Maker Machines have taken many forms in each Story of Seasons game. These Makers process animal products and crops into a variety of items to be sold or used in crafting. However, Pioneers of Olive Town Makers have a few issues which could be improved upon. Like in Stardew Valley, each one of Pioneers of Olive Town Makers can process one item at a time, with the duration varying depending on the value of the product. Twenty of each Maker can be placed on a player's farm to help speed up the process, but with dozens of Makers available, this can quickly lead to a farmstead overrun by Maker Machines. The biggest problem is that almost every resource must be processed to be used, including the lumbar for building and ingots smelted from ores. Because Makers are such an important part of gameplay, cutting them back greatly slows down progress. The issue with space could be improved with sheds to place the Makers in, instead of having a player's farm become an industrial park for processing goods.
