🎯 Design Concept
I've always liked Poltergeister's original enhanced character sprites, but their sprites often didn't match my chosen Nyapu portrait mod. Thanks to their generous resource usage policy, I adjusted Poltergeister's sprite to match Nyapu's portrait by color matching, painting the costume, and adjusting it to my taste.
During this process I started drawing the sprite from a base of my own, just to really customize the character to better fit my vision. This quickly outgrew the original scope of the mod! Since returning from break, I've decided to split my work into two mods - the Nyapu Colored Sprites for Eunoia (this mod!) and the Eunoia Sprites project, the latter of which will be my new focus in the future.

🚀 Future plans
- Player character recolor
- Recoloring for babies and toddlers
- SVE recolor
Other expansions may eventually follow, but this is not the current focus until SVE is completed.

🔧 Troubleshooting
When adding a mod to an existing save, the changes may not load correctly. This can be solved by changing the configuration to different options and then back again. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- 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.
