About the Game
Welcome to Elderfield is a cozy horror RPG where the abnormal is normal, the townsfolk are odd, the eldritch beings watch over you and the local news reports seem stranger by the day.
Everything in Elderfield is unsettling, from the haunting, horror manga-inspired, hand-drawn visuals to the dark, lofi soundscapes composed by Dated. Despite the strange creatures lurking just outside your home, those who wander into Elderfield rarely find a reason… or option, to leave.
Customize your home and character, unravel daily mysteries, befriend the odd townsfolk (or even marry one!), go fishing, spend your afternoons mining and forage through the surrounding wilds… There's lots to do in Elderfield!
Cultivate your land, harvest your crops, and stop the growth of unruly tentacles. Manage a variety of strange, otherworldly livestock, grow useful crops like corn, pumpkins, teeth or eyeballs and hope that beings from the woods don’t wander onto your farm.
Choose your difficulty, how much suffering can you endure? For players seeking a peaceful life of harvest and discovery, cozy difficulty offers a more laid-back experience. For those who crave a challenge, the Old Gods are waiting.
Elderfield features a deep, turn-based combat system where you must utilize gathered resources, strategic buffs and diverse equipment to survive encounters with ancient, Lovecraftian horrors.
Die, learn, farm, and forage… Then die again.
Full RPG life sim with relationships, customization, fishing and more

Official update history
CHANGELOG
Fixed processors not always taking items from storage correctly, which should hopefully also resolve game freezes when putting an item into a processor from storage

CHANGELOG
Fixed a freeze when sleeping in the tutorial
Fixed a crash when rolling the die sometimes after sleeping
Fixed the Artisanal Merchant perk not increasing the sell price of items
Fixed the "Dodgy" perk not working
Fixed the "Waterproof" perk not working, and animals generally acting like it was raining when it hadn't
Fixed crows often eating crops even at 100% reduction
Fixed various performance slowdowns on map loading and crop harvesting
Fixed golden spoons not having a price
Fixed the Potion of Refuse clearing the Garbage Man's shop instead of restocking it
Fog Eels have a small chance to be caught with worms, and a higher chance than before with leeches

Fixed a freeze that caused the sleeping scene to continue forever
CHANGELOG
Fixed resources spawning overlapping each other
Fixed battles happening more often than other results when triggering a mining hazard
Fixed Crusader's Greaves requiring itself as a material
Fixed selecting an item in the overburdened scene not opening the discard window
CHANGELOG
Fixed bait not adding the correct rate to bait-exclusive fish (such as Leeches)
Fixed a lot of misc. missing localized text
Fishing spots will no longer try to target diagonals on controller
The tile highlight image will now hide when an event is running, making it less visually obtrusive

Fixed some audio issues relating to the radio (such as the BGM volume setting being turned down)
Fixed sprite-based mouse interaction not working properly
Fixed holding control to pick up ground decorations sometimes requiring many tries to work
Bee Houses now have a 1/3 chance to give wax

Fixed the item name tooltips not aligning correctly in the battle scene
Fixed the player starting in the wrong area (and without character customization)
Fixed an issue which caused looping dialogue when interacting with NPCs via mouse, or when holding the space bar
Some last-minute fixes before Next Fest kicks off!
If you experience any bugs, please post them in the Discussions forum, and I will fix any stragglers as they come up.
CHANGELOG
Large placeable objects now fade out when the player moves behind them (Fruit Trees, Water Wheel, Windmill, Wind Turbine)
Fixed Treasure Tentacles vanishing on map change instead of sticking around for the full day when they spawn
Added more particle effects for hitting wood/rocks and other random things
Added better mouse cursor hiding logic so the cursor will hide more easily and consistently for gamepad users
Smoothed out various map loading stutters and delays, especially when loading save files and between areas
Fixed the radio not respecting the master and BGM volume settings
Fixed the radio menu showing two selection cursors
Fixed item harvest messages sometimes showing the wrong item name
Made the item harvest messages replace each other instead of queue, meaning lots of repeated harvests will not lead to a long period of item message popups until they all finish, instead they will clear shortly after you finish harvesting
Removed 0.5x and 1.5x zoom options, as they always looked distorted. 0, 1, and 2 are still there, which are the most common anyways
Fixed rocks on the farm looping the "overburdened" message
Fixed a crash caused by pressing inputs during the boot sequence
Fixed the correct button prompts not displaying in the tutorial for SteamDeck users
Several changes were made to the boot process to make it more stable. Proton users will still need to use v9.0-4.
CHANGELOG
Fixed Molly not appearing in the workshop after her task
Added a failsafe to reduce the frequency of invisible crop sprites
