Hey there, I was wondering if Goofball Mode without the Extreme Mode timer is still in the game? I couldn't find it in preferences, where it used to be before today's update, and I was hoping that Extreme Mode isn't the only way to read Amber's life investment tips.

In the extras under Legacy Content, you can find all the goofball mode difficulties! The "medium" difficulty has all of Amber's investment tips, and all the other goofball mode exclusive jokes (minus a couple that are only available in extreme mode).

That said, if you dont have the DLC yet, you might want to wait until tonight's update to fix a couple errors that'll occur.

I see EZ Mode, High Speed Flower Bloom, and Extreme, is High Speed Flower Bloom what you're referring to?

I was hoping it'd be like the older Goofball Mode where the jokes were just woven into the story

Yep, High Speed Flower Bloom is the way to go.

You can play the game on Extreme mode and get all the Goofball Mode jokes woven into the story as usual. If the timers are causing you trouble, maybe after starting a game in Extreme mode (and having some patience!) you'll be able to find some Help in the game on how to skip them...?
