Have you ever wanted to experience Stardew Valley from right to left?

Mirror mode

🎮 **It’s finally here! ** After years of waiting, our prayers to Yoba have finally been answered. The mod that lets us experience Stardew Valley in a whole new way has arrived!

---

🌟 Module function

Mirror Mode will **completely** flip your Stardew Valley experience on its head:

  • 🗺️ **The map is completely mirrored** - left becomes right, right becomes left
  • 👥 **NPC itinerary mirror** - NPCs that originally walked to the right will now walk to the left
  • 🎭 **Event scene mirroring** - All events are rearranged according to mirroring logic
  • 🏠 **Important Building Mirroring** - Key buildings such as farmhouses and greenhouses have been mirrored

💡 **Usage Tips**: You need to change your habits and walk left from the farmhouse to reach the bus station and other places in Pelican Town!

⚠️ Notes

**Incompletely mirrored content:**

  • 🖥️ The user interface remains basically the same
  • 💬 Dialogue text is not mirrored to ensure readability
  • 🔧 A large amount of hard-coded content in the game cannot be automatically mirrored

**Archiving Requirements:**

  • 📝 **STRONGLY RECOMMENDED TO USE A NEW SAVE**
  • 💾 **Be sure to back up existing saves** (The author emphasizes three times!)
  • 🏗️ Movable objects and spawns in existing saves will not be mirrored

---

🔧 Compatibility

**Good News**: Compatibility with the Stardew Valley expansion is the same as with the original game!

**Bad News**: Compatibility with the Stardew Valley expansion is the same as with the original game!

✅ **Compatible content:**

  • Any module map, event, itinerary
  • NPC location, map/tile attributes
  • Most animated sprites

❌ **Incompatible Content:**

  • Hardcoded content in the mod

---

🎯TASer tool

TAS (Temporary Animation Sprite) is an animation effect that appears temporarily in the game, such as smoke, sword light, water bubbles, etc.

**TASer Features:**

  • 🎮 Default key F2 (can be modified in config.json)
  • ✨ Press the shortcut key on the abnormal TAS to "clear" it
  • 📁 The cleared TAS will be added to the "TAS cache" and will no longer be mirrored in the future.
  • 🔄 Cache is saved across game sessions

Your TAS cache has been pre-installed with some important TAS discovered during testing, and will continue to improve with use!

  • 🚫 This mod will no longer be developed, updated or supported
  • 🎪 Enjoy existing features or not use them at all
  • 💾 Again: please back up your archives!

**Source code:** GitHub repository

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
