 seeds at once reminds me of that Harvest Moon game for the GBA 🤔 I always thought that it was annoying not being able to place them individually when I was younger
I find it really cool to see what the beginning was like. There are some farm games that are a lot like Stardew Valley too and they are in the alpha right now. This makes me exited to see what those games will look like later
Oh my god, I've seen Duck before! I had no idea that was from CA
seanie: man it would be so annoying of things took time to craft
me: thinks of animal crossing
It is I dr Heinz doofinshmirts. With my concerned-ape-inator!
omg early sebastian looks like anthony from smosh way back in like 2014
Started playing Stardew Valley because of you ☺️ fell in love with the game
10:41 There are some crystals to the left you didn't mention.
The final game has crystals too but not that big.
This whole video has never let them know your next move vibes
im pretty sure the music at 7:13 is Sebastian's song, it plays in his heart cutscenes
Seanie, this is not how you become friends with ConcernedApe in real life!
3:18 you can still do this, actually.
i played first on the switch when it was released in like fall 2017 i think? its changed so much even just from then
Wild strawberries on the ground are a thing!
I don't think the character sprites look bad at all
This is a true masterpiece
The chat behind him said that someone was waiting for a fanfic with seanie at the start
2:03 I remember being able to do that in harvest moon back to nature. I haven’t played that game in years
6:00 Isn't that the Rival character that got ultimately deleted on the right there? This cutscene would probably be once your time ran out and you either defeated them or got defeated by them
no bc i said "it's enough slices" as the exact same time as you i'm screaming
Hey umm do think you have to open the shipping bin menu to ship stuff 😅
The secret note could have been a sprite for soggy newspaper.
9:33 Animal Crossing new Horizons and Minecraft: "Just you wait lmao."
They way you pronounce “Maru.” 💀
"MAROO" lmao..
Hoeing in mines and putting 9 seeds at the time is so harvest moon/story of seasons 😂 at least the older parts, haven't played for a decade😂😂
THE CHAT AT 0:09 CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD I HAVENT EVEN STARTED WATCHING YET
I think a lot of the unpolished look just comes from less pixels.
A lot of different stuff is 1 to 1 Harvest Moon, like planting 9 seeds, throwing stuff atr the bin, showing the tool over your head, ...
Glad he decided to make it all more detailed and make it hisown.
20:03 "It's really incredible how much Stardew Valley has come."
Ex-... excuse me? 🤨
The mining seems more similar to harvest moon. I remember having to till the ground to dig in friends of mineral town
"she shippef something she didn't even open up the menu"
You can do that in modern day stardew valley as well. Left click instead of right click and you'll put the entire stack of whatever you're holding in.
didn’t even get a notif for this one i’m just that early B)
also reminded me to turn all notifs on for the channel lol
18:05 and the frog egg really came out
It seems like some things in earlier versions were more similar to things in harvest moon, like throwing 9 seeds in a 3x3 plot or the hoeing the ground in the mines to find a way down. Those were things that Harvest Moon games generally did. The fact that it was similar was what got me interested. Though I still wish it had it where time didn't move when you were inside buildings, and I wish you could stay up all night if you need to though you end up taking a hit on stamina the rest of the new day.
I sometimes ship stuff without ever opening a menu.
there's never enough chickens
Why is this video Seanie screaming at everything he sees like he doesn't understand anything 😂😂 I get its a different version of the game but at some point it was like: A video!? and he's showing the farm!? Why did he enter the house!? is this his house!!? Wait there's a bed !?! why he goes to sleep !"? is he tired !?!
Bro was viking to that music
What is that little pumpkin fellow in the background?
"Chicken goin up!"
oh no not puff-head💀
Mayor lewis at the wedding: 🤨
I was a stardew valley fan when i was 7 i Washington bo4n in 2024 so i dientes live for that
3:15 I think those are eggplant not red cabbage
dang, the guy looks like Harvey in real life
Its possible that its Elliott because in the summer he will stand in that spot by leahs house.
The pigs he spawned ITS ENOUGH SLICES! 🗣️
