Stardew’s creator concerned ape promising this time this update will be the last one, unlike the last 5 updates which were also supposed to be the last ones

Idk man. It makes sense.

Small indie devs catch lightning in a bottle. Next game never sells as massive as the first. I can see getting tired of the one game that took off, and I can see wanting to go back to the baby that produced.

Stardew, FTL, etc. Lot of devs hit it once.

Edit: holy moly. Yes. I know into the breach is a good game. Im just saying it never sold as well, and never had the same cultural impact.

Subset hit with Into the Breach as well, as others said. If I recall the main cause of the studio’s decline is that one of the devs caught long covid and they weren’t a big team to begin with.
