Yesterday, Ski Lines had around 600 wishlists on Steam.
Today, we're past 5,000.
Yep. Five thousand.
I'm not entirely sure what just happened. 😅
So... Matt happened.
I've been following Real Civil Engineer for years, so seeing Matt play my little indie game was already a dream come true.
But I definitely underestimated the power of the community of the bearded.
Thousands of you showed up, tried the demo, wishlisted the game, left comments, reported bugs, and generally made my weekend a lot more chaotic than expected.
Turns out making the main character a triangle was a pretty solid decision.
Strongest shape, after all. 🔺
Seriously, thank you. ❤️
A huge thank you to Matt for playing the game, for the kind words, the laughs, and the genuinely helpful feedback.
And to everyone who discovered Ski Lines through his video: welcome aboard!
I'm just one guy making a little game about managing ski resorts, and seeing so many people enjoying it is honestly a bit overwhelming. In the best possible way.
A quick note: Matt was playing an older version of the game. Quite a few things have changed since then, and there's still plenty more to improve. I've been reading your feedback, and it's already giving me a lot to work on.
Oh, and I may have hidden a tiny construction helmet somewhere in every map, just for Matt. 👷
Back to work!
The release is getting closer, my to-do list somehow keeps growing, and I suddenly have a few thousand more people to disappoint with my questionable game design decisions.
No pressure. 😬
If you haven't played yet, the free demo is available on Steam.
Thanks again, everyone. This really means a lot.
I was expecting a few more wishlists this weekend.
Not an avalanche. 🏔️
