I can't fucking imagine that a game more addictive than drugs is not gonna success.
I surprised he was able to release it, I wouldn't have time with all my balatro games.
Roguelike is such a hit or miss, but when it hit just right, it's awesome!
The "one more try" factor is through the roof with this game.
Stories like this are what motivate people to keep working on their side projects.
