📋 About This Mod

Starblue Valley has always been my favorite recolor mod, but it has unfortunately gone abandoned for about three years now. I decided I would update Starblue Valley to 1. 6 (and update leftover 1. 5 content) so I could keep using it for myself, but also to share it with the other Starblue lovers out there.

This is a Work in Progress! A lot of tilesheets still need to be updated.

I intend to update this as quickly and as regularly as I and others are able until everything is converted!

Updated items have been moved to the Changelog to prevent this page from getting huge, please check there for specifics on things that have been updated. :)

Due to how Starblue Valley was setup, I had to port the old assets into this mod in order to get some things functioning right. Because of this, you need ONLY this mod and not the original Starblue Valley. However I want it to be noted that Starblue Valley belongs to Lita/Strangelyliteral, and I do not claim any ownership of their work!

If they return and wish for this mod to be taken down, it will be done so without question.

Bugs:

If you encounter any bugs or notice any issues, please let me know via the bugs tab and I will get to it asap!
