So I guess I can finally call myself a real indie game dev It's been a big dream to release a commercial game since I first got into coding, and now 15+ years later I made it happen together with my best friend No matter how this release goes, I'm damn proud of the result!

A business scales not when it gets "big" but when it gets more profitable as it gets larger.
