An incredibly dedicated fan has created aStardew Valleyinspired watch-face for WearOS, incorporating the game’s key art and graphics. Since its release back in 2016, this popular life and farming sim has quickly become a favorite for fans, allowing a respite from the world that’s relaxed and yet vast in content. With constant free updates and love, it’s no surprise that nearly a decade later this game still remains just as much of a hit.
The talentedbrueqqejust shared their very ownStardewValley-themedWearOS watch face, pulling together recognizable assets from the game for a cute design. With a dark mode that showcases just a cute Junimo and the time in the game’s font, players can subtly represent their beloved game. The main watch face has much more than that though, with the game’s key background art behind information for the current date, time, battery, steps, day progress, season, and calendar events, making it a solid choice all around.
Stardew Valley Fans Show No End Of Creativity
Bring Stardew Valley Everywhere You Go
Stardew Valleydoes some really interesting things with time in-game, which makes it the perfect option for a smartwatch face. Players will already know how important it is to track all the elements in-game that a smartwatch does in real-life: not just the time (to make sure you’re not leaving the mines too late!), but also the weather and seasons to make the most of growing your crops andcompleting the Community Centeras fast as possible.

Incorporating the game’s key energy and health bars to track the battery on your watch and phone, the time and date elements, the clock’s day progress semicircle, and more, there’s so much available in a condensed but beautiful design. Users can even see their steps and temperature easily too, somehow fitting all of this information in without overwhelm.
I’m Worried Stardew Valley Is Holding Its Creator Back From Another Masterpiece
ConcernedApe is currently developing a new game, but lengthy update processes for Stardew Valley have gotten in the way for almost a year.
Even the background will change depending on day and night through sunrise and sunset, though the temperature icon currently doesn’t change based on the actual weather. There’s even a neat little feature for the journal icon to be displayed whenever a daily calendar event is available, making it easy to check what’s going on. WithConcernedApe working tirelesslyto support the game, it’s nice to see how the fans continue to give back and keep it alive themselves.
Fan-Made Stardew Valley Theme Not Available On All Smartwatches
iOS and Garmin Will Have To Wait And See
Unfortunately for many,this WatchOS design is limited to Samsung only,with many players requesting it to be made available on iOS and Garmin watches. As the game recently hit over41 million copies sold, it’s no surprise that this design would be so popular with a large crowd across varying devices. While the developer hasn’t commented on its availability across platforms,remillardsuggests that"if OP is okay sharing the assets, it might not be too difficult [to add to Garmin]."
This isn’t the first time thatStardew Valleyfans have made gorgeously inspired designs for fans to represent either, as another big fan created their owndynamic wallpapersfor the game.
