What kind of games are you guys doing to be able to finish them in under 7 months - every 7 months - and publish it as worthy for steam?!! I thought small 2d games for mobile alone would take half that time. unless they are utter ****.

Edit: Don’t mean the post in a harsh way, just curious :). I always believed it would require at least some good enough of polish over any game published on Steam in order to be worth publishing and not end up in the crowd. To be honest under 7 months with one guy (assuming you are the only one working) who has trouble paying 100$ makes the odds odder.

People are different.
Dostoyevsky was able to write The Gambler in less than a month and so was Doyle with his A Study In Scarlet. Others take years to write a single novel.
Therefore, for some people, the correlation between time and quality is closer to zero.
