Comment on Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game
SheeEttin@lemmy.zip 1 day agoI didn’t realize it had sold quite that many. I knew he spent a lot of time working on it, like 70 hours per week for 4.5 years, but that still works out to at least an enormous $12,000 an hour! Even if he kept at 70 hours/week for all ten years, it’s still only half that number, far greater than you or I will likely ever see.

Steamcharts showed about 150,000 concurrent players playing the game when I saw a few days ago; I’m shocked at just how popular it is as well. I think he could basically just work on it 70 hours a week for the rest of his life and it would still be a great hourly rate.

Personally I play Stardew a lot when my anxiety gets bad. This year has been pretty good for the game’s Steam statistics.
