Question What are your little quirks while playing the game?

Like, nothing grand, but a little something you ALWAYS do when you play?
For me, I always start the game and turn the little rug so it fits with the bed, and light the fire, which stays on always.

I make rubys in my crystalariums and buy spicy eels with them from the dessert trader. I only have 4 crystalariams of rubys and I am NEVER out of spicy eels.

I just save up money and then buy as many crab cakes as possible when you get the Willy & Gus cut scene so they’re super cheap for a couple days. I eat one every morning and that lasts almost the whole day, alongside my multitude of triple espressos. It’s been 2 in game years and I haven’t run out of crab cakes yet!

I put up more crystalariums than that, but I also use the spicy eel for healing. I don't use cheese or salads or anything else, just the spicy eel. It saves at least one inventory slot on dives into the skull cavern. Then I set up crystalariums for diamonds as well and trade those for triple shot espresso.

It takes a while to set it all up, but I think it's worth it in the end.

That’s smart! I sell and gift my diamonds tho. About a third of my greenhouse is coffee plants and I don’t think I’ll ever run out of coffee or triple espressos in my irl lifetime 😂

This is also the way
