How much money did you spend buying that game for everybody?

This is why you never have money near the end of a paycheck.

My weekend was good. My weekend was good. Yeah. You know, put in some work on this little on this Nick Locke 2.0.

NickLock 2.0. It's in development. You know, a good game is never canceled. It's only delayed. That's good, that's good. So I've been working on that. And then I tested out some multi-streaming, doing the Twitch and YouTube simultaneous things. I watched them both. I played so much Hyper Light Breaker. I have 36 hours in this game already. It's like not...

It's wild that I put that much time in it because it's a game that I'm obviously really, really enjoying while I can see all the faults. And not even faults, it's just like this game's early, right? I think Hyper Light Breaker is unfortunately being released in a time where Baldur's Gate 3 was in early access and so is Hades 2. And you have all of these big, massive games being released now.

That feel very, very complete and kind of like feature ready. You know, there's some content that isn't quite there. Hyper Light Breaker, I think it's a lot of freaking fun. And it's so early in development that I'm so happy that I'm still finding the fun, even though there's a lot of stuff that still needs to be developed for it.

Well, I mean, the point of early access is to put out a game in hopes that your fan base trusts you and you say, hey, have this early money for a game that is still in development that I know still needs time, a year and a half, maybe two years of development. I'm going to give you all money. I'm kind of like mortgaging this, right? Here's some money because I believe in what you can make.

I am investing in this product right now. And if I want to be further into the sort of co-development with you all, with giving you all notes and things like that, even better. And yeah, it will turn some fans away. I think the Steam reviews were mixed at some point because I think there's a lot of good feedback. There's a lot of good constructive feedback that I've seen on the Steam pages.

And I'm like, yeah, that would be great. That would be great. And it's a lot of people that are just totally rational. And there's some people that... may have bought the game and are like, hey, why doesn't it have this feature? It's like, well, it's early access for a reason. You're not buying a demo of the game. You are sort of investing in the development of this game with us.

And, you know, that could turn some people off. That's not for everybody. I get it. I understand not wanting to give money to a game that is not complete yet, but I am having a lot of fun with the runs and the builds and finding that a couple of awesome power-ups that go, oh, shit, this turns the run around. This could be really awesome if I am able to succeed here.
