Emil Macko

**Emil Macko** (**Emil "Ace" Macko** in full) is one of the Five Nights at Freddy's fan games developers featured in The Fazbear Fanverse. He is the creator of the Five Nights at Candy's series, and is currently working on *Five Nights at Candy's 4* for the Fanverse project.

## Description

Emil Macko started getting into game development since around 2010 when he was inspired by *Minecraft*, the indie video game that became extremely popular around that time. On 2015, being inspired by the Five Nights at Freddy's series, he designed his own animatronic and named it Candy. After creating several more characters, he decided to fit all the casts into a game, which now becomes *Five Nights at Candy's*.

After the game became popular in the FNaF community, the game now becomes a series. Several sequels for *Five Nights at Candy's* was made. In 2018, Emil also teamed up with Kane Carter and Sian Mewburn (also known as Turntail) with the name of Team EKS to develop games together. Their initial debut was supposed to be *Chef Wanted*, a game made for a gamejam event, but it was eventually cancelled due to The Fazbear Fanverse and what's left of it has later turned into *CHASE: Animatronics*. In 2020, Scott contacted Emil, and he now joins The Fazbear Fanverse, and is making *Five Nights at Candy's 4*, the last entry of the franchise.
