History
Candies 'n Curses is the first game from Tako Boy Studios. Developed by a team of two (and with the help of fantastic sound designer Cesar Tovar - aka Cactus Bear), Candies 'n Curses hit the App Store and Google Play Store on October 25th, 2018.
Version 1.0 was launched after 8 months of development. An additional expansion was released titled “Curse Crusher” the following Spring, adding 6 new difficult stages and remixed bosses to conquer, as well as additional flashlights, charms, candies and curses for players to experiment with.
Development concluded with the final major content update in June 2020, which added a variety of costumes to purchase for the main character, Molli Pop. With over 1.5 million downloads across both storefronts, Candies ‘n Curses continues to foster an active, passionate community of players!
