What can you do in Main Street?

One of the most fun things you can do in Main Street is start your own business! 

You can name your shop, choose your shop type, and unlock more shop types as you play. You can also be creative with your store - choose what items you stock, decorate the outside of your store with signs and bushes that raise your shop's popularity, change your walls/wallpaper/flooring, and furnish the inside of your store with a variety of decorations. You can also work for other players and hire/fire/give raises to players and NPCs. 

Alongside running your business, you can also gather flowers and fruits, go fishing (coming very soon), and do a variety of other leisure activities. We hope to add even more fun features throughout development!
