Fireflies are passive Mobs that only appear during Nighttime. Individually, they produce Sparkles on the Flowers that they land on. Fireflies band together to generate various Items for the player.
As soon as Nighttime begins, a group of eight fireflies will spawn above the Star Hall. These fireflies will then fly to a random Field. Fireflies can fly to the Spider Field, Bamboo Field, Strawberry Field, Pineapple Patch, Cactus Field, or the Rose Field. Once they reach the designated field, they will land randomly in a circle, facing towards the center.
The player can nudge a firefly off its position by walking close to it, forcing it to fly up. They will fly up if a player is within a 3-flower radius. If a firefly is nudged away, the flower the firefly sat on will generate sparkles. When all eight fireflies are nudged away and fly up, the following might appear in the middle of the firefly formation:
- Moon Charms (in increments of 1, 5, 10).
- Treats (in increments of 1, 5, 10).
- Glitter (very rare).
- Star Jelly (extremely rare).
- Night Bell (extremely rare).
- Waxing Moon Crescent Sticker (extremely rare).
- Glowing Smile Sticker (extremely rare).
- Star Treat (exceptionally rare).
The fireflies will continue this cycle in one Field three times, and afterward, will target a new Field. This cycle repeats until daytime arrives. When daytime arrives, they will fly back above the Star Hall and eventually despawn.
