This mod answers a very simple question: Stardew Valley? And the only answer is YES.

Are you tired of ALWAYS having to base all colonies' economies on Yayo? It is after all the most efficient source of income when it comes to trading, far above Flake and Smokeleaf and oh my god it's all drugs... Alpha Crafts brings around 50 new artisan goods that can be used to trade with bulk good caravans, bulk orbital traders and civilized settlements:

- 50 new goods, from oil, to kombucha, to weird things like kimchi and chicha morada
- 8 research projects to unlock buildings and recipes. 7 new buildings that are in the Production architect menu
- Needs no other mods, but VE Cooking, Brewing, Plants, Fishing and all their submods just add new things to the mix, both new artisan products, and new ingredients for existing ones. Yoghurt only accepts milk and berries in base game, but with VE Plants you can use oranges instead of berries!
- Integration with such things as VE Cooking condiments and VE Brewing cocktails
- A periodic quest that can be toggled and configured via mod options that asks the player only for artisan products from this mod every two weeks
- Visual variation: different ingredients make different goods. Milk makes butter, but peanuts make peanut butter. The two butters look different, have different labels, but THEY STACK. Ohhhhh, magic.
- Different ingredients make different recipe yields, depending on produce growth periods, market price, etc
- Super balanced mostly almost. Take the numbers below with a pinch of salt. I did my due diligence though: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Uw3gr93UN1I-inyGOnIHjcK4sJWpjRi-tB1rAoyNO3A/edit?usp=sharing
- No Elliot

Q: Does this need Biotech DLC, Alpha Animals / Biomes / etc
A: No

Q: Does this work with Combat Extended?
A: Compatibility with CE is handled on their end

Q: Can colonists eat these?
A: Depends on the thing. Some of them are food. Others are condiments that you can use with Vanilla Cooking Expanded. Others are beverages that work with Vanilla Brewing Expanded's cocktail system. Some are purely just for trading.

Q: Reeee this is bloat! I like my things that add things to add less things to the thing!!!
A: Oh, this isn't even my full power!
