Lani is a laid-back, socially awkward chatterbox who can't stop rambling once you get her started. Video games and internet happenings are her lifeblood; you'll usually find her embroiled in a game on her Bintendo Switch, or playing on her gaming PC.

Underneath the sarcastic quips, old online references and embarrassing stories is a woman who just wishes to get her creative spark back.

After failing to get a start in the game art industry 3 years prior, Pine Mesa native Lani moved to Sunberry for a 'change in scenery'. The artist-turned-IT-technician decided to get a job in the burgeoning tech field instead of pursuing her creative endeavors. A relatable story featuring the tales of struggling with life fulfillment, burnout, and learning to let go of the past.

Compatible with all major expansions (SVE, RSV, ES, VMV, etc!)

This mod includes: randomized dialogue, seasonal outfits, 2/4/6/8/10 heart events, crossover events with Sunberry Village and Pelican Town residents, quests, special orders, and new items!

Credits and Special Thanks
  • Max, for creating Sunberry Village and allowing me a spot in your wonderful mod. Lani's been three years in the making and I'm so glad you allowed me to take this journey with you!
  • Wildflour, for so, so many things. Holding me accountable, motivating me to try writing events, and being one of the main reasons this mod even got finished. You've been my rock through these trying times. You gave me the confidence to explore so many new things (notably machine rules). You're insane for singlehandedly creating those WAG machine rules, btw. Also, you're the best.
  • Hime, for letting me use my commission as a base for this wonderful NPC several years ago, and assisting with updating the art! Also, for the gorgeous HxW tilesheets present in my house, and letting me have a crossover with Sterling in my silly little events. 
  • Arknir, for helping me with events and answering all of my silly questions. We helped each other develop our NPCs' characters and I love that for us. You scope creeped the hell outta me with events and CTs, but it made my mod that much better. Also, huge thanks for bringing more hot men into this game.
  • Erin and Rikai, for keeping me company in VC late at night while I was avoiding working on my mod. You guys are great moral support and encouraged my nonsense.
  • Clara, for being the greatest supporter known to man. Your cheering and amazingly well-timed GIFs encouraged me to keep working on creating something awesome. Your art makes me so jazzed every time I see it.
  • Tai, for creating Vanilla Tweaks and some of my furniture items, and allowing me to use them in my tilesheets and graphics. You've singlehandedly raised my standards for art and I love you.
  • Airyn, for helping me develop Lani's character when I felt lost in the sauce, and for Lani's AMAZING sprites! You got me back on track with what I wanted to do with Lani's story.
  • Tia, for also helping develop Lani's character and giving feedback every step of the way. Your encouragement went a long way! I admire you a lot and I'm honored to release a mod alongside you.
  • Lumina, for providing insight into Lani's storyline and allowing me to use her tilesheets in my mod. 
  • Soph, for fulfilling my silly little C# whims and putting extremely specific features in Sunberry. 
  • Sheku, for helping me bugtest and troubleshoot all sorts of nonsense with modmaking. 
  • PlatinumCats, for allowing me to use some of her Rattan Furniture graphics in my tilesheets!
  • The Beta Testing Squad, for (obviously) beta testing and helping me work out the errors in my mod! Couldn't have done it without y'all.
