Summary

  • Barone is knee-deep in developing Haunted Chocolatier, taking it gradually without stress.
  • Fans should focus on enjoying Stardew Valley for now, as Haunted Chocolatier’s release is still a long way off.

As a dedicated film enthusiast, I can’t hide my excitement about sitting down with the brilliant mind behind some of my favorite games, Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone. While the heartwarming charm of Stardew Valley continues to captivate many, there’s an undeniable buzz in the air about his latest creation, Haunted Chocolatier. Fans like me are eagerly awaiting updates and can hardly wait to see this mysterious project unfold into a game that will no doubt leave its mark on the gaming world.

As a devoted film enthusiast of video games, I can’t help but marvel at the extraordinary tale of success that is Stardew Valley. Crafted single-handedly by the brilliant mind behind ConcernedApe, this game has captivated countless players worldwide. Though he now boasts a small team to help manage things, it’s evident that his passion for Stardew Valley remains undiminished. Time and again, he returns to the game to roll out patches and updates, all while expressing his commitment to another project, Haunted Chocolatier.

Currently, Eric Barone has shared updates about the development of ‘Haunted Chocolatier’ in a conversation with PC Gamer. He mentioned that he’s currently fine-tuning the core part of the game, known as the vertical slice, while also creating content for the title. Barone described his current state as being “deep” in the development process and is aiming to advance gradually without pushing himself too hard.

He admitted that ‘Stardew Valley’ has reached a relatively stable phase, but he’s dedicated to not working on it until he finishes ‘Haunted Chocolatier’. However, he clarified that he won’t completely rule out returning to ‘Stardew Valley’, as he’s found himself going back to the game even after promising to focus on ‘Haunted Chocolatier’ in the past.

Haunted Chocolatier Is Still a Long Way Out

Barone mentioned that it will take some time yet before we can expect the release of Haunted Chocolatier. Meanwhile, he continues to engage with fans over Stardew Valley, which tends to divert his attention from Haunted Chocolatier. He admitted that at times he feels he should isolate himself from other distractions and even fantasized about retreating to a woodland cabin with no internet access to concentrate fully on Haunted Chocolatier. In jest, he suggested he’d be out of touch for two years while working on the game.

Barone delved further into discussing the unique aspects of the game titled “Haunted Chocolatier”, distinguishing it from “Stardew Valley”. He highlights that while both share some similarities as life simulations, his goal for “Haunted Chocolatier” is to foster a more imaginative and creative environment. This will be achieved by incorporating peculiar, intriguing elements and crafting unforgettable experiences. He hints at the introduction of such elements in “Stardew Valley”, referencing a particular trippy scene involving the wizard Rasmodius, expressing his desire for more of this eccentricity. In contrast to “Stardew Valley’s” sunny, bright, and lush setting, he aims to establish intriguing and mysterious atmospheres in “Haunted Chocolatier”.

It seems like you’re currently immersed in Stardew Valley and might want to savor the experience without worrying too much about the development pace of Haunted Chocolatier. Luckily, most fans have shown great understanding and support for the developer, allowing them the necessary time to work on their projects effectively.
