The developer of hit indie horror Iron Lung, which mega YouTuber Markiplier is turning into a film, has told those who don’t agree with the game’s recent $2 price rise to “go pirate it or something”.
Then, responding to those who have said he’s “only doing this for the money", Szymanski tweeted: “Yes, no fucking shit. I make games for a living. If I didn't want to earn money from them I wouldn't charge money for them.”
The game follows the premise of being trapped in an underwater submarine out of necessity to capture deep pictures.
No mate, I'm doing you a favour playing your game. You should pay me. It would be great exposure. I've got literally some followers.
And yeah, I'll bang on about minimum wage being too low and I'll post about AAA Devs ripping off their workers, but a lone developer asking $10 for something that probably took them months, too much. Too much.
