surfer1260: All games created by
Wenudu are free, probably forever.
Here his closure statement:
I’m Done. Thank You and Goodbye.
I’ve been making games with all my heart, hoping to create something people would enjoy and support. But after months of development, after countless hours of effort, stress, and passion, I’ve come to a hard truth: it’s no longer sustainable for me.
My latest game, End of the Night, sold just 5 copies. Five. At $1 each. I wasn't expecting AAA numbers, but I hoped, maybe 100 copies on release day? Maybe just enough to believe this could grow into something real. But it didn’t happen.
I’ve cancelled all future projects. I simply can’t afford to keep going. I don’t have another job. I’m in debt. I’m struggling, and I’ve reached the point where I have to stop. They say, “Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” But love doesn’t pay the bills, and passion doesn’t put food on the table.
What hurts even more is the confusion. I have over 300 followers here on itch.io. To each of you, I want to say: thank you. Truly. But I also have to ask: Why did you follow me? Was it curiosity? Support? Hope? I genuinely want to understand, because despite your follow, almost no one showed up when it mattered most.
I even put "Liminal Leap" on Steam, hoping for more visibility. But platforms like Steam often favor big names with money to burn on marketing. If you’re a small indie dev with no budget, you’re invisible. That’s the reality.
So, this is my farewell. I’m closing this chapter. I’ll likely be shutting down my channel as well. If you followed me, you might want to unfollow now, because there won’t be new content coming.
This isn’t easy to say, and it’s even harder to live. But I can’t pretend anymore. I wanted to believe this dream was possible. I tried. I really did.
Thank you, again, to everyone who supported me in any way.
Well... those games are not a game, rather a lot of concepts of a purely artist impression. Indeed a completely new approach of "how to build a game", yet it simply remains unfinished concepts. In general people do not understand it and still find it slightly interesting. However, it is just as he said "it does not pay his bills" and he is not on the right place nor spot making money this way.
They say, “Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” But love doesn’t pay the bills, and passion doesn’t put food on the table.
Nah, those who made those idealistic words lack any realism. It rather would be like "Become loved by someone or something else with sufficient might, and you never work a day in your life". Which of course is favoring certain people way more than others, dependable on their "natural conditions" and talents inside a certain society.
