Hey guys! I'm the player featured in this video, and I'm very grateful to both Seanie and Blade for the help they provided, since there was absolutely no way I'd have been able to fix this by myself. If you guys have any questions that weren't answered by the video, feel free to let me know :)
Did CA ever end up reaching out to you after you reached out to him? I know in the past, he's had others send the save file over and he's patched it before, so I figured the end of this nail-biting tale would be just that; CA reaching out to you again and patching the save himself. I'm also curious if he would have been able to find out WHY it happened.
I remember your Summer of 69 subreddit post! And getting that Bryan Adams song stuck in my head lol. So glad to see how things turned out - and in a SeanieDew dramatic reenactment no less 😄
If I was new to the game and this happened to me, I would be so frustrated!
@@autopsyturvy unfortunately not. I tweeted him twice and he never replied. I probably could have emailed him and gotten better results, but by the time I got into contact with Sean I thought I'd better just ride it out to see if he'd be able to find some way to fix it
I imagine it sucks in practice, but you do have to admit the concept of a neverending summer is a really sick idea for a story
Since several people have asked, I didn't grow the pomegranate in the greenhouse because I was a new player and I didn't know I could do that at the time.
Don't worry mate i never planted a fruit tree until my second save which was slightly modded xD
The real problem with your play-through was marrying Elliot

@@limebloodedleviathan lol his date with you is him taking you on a boat completely secluded just to talk about himself, give you a backhanded compliment, and then KISS you without your consent! He literally makes the player TREMBLE! Shane kisses the player too but for one it was in public, and it was a peck after he got super excited with the team winning at a ball game, he immediately realized what he did and apologizes, then the player goes up to him and kisses him back automatically. What Elliot did was completely planned and inappropriate, plus he’s the embodiment of pretentiousness lmao, besides Haley he’s the worst single IMO
Whelp, you know what they say: "There's a hundred and four days of summer vacation."
Escept here you double that and add 17
The only problem is finding a good way to spend it. Like maybe fighting a mummy.

"yea sure. You're gonna have to be in day 1 of summer tho lmao"
LMAO, must have been a bad luck day
I thought this aswell. He must've been shitting himself waiting for summer to progress through
I LAUGHED SO HARD
Imagine it had happened again
It’s like getting someone to save you from torture but you still have to go through the agonizing moment waiting for that person to rescue you and the thought that the person could never come
I cannot say for certain exactly what caused the issue, but I know the area of code that it happens.
Just before the game saves, there are overnight updates that the game does, like set dailyLuck, weatherForTomorrow, update machine processing across the map, spawning forage etc.
During this update, the dayOfMonth gets updated (dayOfMonth++). In the same method (but not immediately after), the game checks the value of dayOfMonth. If it is exactly 29, then dayOfMonth is set to 1, and the season changed. Something must have happened between these two areas of code that caused the game to stop its overnight update, but still save. Since the game checks for exactly 29 in the dayOfMonth field, any subsequent updates has no chance of moving into the next season.
I may do some more digging to see what can cause this issue in the overnight update.
I wonder if it has something to do with the mobile version allowing you to close the game but still pick up where you left off in a day (instead of restarting the day like normal). Perhaps he closed the game in the perfect instant to interrupt the checks? Just a thought from someone with absolutely 0 programing knowledge, just glad to see the sun set on his eternal summer 😊
What is the reason for the exact 29 check and not simply a "greater than 28" check? Things like this are taught to be bad in programming for this exact reason, if you somehow manage to sneak by the check, you're stuck in a loop forever.
@@halaffapokemagician199 I’m guessing it’s because it never came up, or Concerned Ape/the third party company that ported SV to the phone where inexperienced enough to not do it, or just forget to. Concerned Ape is one man and a (mostly) unharmful mistake just messed over this one persons’ save. Happens, and it’s wonderful to have talented users and fans that can help each other out. This is definitely the most wholesome fandom :)
What happens if the # of days overflows? Would that be a way, albeit monotonous, to fix it?
What would have happened if the day reached 2.147.483.647? Would have the counter started going negative? (If im saying bullshit its my fault, i know nothing about programming)
It’s quite ironic that after the eternal summer, after all those days of summer, they ends up on summer 1. Where they still have to play the whole of summer until they can reach fall
I'm so thrilled that Blade is the one who could fix this. What a guy!
he is the SWEETEST man i’ve ever met
Blade really is the yoba of stardew valley. He knows everything!

Imagine never being able to celebrate your husband's birthday?! Poor Elliot! Thank Yoba Blade fixed it!
Thank you BlaDe!!! It would’ve driven me crazy if there was no happy ending. Awesome editing!
Also BlaDe - can you make an intro to modding series on your channel? No pressure!
this dramatic reading is making me love this so bad
7:17 i love how it ends up being the 1st of summer lmao, 28 more days until he's free! well, at least he'll have birthdays, the luau and dance of the moonlight jellies
imagine having to play another 28 days of purgatory not even knowing if the fix would actually work
This could have been a Halloween episode. In any case, can't one plant fruit trees in the greenhouse on the Android version? It would not have fixed the unending summer but he would have been able to get his pomegranate.
You can plant trees in the greenhouse in any season. I'm pretty sure the whole "need pomegranate" thing is just for dramatic effect.
He was too new to the game to realize you could plant trees in the greenhouse apparently.
can't have been a Halloween episode, Halloween is in fall
@@loupgarou95 well, that wouldn’t fix the issue of eternal summer
@@dazcarrr Nice
I’m glad there was a happy ending, but there’s still one problem… does anyone know how or why this glitch started in the first place?
probably a falling particle from the sky changing a 1 to a 0 making it so the game didnt change season
Cosmic rays?
@@notyolo2871 the odds of that happening are extremely small. Especially with modern hardware having added fail saves to prevent this exact thing
Looking at the game code would lead to something going wrong during the saving so that the current day got increased but the season check didn’t. Since it check for the exact 29th day for a swap and not >28 it never changes afterwards
@@4sent4 that was also my first thought, but people declare you crazy for it because they dont know about it
This guy is living in the Phineas and Ferb universe damn
This is giving me creepypasta vibes, talk about insane summer pergatory!
Same
the inner artist in me wants to make this into a comic or short story lol, the eternal summer purgatory 😭
I don't know if I had a glitch or a secret discovered, but when I finished the community center I went to the left where the junimo hut used to be, randomly clicking to see if I could interact with anything, and got 3 Omni geodes???
If you don't pick up the reward after finishing a bundle, you can get the reward you left behind by the little junimo hut, so I guess you must have forgotten to pick up those Omni geodes at some point and gotten them back now. But I didn't know you can still retrieve those items when the community centre is completed, that's cool!
This was really entertaining, for once seanie’s voice is calming
Wow! The Stardew Valley version of "Groundhog Day"? Glad it got fixed!
The first ever Stardew Valley creepypasta sighting
I really enjoyed the vibe of the video! I love the scary vibes like its a horror podcast but in stardew!
Boy's playing Stardew without the Seasons Expansion 😂
i am really stunned by blades work, He really saved someone's game life!
im glad this persons game got fixed !! love the editing in this video, especially the dramatic recitation in the beginning
To each their own I guess. I hate it when content creators stretch a video idea that’s barely three minutes to ten minutes by purposefully padding it with irrelevant information.
I’d be interested in a never ending fall glitch.
Never ending fairy rose honey
never ending winter
never ending cranberries
@@YEs69th420 pain
@@YEs69th420 goat milk time
i wasn't sure until about halfway through whether this was a creepypasta or not! great video and i'm glad it had a happy ending
Now, as painful as the glitch is on an unsuspecting victim, i have to wonder if there is a way to harness its power. To do so, 2 things need to be discovered first: how to replicate it, and how to end it without digging into the code manually. In the challenge run and speedrun extensions perspective, you could do single season runs. How would the community center change if done exclusively in spring, summer, fall winter, etc. Year 1 vs Year 2? Mixed seeds plus garden pots or greenhouse could handle most crops, but the glitch itself raises lots of questions as to how much is locked off, such as changing shop stock or season-specific cutscenes and events.
I think something went wrong when saving the file and it somehow loaded a new day before successfully saving the file.
Since it might check the savefile to see the day and season, and it read 27 before successfully saving the file to 28.. Something like that, I'm not sure...
"Beautiful husband Elliott"
Truer words have never been spoken
Couldn't he have just bought anothr pomegranate sapling and placed it in the greenhouse and completed the cc that way? Just wondering
I am.... Now aware that that's something I could have done. However, as previously stated, I was really new to the game and didn't know you could plant fruit trees in the greenhouse.
@@thetaaaa glad ur game got fixed.
I was thinking the travelling trader that shows up by Marnie's ranch, I think they can randomly sell pomegranates
can you buy those saplings in summer?
I like how Seanie doesn't make fun of mobile players like some Minecraft players do with pocket edition.
Loved this video! Amazing work with the editing too. Plus Blade is just incredible!
Glad it's solved, but this has got me thinking that a challenge run of Stardew Valley locked to just one season would be pretty interesting, wonder if there's any mods for that out there...
Stardew Valley: Game of Thrones edition
This was really fun to watch. Nice storytelling Seanie!
Ok, here's pretty neat in the mobile as well, there's an occasion where Robin will stop working and walk around your farm, destroying everything she comes contact with
This was one of my favourite videos of yours. I loved the story, I loved how the community came together, I loved the conclusion. Altogether awesome.
Serious horror story vibes and I love it
Really awesome of Blade and Seanie to help him out like that, honestly. I don’t imagine it would’ve gotten solved (at least for a very long time) otherwise.
DUDE! Story telling shown through sdv looks so good. I would love if this became a staple of your channel
The Blade cat is my favorite part of Blade's pov
Your storytelling approach is amazing. I'm so glad that to see a community coming together to help better a single player's experience. ♡♡♡
Eternal summer: [exists]
Alex: *OH YEAH*
The stardew Valley equivalent of Groundhog Day
That was a really good narration of events! Great video!
loved the way you tell the story!
am living for this dramatic reading
This can be solved with the greenhouse
Worst thing happened to me I caught the crimson fish passed out before it was in my inventory I caught it but I didn't have the fish to put in the tank
This is crazy, never heard of anything like this happening is Stardew. Crazy game
5:15 can we appreciate the amount of luck he had when opening geodes tho -
I like this video style. It shows your story telling chops off! People love a good story
i really like the storytelling, and i'm glad there was a happy resolution to it
I love how seanie is narrated this like reading a spooky story we should give him more credit
this should be a movie at the movie theatre :D nice narration seanie
This was great! Thanks for helping out a fellow player.
lmaoo i love this video, but couldn’t he have just used the greenhouse to grow the pomegranate? 😭
tbh I had no idea you could grow trees in there until now (I got the game for Christmas) and the dude was new 🤷
i like how the actual day just HAD to be summer 1st.
forcing him into 28 more ingame days of summer
oh my god wait is that cat on BlaDe's video a cat he's just holding live? i love that so much omg the cat looks so happy
That is Gordon. He is the channel mascot.
@@BlaDeSDV i love him. subscribing for Gordon :D (and your content, i just love cats)
Fill the entire farm with hops and starfruits
I’m glad that we know how to fix the glitch now, but it’s disappointing that we still don’t know what caused it in the first place.
want my winter only farm on mobile 😂 I know how to trigger 1 season forever
Awesome video! Finally made ne subscribe rather than just catch a video here and there.
So basically it's a reversed frozen plot
Great video Seanie!!
Bro I think the problem is Elliot, cause on my save file Elliot can move when time is stopped when no other NPCs can
There really is 104 days of summer vacation
I was expecting him to then get stuck in a endless fall lol
"there are 104 days of summer vacation"
I did not expect a dramatic story but it slaps ngl
Me during the story: "Dude - you have one item left - you have a greenhouse - why are your fruit trees not in the greenhouse"
I didn’t know fruit trees could grow in there for years, so you can’t really blame him lol
You probably should have went with walleye - or some other fall fish as fruit tree had an answer
@@MiniMia48 fair enough
He’s new, but I’m surprised no one else pointed it out to him
This seems like a creepypasta stardew valley style
Seeing that the days lined up so that he's in day one of summer is like the most legendary tragedy I've ever seen.
i’m playing stardew valley right now. i don’t know if it’s coded this way or if it’s a coincidence, but i got the letter from pierre about gifting bouquets to show someone you’re romantically interested in them, and immediately after, i got the letter from abby saying to come to her room at 8pm
I loved this video! This style said you Seanie :)
this guy named himself Burn Brighter and the summer sun said SAY LESS
You sir are a brilliant storyteller. 😍
“The only way” if it’s the last thing he needs then he already had his greenhouse and could just grow the last pomegranate in there?
The way you narrated that, made it sound like a 2016 creepy pasta. Very cool
eternal summer? i believe i have just found phineas and ferb simulator.
stardew valley just said "NO POMEGRANATES!!!"
"Mom can we have ginger island?"
"We have ginger island at home."
Ginger island at home:
You’re a great story teller man
Ye he should read Edward Hitchcock story
I can't even imagine the joy BurnBrighter felt when he saw the fall season. He most likely cried at the sight at the community center being completed..
that intro speil was exactly how my first playthrough went, without the infinite summer
This sounds like a creepypasta.
I feel like I just watched a Netflix documentary
Groundhog Day is a good core idea of the horror of not being able to move onto the next day. There’s a reason he resorted to killing himself in this movie, he just wanted a pomegranate.
This is also an episode of the twilight zone called "December 32nd"
nice editing :) v spoopy
The dramatic reading makes this much more entertaining
Edit: i also saw someone experienced this glitch
I just forgot who
But its in the stardew valley fb group
His date is not matching
Reminds me of the Phineas and Ferb song "Forever Summer".
I played a bit with the save file too, luckily I didn't crash mine nor It behaved weirdly.
The Summer of 69 became real.
finally... 104 days of summer vacation
One time, Mayor Lewis walked out of his house area and into the dark abyss,
The Never -Ending Summer sounds like a bestselling novel
This should be a movie
had winter 29th once. thought it was normal since I didn't have a calendar and I just wanted to sleep through the entirety of winter since it hurt my eyes. game progressed as normal, though.
It would suck to be stuck in winter for all of eternity.
Blade is such a hero!!
