In the interview, he discussed his collaboration with an indie-pop band, as well as his upcoming game. While it’s encouraging to hear anything at all about the game’s progress, the news isn’t great: development has begun, and it’ll be a while before the game releases. Barone, however, discussed how he still has high hopes for the game. He said: From the start, Barone has made it clear that Haunted Chocolatier will offer a different experience to players than Stardew Valley. In the interview, he alluded to the fact that the game’s unique characteristics leave “a lot of wiggle room there to add crazy stuff. Haunted Chocolatier will reportedly focus on magic and combat. When asked why he made the choice to include more fight scenes in Haunted Chocolatier, Barone explained: The game may be far off, but it’s encouraging to see the developer has ambitious goals, and it’ll be interesting to see how they pan out. Until then, let us know in the comments what you expect from the game and whether you think the game will follow its predecessor’s footsteps.
