Everafter Falls is now entering the content-lock phase so next month will be focusing on smashing bugs! Here is the amazingly talented developer behind Everafter Falls, Ou to talk about what he has been working on!

Cooking requires some prep and timed mechanics. There is also a mini game where you must serve up as many dishes to hungry townsfolk!

There are Alpha and Beta testers that have still stuck with me right from the beginning and the contributions they have made to get the game to where it is today cannot be understated. The progress on the console ports is advancing smoothly, with Akupara Games diligently working on the porting, submission, and approval of builds for all three consoles. Collaborating with Akupara has been such a blessing. Seeing the work involved in porting and securing approval for the game’s release on each console and knowing I don’t need to deal with any of it, is such a huge burden taken off me.
