A lot of devs think this and then 2-3 updates in they realize they are in way over their heads and quit. The most important part of game making in this space is being consistent with your updates. The second most important thing is listening to feedback and implementing change when necessary. A lot of devs are hardheaded and get really mad if you criticize their game, but if you are someone who can't read the room and see that it's not just one guy being an asshole picking on you about one feature, but numerous people all saying the same thing, you might not even get off the ground. If you can nail those two things and maintain momentum the sky is the limit as to how far you can go.
Well... I don't fully agree about the feedback, you cannot satisfy eveyrone, that is basically impossible. In my humble opinion, the most important thing is to have a plan and know what you want to do (assuming you have all the skills and knowledge needed to develop a game). A complete vision of the game. Which sadly in most of those projects is not true. From my point of view, people develop those games "on the fly", which is one of the reasons why so many projects never ends...

I mean the game has been worked on for about 5 years now, pretty surprising it blew up that much just 4 months ago. But thanks for your answer.

Not 1, but MANY Big YT channel, plaied it and "sponsored it" (not sponsored like, beeing paied to do it...) they just tested it, and did a review of the DEMO...
And when i say MANY, i mean... like... 10/15 BIG channel did basically on the same time (why? who knows... conicidence...?)
Anyway... the patreon got TONS of New member in a super short time, and yes.... There he goes... from a around 2k a month, to a Blast of 30k+, and you know what? it will keep grow... since there are a lot of BIG news in coming... like a news map, new enemies, new Movement action, new kind of combo, steath, climing rocks... and many many more shit in coming in the next few patches...
SO.......... YES.
It's finally getting the attention it deserved from the beginning....
Immagine how the dev can feel, after 4 years of struggle... finally he is getting the attention he always wanted to get and deserved,
Personally, im super happy cuz i always supported this project from the beginning, i knew it was going to be big sooner or later.
Now that the money are coming in like the raining water, he can finally focus all his energy on the project!
Super happy about him, super happy for the project too.
Cant wait to see how it will improve! <3

Hopefully the spike in attention doesn't go to the devs head and instead goes to the game.
I do like what I have played and hope to see it completed.
Aside from trying to figure out what i still need to research, things are going okay.

Anyone knows how to remove wires?
I placed some lamps and poles and connected them to the windmill, it looked like shit so i tried to correct the placements. Unfortunately the wires just stick in the air and i have no idea how to remove them

This game is truly amazing. A single developer, occasionally supported by their community and their Patreon donations, is creating such a deep and complete game. Truly impressive!
As far as I know from what I've read on the Steam forum, HE is a SHE. which makes the game and the realization even more interesting.
I was on the official discord when I wrote my first post to see if the dev was sharing more about the game than on other platforms, and it seemed to be a "he" for me. Not that I care or that it matters imo.

Sgt Kelvin, and a few others, play it pretty often on live streams and playthroughs.
I would say HE or SHE doesn't matter so much.. in the web people could write anything not referenced to reality..
but the game is not bad for initial versions of releases, and has a good template for huge project, but the time show us how big the project would be.

When this happens fly as far up as you can then go to the unstuck option. You will be shoved up through the map.
