A couple of days ago Necesse surpassed 1 million copies on Steam. Sitting there, refreshing the page, and seeing such a big number is something I never dreamed would happen. Only later in the day when I got home did the feelings hit me.
From starting a hobby project over 10 years ago to betting it all and going full time in 2019, working for 2 and a half years barely making enough to pay the bills, to then finally starting to make it has been a long, but rewarding journey.
Thank you to all the players who played, shared and gave feedback and reviews to shape the game into what it is today. I am so, so grateful! Until the next update, happy holidays and happy New Year! 🎉 - Fair
