- Release Update - 25 July 2026
Bonjour everyone!We have an important update regarding our launch. We have made the decision to move the release date of The Witch's Bakery from 20 August to 14 October 2026.We’re very sorry for this new delay, it really wasn’t an easy decision!😥We know you all have been incredibly patient and supportive throughout the development already! And for that, first of all, we would like to thank all of you. The reasons behind this are a mix of getting more polish time and the (quite) daunting September month that’s already packed with games.😅A month away from August 20, we are still finding a few bugs here and there that make us think that we need just a liiiitle bit more time. Problem is, September is very crowded, with big games coming out, and events… and though we have 100% faith in our little witch’s appeal, we would rather not risk a competition with much bigger titles than us.We only…

- Behind the Magic ✨ | Designing Kei! - 10 April 2026
Bonjour!! ^^ We're hard at work to bring you some very exciting news! In the meantime, we'd love to share with you our (almost final!) "Meet The Characters" post!Today, let's chat about Kei! 🍳Initial sketches ✍️When we started designing Kei, we kept coming back to one question: how do you draw someone who has lost their "spark"? Tired? Drained? Exhausted?Kei is our incredible master chef, who you’ll meet in Chapter 4 of The Witch’s Bakery. His story revolves around the emotion of anger, where he challenges Lunne to be better, even though he’s struggling with his own ambition. We wanted his design to feel like a man who has seen it all, appearing a bit closed off and weary from the heat of the kitchen. In these first sketches, we played a lot with his morphology. We experimented with a variety of silhouettes, we initially associated 'tired' with leaner, angular shapes - someone who is e…

When we started designing Mawuli, we kept coming back to one question: what actually makes someone cool? Hip? Swag? WHAT'S THE RIGHT WORD??? Mawuli is a 19-year-old streamer & content creator, who will meet Lunne and help her gain popularity (and just happens to be Mirembe's big brother! 👀). He has a big personality and a natural flair for the spotlight: we wanted his design to feel bold, confident, and a little larger than life. In these first sketches, we played a lot with…

- The Witch's Bakery gives me all the fuzzy feelings of eating a fresh croissant on a warm spring morning - 24 February 2026
Few things are more healing than biting into a buttery, flaky croissant fresh out of the oven and sipping on a coffee while the warm sun hits your face. It's a feeling I've been sorely missing in these dark and gloomy winter months, but it's one that The Witch's Bakery has managed to capture excellently in its Next Fest demo, and I'm already in dire knead (I will not apologise) of more...
