Hello everyone, As the developer of Farm Keeper, I wanted to address some recent discussions that have arisen regarding the difficulty levels in the game. First and foremost, I apologize for any discomfort caused by the previous use of the term "Asian" for the hardest difficulty setting. It was never my intention to offend or marginalize anyone; rather, I used the word in reference to Steven He's content, which, as an Asian myself, I interpreted as a form of praise. However, I realize that my oversight in this matter inadvertently led to some people feeling uncomfortable, and for that, I am truly sorry. The ultimate goal of Farm Keeper has always been to create joy and happiness to players of all backgrounds. I deeply value the feedback and concerns raised by members of the community and want to assure you all that your voices are heard and respected. If any aspect of the game causes distress, it is my responsibility as the developer to address and rectify it. I also want to clarify that, in our conversation, Olexa had no intention of being judgmental at all. He was simply relaying the feedback he received from the community, which included valid concerns. It is my own decision to make necessary changes to ensure that Farm Keeper remains a positive and inclusive space for everyone. And the community feedback, support and understanding are essential in this process. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Sincerely, Napas
Man, I found your channel by chance and I'm glad I did. I absolutely love the type of content that you upload. I use your content to find recommendations on which roguelike games to play
If you leave 1 fully grown pumpkin on the tiles above and below the house they will spread to empty tiles every day, so you don't need to keep planting and watering them
I think Asian Difficulty was supposed to be a reference to one of the most known Steven He videos where a game has Asian Difficulty that is incredibly difficult. Of course Steven is of asian descent and the whole video is a parody of chinese stereotypes. His whole channel is, in fact. Funny stuff.
you should make a diagonal line of mountains, a tractor, and a weather machine off the edge of your well circle (that has a pump in the center) to maximize the coastal surface available and also avoid all of that stuff getting in the way of expanding your other operations
the clover helps a TON with finding the golden egg. PLUS, the incubator is actually cracked now if you can get a good luck build going, as with like 40-60 clovers, you're almost guaranteed golden eggs. It's not great late game, but early and mid-game it's REEEALLY good. some of the best value-per-tile I've found aside from some other secret tiles, like hotels or horses
I loved this episode! It was basically the "Just one more achievement" run. Whenever it was about to end there was another achievement to get. Also this game is pretty fun to watch!
I like how you go “you’re prolly screaming at me for doing something wrong” in every series and I’m just sitting here, clueless as ever n watching you mainly for your commentary, you’re voice is soothing
seeing how the pumpkin work, i think it is the best plant to surround windmill with, cuz essentially you can wind up to 16 pumpkin with a single windmill
No need for windmill, if you put 1 pumpkin in the center of a 3x3 area it will spread to all 8 surrounding tiles giving you 8 free pumpkins every day, can't go faster than 1 day so windmill is bad, but farm market is good for double money
the fishing boats might work better if you let them go for a little while before harvesting. They catch one fish a day, but they might keep their fish from day to day, so the longer you wait, the more $$$ you'll get for the energy spent clicking on them... I don't own the game yet but i'll experiment with that when i do!
@@OlexaYT i love watching your gameplay and listening to you cuz i think you give off good energy. but also your reading skills while recording lead you down many wrong paths lol (this is kindhearted as a jab, please dont be mad :P)
Is the fruit tree worth it at all? considering it costs 1 stam to collect the fruit.... I'm sure just taking the wood and farming the tile with anything else is more worth. (that is, before cider, ofc.)
It's not, that's the main reason why he does it. Notice that he also ignored that this game treat adjacent as around and plant pumpkins everywhere. It's a globally bad move so he does it.
Pretty much. Fruit trees are fine once you unlock cider but they’re complete shit otherwise. This game is much more of a roguelike than people think, it’s about getting objectives and completing challenges, less about winning. The optimal strategy isn’t always the best way to play.
@@OlexaYT Cool! So you have to harvest fruit for a while to unlock the cider, so that's the reason to get fruit, makes sense. Thanks! Nice achievement hunt run there, too :D
. F F FRRR FR[I]GF FRRR F F Where G is goose in a pond, [I] is incubator, R is ranch, and F is farms. Step sequence > Goose on the water eats a carrot and makes an egg > incubator takes the egg and makes 7 more geese in the ranches > 7 new geese eat 7 carrots making 7 eggs> sell all 7 eggs + 7 geese. Good profit flow that can pump close to 200 a day just on that, from a single initial goose
Lots of people complaining about people complaining about the Asian difficulty joke. IT ALL HAS TO DO WITH THE VIBES OF THE GAME. Just look at the game, does it look like a game to make race jokes. In contrast, look at South Park games, they can get away with this because its their shtick, the crude juvenile pull-no-stops humor. Btw, I'm Asian and I'm tired of that overrused stereotypical meme
I told the dev just as a heads up that it can come off racist as many people in my community brought it up to me while I was streaming it. I didn’t tell the dev they can’t do it or anything like that, just informing how it looks from an outsider’s perspective looking in.
You missed the joke about asian difficulty, it was probably a reference to steven he, and an actual occurance, asian people tend to have a higher iq, and because of that they find games EXTREMELY easy even if they are hard to the rest of the world, a lot of the time asian games will have 2 versions, one which remains in asia and the other that is made easier for america and other parts of the world, sometimes the difference is as drastic as enemies having half the health
I mean sure, it’s a joke. It wasn’t intended to be racist. But for the large majority of the world that has no clue what the joke is, on the surface it’s just stereotyping. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Pretty sure that whole "Asian difficulty" joke is funny to Asians and the only people who find it offensive are non-asian white people thinking it's racist... I could be wrong, I'm white. But that trope of 'white people getting angry over racist things that said race finds hilarious' is so fuckin' common...
@@OlexaYT I apologize then, but my scenario is pretty typical... white people getting offended before the actual race and causing drama is ...painfully common. Still, sorry.
@@OlexaYT I'm right about white people always making a big deal of racism when the actual people don't find it racist, yeah. It happens all the time! White people got MAD about Mexican Mario but the Mexicans LOVED it. White people got mad at that girl dressing in geisha clothes but JP people came out and said they were totally okay with it. In this particular case? I seem to be wrong, if actual asian people find that offensive then I apologize and I am in the wrong, y'know? I suppose it would be an annoying stereotype.
Because its a cutesy game, having a race joke is just poor taste. Contrast this south park games, they can get away with it because its a crude game overall.
I didn’t “whine” at the dev. I informed the dev that people in my chat took it poorly while I was streaming and I wanted to let him know before his game gets review bombed or something. He then went and changed it.

its ok dude you're asian
sad that people have no sense of humor
people that are not asians are probably the only ones that found it offensive, which makes no sense
@@Ismcant Yeah if I made a game I would do some stereotypes from my country
Man, I found your channel by chance and I'm glad I did. I absolutely love the type of content that you upload. I use your content to find recommendations on which roguelike games to play
wise choice you make there buddy
I love the complete 180 of the incubator

Everything is racist now. Try not to be funny. You can hurt some one's feelings.
for the boats it is better to have them in a checkerboard with wells because they need to be adjacent to land
you should make a diagonal line of mountains, a tractor, and a weather machine off the edge of your well circle (that has a pump in the center) to maximize the coastal surface available and also avoid all of that stuff getting in the way of expanding your other operations

it helps with finding bigger fish, and lottery machine to
I loved this episode! It was basically the "Just one more achievement" run. Whenever it was about to end there was another achievement to get. Also this game is pretty fun to watch!
"Iiiiiiii don't want to hear it"
"Don't say a word"
"I don't wanna talk about it"
OK Olexa, I won't. I'll stand here and smile :)
I like how you go “you’re prolly screaming at me for doing something wrong” in every series and I’m just sitting here, clueless as ever n watching you mainly for your commentary, you’re voice is soothing
I watced your other video literally 5 seconds ago. I was so happy to see anther video straight away! :)
Tyler stressing out about the inevitable angry comments telling him he messed up is comedy gold
Love your videos! I’m a new veiwer but I love your stuff, keep it up.
Seconded
The little duck stares into my soul... I love it. Is your trip fun? :)
Love this series! I hope it continues.

Don’t believe it costs any energy to harvest the fishing boats
@@OlexaYT well egg on my face then
"I think i know what I'm doing" *proceeds to waste 2 energy points by not using the free tile next to a water tile*
You need to have one area with consistent gathering of money and make to the sides the complex combos
You should always get more wells and pipes
I gotta watch! I need more farm keeper
Unlocking the Weather Station is a big energy saver
"I want to mess around with pumpkins." - Olexa 2023
Medicine Maker near the Herb Pots!
Dang, the duck incubator combo is actually busted now
best strat late game is to only have clovers and the lottery machines it makes around 2k a day
Mushrooms are honestly kind of nuts
Sounds like both sides addressed the issues civilly in the end. Rare these days.
i know your on a trip, but i think that placing pumpins in every space is not optimal? dont they spread when they reach full size?
Oh yeah it’s absolutely idiotic. But we were literally winning so hard, why waste time optimizing?

I was a little thrown back by the Asian difficulty too. lmao
This seems more suited for mobiles rather than PC 🤔
lmao telling a asian they cant use the word asian, peak comedy
