🎮 Installation options
You can install the CP version or the AT version, or both. I recommend installing both so you can have dragons in all colors!
Turning a 16x16 pixel sprite into a recognizable dragon was surprisingly difficult, so I hope you all like the result 😊

🤝 To other modders
It's okay to make recolored versions, but please give credit and link back!
I'd love to edit the text/dialogue quotes to show dragons instead of dinosaurs, but not quite sure how 😅
If you have ideas, I'd love to learn from you or work with you to improve this mod, and will give you due credit!

*With this module, make your Stardew Valley farm full of fantasy and raise cute baby dragons! * 🐲✨
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.
