For those unfamiliar and who hasn’t seen my comments on this game before:

The developer of this game is using assets and the same game engine from Stardew Valley for this game with blessings from ConcernedApe. So if you were wondering why the screenshots, aesthetic, and some of the assets look extremely familiar, that would be why.

Actually I thought Stardew was a solo project and was worried Haunted Chocolatier got shelved.

Did I read the article? Of course not

It originally was, but he brought people for some of the post launch updates.

According to previous posts on the subject, with absolutely zero effort by me to verify that they aren't lies.

You're not missing much. Just says the dev worked on Stardew, when it will release and a copy and pasted overview of the game from the steam page.

I thought Stardew Valley was a one man show, but this isn't by ConcernedApe, did he end up hiring staff?

Apparently this developer was brought on specifically for the 1.4 and 1.5 updates.

Ah that make sense!

Is that Southpaw?

Looks like Bob’s Game is finally becoming a reality.
