So since I have (had?) a perfection file in Stardew, here's what I can see that's new in 1.6 right off the bat!

There are two new menu tabs. One tracks your animals, and the other tracks your special items. It looks like there are a lot of new special items, too!

The farmer tab now has a few helpful trackers for which bundles you've completed, your house upgrade level, what floor you've reached in the mines, and the number of stardrops you've collected! I have no clue what the star gauge is for! :D It might be something entirely new, because I don't know why else it would be empty on a perfection file. I also have no idea if the little trees in the corner mean anything. Possibly it is a seasonal thing? On my other file, they're palm trees instead of pine trees, so I assumed it related to Ginger Island.

As for the collections tab, there are 10 new shippable items, 4 new fish, no new artifacts or minerals, 1 new cooking recipe, 9 new achievements, and 2 new secret notes :0

There are also several interesting new crafting recipes, but I haven't dug through to find them all! There are also probably more waiting to be found as I play. The ones I'm excited about are the tent kit (looks like a one-time use, portable sleep spot so you don't pass out!) and both the bait maker and deluxe worm bin (I love fishing). The crafting tab has also been organized really neatly in a way that I appreciate! It's visually AND logically appealing :D

There are also several mentions of moss and forest neighbors(?) that are very much intriguing me! If you're reading this, you probably know what this stuff is about, but I just opened up the game! I can't wait to find out :DDD
