The day I bought this game, I spent the entire day playing it. Actually had to force myself to uninstall the game to study for a test I had that week.

Met him briefly at PAX West in Seattle.

he was in the small ball room upstairs for small indie game devs

This was just after Stardew released and blew up a few months prior

I'm guessing he had paid his vendor fee months in advance, and decided to still show up

He was nice and chill with everyone and seemed really happy talking to people about his game

its kind of funny to think even after Valves cut, he was most certainly a millionaire at that point. standing in a small ballroom with a tiny one table booth and one computer setup showing off his game and talking to people

I like to think there were douche bags walking by thinking "that guy/game will never make it" when he already blew up lol
