The movies in Stardew Valley are nice, cute, well-made - but let's face it, they're not Shrek. I mean, when you've gone to all that effort - completing the community upgrades, finding the Missing Bundle, dropping a cool 1000G on a ticket - you want to see something good. In fact, you want something... Shrektacular.
Well now, thanks to a new mod by presumptive genius Cofee0001, whenever you go to the Stardew Valley movie theatre there is a cast-iron, bright green guarantee of quality, as it will be showing the original (and best) Shrek film.
It's not the full movie in its entirety - that would be illegal or, if you prefer, "disreshrekful". But this lovingly curated slideshow of low-res PNGs, projected high and wide on the back of the Joja Warehouse, still has the capacity to shock, terrify and delight just like its feature-length namesake. We won't spoil it for you, but Shrek in Stardew Valley contains something of a twist. It's Shrek as you've seen him before, and then Shrek as you'll probably never be able to unsee him again.
