A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Go Go Town on steam came out recently, co-op available local or online, controller compatible, up to 4 players (aside: you didn't tell us how many players needed, but stardew is 4 so I'm going to assume a 4 max isn't a problem). Not sure on system requirements, might be a little heavier than stardew but it's not all that graphically intense. Had a blast playing it local co-op with the kids.
Gameplay loop is familiar: extract resources to grow your town, unlock higher tiered buildings, eventually automating most of the logistics such that it runs itself like a little town simulator. The game is very casual friendly and forgiving, for example, you can freely just pick up and move a building, no reconstruction or lost costs, you can't really "die", and if you need to step away, shops might run out of inventory and stop producing but they won't death spiral or anything.
