Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland
New All Endings Notes
[Updated 7 Feb 2024]

NOTES
- USE THE 1-HEART HORSE CUTSCENE FOR ALL WEATHER CS TRICKS
- Cow matures after 7 sleeps
- Cow sells for a base 3000G, 4000G if 100 affection, 5000G if 200 affection
- Chicken sells for 300G regardless of affection
- Chicken needs 220 affection to produce Golden Egg and gains +12 for every sunny day outside
- Cow needs 220 affection to produce Golden Milk and gains +6 for every sunny day outside
- PTW for HR gets 150G for each rep; 7 reps = 1050
- Seeds for each TH cost 960G (8 tomato, 6 corn, 9 potato, 9 breadfruit)
- Costs:
	> Cake Contest: 4800G (cow, chicken, milker; can save 450G if you incubate an egg for the chicken
	> THI+II: 1920G (8 tomato, 6 corn, 9 potato, 9 breadfruit for each)
	> Fishy Story: 4500G (S.F. rod)
	> Goddess Dress: 3000G (Silk Thread)
	> Total: 14220G
- The order of the first five endings makes sense--HR > CC > FS > EW > AS. But the horse feels really slow for BB and GD, since they are the Wed/Sat endings, and a lot of time would be lost by trying to preserve the horse as well as traveling to the non-Wed/Sat locations. It feels like the horse is important for THII (as Dia is so far away), and probably THI as well, but this may mean that an order like THII > THI > GD > BB is best, letting the horse (and dog) die some point at the beginning of GD. Have to doublecheck if Gina or Katie are affected by animal death.
- Consider harvesting some portion of the Treasure Hunt crops to gift Gina during Goddess Dress; could use some for money too. This way you could use the Fish L from Fishy Story for her TH2 gifts, then crops could cover her TH1+GD gifts.
- Count how many PCMs and CBs you would have after the foraging in the early endings.

********************************************
- At this point, you should have almost exactly enough money for the remaining endings; Milk L can be used as a neutral gift for many villagers or can be sold for 300G
- Other than the required money, it's good to have money for backup Animal Medicine
- It will probably be necessary to buy Honey for Bob as well; you could give him a Golden Milk instead, but the Golden Milk can be sold for the value of two Honeys
