There's a quaint little action RPG buried somewhere in Stardew Valley, though combat has never been the focus of the game. But that didn't stop modder Ilyaki f💎rom making a battle royale mod for it - and yes, of course it's called Battle Royalley, what else? 

Battle Royalley is exactly what it sounds like: a battle royale-style figh꧑t to the death set in peaceful ol' Stardew Valley. "Everyone will be scattered over Stardew Valley at the start of the game," Ilyaki said . "You can find swords, slingshots, bombs, healing items and sometimes horses or even hats in chests spawned around the map. Chop trees and craft fences to use as cover." I wonder if developer Eric 'ConcernedApe' Barone saw this coming when he first announced Stard༒ew Valley multiplayer? 

It's pretty simple as battle royale goes, but Battle Royalley has chests to loot and bushes to hide behind, and as far as I'm concerned that's the meat and potatoe๊s of battle royale. Hell, it's even got a pl🎃ayer-killing storm that closes in as time goes on. (Ilyaki advises unlocking the mines, railroad, and beach bridge in the world generation to make getting around easier.) 

The mod also supports up to 100 players, provided you tinker with its settings and convince 99 of your closest friends to install the thing. Most importantly, it finally lets us say the following line with total seriousness: last farmer standing wins. The question is, could you somꦏehow pair it with in multiplayer to create the biggest farming free-🌠for-all in history? Probably not, but man, that would be cool. 

Eric Barone is putting his new game on hold and forming a new dev team so he has time to make more Stardew Valley.
