Kodak later added: “In the Switch port, the controls are finally as intuitive as they should be, making Stardew Valley feel more at home here than on PC or other consoles.

But we do know that Chucklefish will follow up the success of Stardew Valley with another charming indie title that looks set to be a hit.
One big project they’re working on at the moment is called Spellbound – and looks like a cross between Stardew Valley and Harry Potter.
