Update!!
🕑 Added 2025-05-16 23:11:48 +0000 UTCHello everyone!!
It’s been over a month since ENA: Dream BBQ was released, and these past weeks have been incredibly intense.
Making a video game was something I never imagined I’d do in my life, but I truly enjoyed the journey and learned a lot along the way. The warm reception the game has received has made the whole team very happy, and we’re all so grateful to see how much fun you've had playing it!
I know many of you are eagerly waiting for a second episode as soon as possible and believe me, I’m looking forward to it just as much. But please, be patient with us.
The second chapter of the game has actually been in development alongside the first one over the past few years, and when we’re ready to pick it up again, we’ll start by improving the things we had already worked on.
There are some important steps we need to take before we resume development, such as organizing the entire project, estimating how long it might take, calculating budgets, and so on. All of this is to ensure that we can move forward in an organized way and avoid a chaotic process.
As for Patreon: while I work on organizing everything to resume the next episode, I plan to share sketch updates here—drawings I’d like to eventually post on social media.
Thank you all for your continued support!

I'll be honest, I only played the game in the first place because I thought it'd be a fun food-prep game, but MAN I loved what I got instead! I love all the art styles and the pure goofiness of the characters. In addition, as a lore-hunter, I am fully invested in those strange...dark moments, like with the vending machine guy. I'm excited to see how your game will continue, and I hope it continues to be even more popular than it is right now! Oh btw, would you like a.... Turrón?

I have 142 hours of playtime on just my first playthrough basically & still only feel like I've only gotten like a third of the vibe of the overall game, that's a HUGE amount of art to experience (I'm sure is only a tiny portion of what your total team has spent making it, it has been an honor and a privilege to see it come this far)! I have been working on a first draft of a review but It may take until the entire next chapter comes out to properly finish! Don't release something too quick or I'll never catch up (joking of course you make your own time-table and that is very respectable & tough to manage, teamwork, budgeting, directing, designing, creating, it's all a massively expensive & potentially stressful endeavor, but there's a lot of greatness in sharing your work at your own pace! (please take lots of breaks and stay healthy). I can/will if possible wait to see what else is in store except when I have to turn away from the cool ENA fandom, life is full of running from chore to store to the bottom floor the top floor to the out the door in time for work at four, such is life. Best wishes entire community of ENA, the first ever hyper fixation / fandom I joined (IN ACTIVE ONLINE interaction on SOCIAL MEDIA outside of ARGUING or professionally working, with people over POLITICS & the economy online a huge portion of my childhood & adult-hood, so I could get people in line with me getting more gaming time through actually having the money to chill and be myself in my own country, literally). I like to share more in-depth when time & money allows, very happy to be among a prideful group of crowd funders really helping make games like this possible especially when my outbursts may actually take time away from the production of the game by the game staff.

already the amount of details of stuff you can find over and over is leaving open so many interpretations that brings about so many theories and that is going to go into over load once we get the second chapter indeed xD

The first chapter was so fire and I just know the second one is gonna be even better and reveal so much more plot
