Even then, by my understanding, that was mostly for the port and bug fixes. CA was very reluctant to give any control and did all art, musical, feature, and overall directional development himself.
I’d argue it was a recipe for burnout and generally a bad idea but this is what I remember from when I obsessively read his update blogs back then
Have you heard that ConcernedApe took a break from working on their new game to do one last big update for Stardew? Things like improvements for mod support, some more storyline dialogue, a new yearly festival/event, hats on cats/dogs!, seasonal clothing changes for NPCs, I think additional Joja content, and something else for Ginger Island. No release date confirmed yet, but CA can take as long as necessary to work on it, I’ll still be patiently and excitedly waiting!
I’m excited/concerned for the 1.6 update because a ton of mods are going to break because Content Patcher will be fully obsolete. There’s an alternative to Content Patcher and modders are tryibg to prep for the update, but it’s going to be a chaotic couple of months

If you’ve got the spare cash, it works great on Steam Deck and you two could play it together
