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 distinction is he agreed he was only doing it for the money. Idc if they charge for their hard work, they should. But if an indie game is only in it for the money, it’s no better than a gacha.

      He never said he was making the game only for the money; he said that he set the price for the money. Things like a filter that turns everything into Markiplier and continued updates show that he also has passion.
