Replaces friendship jewels of dateable characters in Stardew Valley with Harvest Moon inspired hearts
I liked the idea of replacing the friendship indicator with hearts like in Harvest Moon. However, only bachelors/bachelorettes have hearts in the original games (at least in DS, the part I played the most). So I decided to make my own mod.
Because I am probably not allowed to use Ran's assets and I'm too shy to ask, I had to do my own pixelart. For a first time, this is not bad, I kinda like it how it turned out. I tried to imitate the game's look as close as possible, meaning I used the same color palette and the light coming from the side. To highlight the difference between the purple and iridium, I copied the golden box.
This works with all NPCs the game considers to be dateable (meaning also custom ones). That means Krobus keeps his dot :(
Works with Stardew Valley 1.5. Multiplayer is not tested as I no one to try out with but it should work in theory.
Obviously, this mod is not compatible with Ran's hearts.
Visual Studio automatically copies the mod into the game's Mods folder when hitting Build (Ctrl+Shift+B). Alternatively, unpack the zip from the releases page into the mod folder.
To uninstall it, simply remove it from the Mods folder.

Inspired by Ran's Hearts.
Big thanks to Pathoschild for providing the API and being a massive help on the Stardew Valley Discord Server.
Special thanks to ConcernedApe for making such a beautiful game.
Thank you for using this mod.
Feel free to contact me if you find bugs or have other issues. I'll try to fix them ASAP.
I made a rather minimal version to use for myself but I'm looking forward to suggestions.
