TIL the dev of Iron Lung, an acclaimed indie horror game, faced significant backlash over increasing the price from $6 to $8
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.
You're viewing part of a thread.
You can rewrite it as much as you want, but no, he did say that. It's even in the post.
"to those who have said he’s “only doing this for the money", Szymanski tweeted: “Yes, no fucking shit."
I have no idea why everyone is taking this so personally. I said it's not the game for me, and you all melted LMAO
We're taking it personally because a lot of us are in exactly the same position, or have someone close to us that is. Our passions have to feed us. You're directly undermining that.
I literally am not, this is not the guys passion. He is in it for the money. He stated that directly.
Being there for money and passion is not mutually exclusive.
I know that, that's why I didn't support his comment on his game.
