I'm happy to announce that a better and more polished demo of Ember Folks is taking part in the Ukrainian Games Festival 2026! And it also reached 2,000 wishlists, which is absolutely incredible!
I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who has wishlisted the game and taken the time to share their feedback - it genuinely helps me make Ember Folks better.
A huge thanks to the dozens of YouTubers who gave the demo a try and made videos about it — Orbital Potato, ImCade, InterndotGif, Dr_Horse, and many, many others!
With all the support and feedback I've received so far, I'm really excited to keep working on the game and make it best I can
If you haven't tried the demo yet, now is the best time to do so!
