Glad you like it!
I’ve been running the dev stream twice a week pretty much since we added the Deep Dives, and it doesn’t get old. Sure, streaming is exhausting, but the game remains fun (granted, interacting with the community is part of it too).
I don’t think it would have been possible without the theme or the procedurally generated caves, but it’s never boring. I’ve unlocked all the overclocks legit during the streams and occassional solo play, and I am still having fun.
Doing the same without the banter, the RNG, the sometimes wonky stuff happening in eg. a story driven single player game would have rotted my brain.
Getting paid also helps
