Is there a way to increase movement speed?

Solution 1:

If you want to increase your running speed, you can buy Coffee in the Saloon for $300, which will increase your running speed for two minutes. Make sure to stock a lot of those if you are going for this option.

You also have the possibility to use some cooking recipes to craft the following items :

• A Pepper Poppers for 1 Hot Pepper and 1 Cheese
• A Spicy Eel for 1 Eel and 1 Hot Pepper
• A Super Meal for 1 Bok Choy, 1 Cranberry and 1 Hazelnut.

All of those will also add one point to your speed for a certain amount of time.

Later in the game, you can also obtain a horse as soon as you will have built a Stable. The stable comes with the horse when you buy it which is an added bonus.

Solution 2:

There's four ways:

• Pepper Poppers (+1 Speed for ~6 min 30 sec)

• Spicy Eel (+1 Speed for idk how long)

• Coffee (+1 Speed for ~1 minute)

• Horse (Costs 10000G, 100 hardwood (get it from the secret forest), and 5 iron bars, increases movement speed by 30%)

Remember that +1 Speed and Horses stack, so you can literally go SANIC FAST!

Also, as mentioned, the minecarts are an awesome way to move around. You can instantly travel to the mines, the bus stop, the other side of town by the blacksmith, and the quarry (if you've unlocked it).
