This article seems silly to me, considering that plenty of these games already exist. A friend of mine just released their game, Settlemoon after a year of development, while they did other work. According to Steam charts, it's made them around $20k since launch. The issue is clearly discoverability, not that developers just don't release small games.

Apparently the only marketing this game had is a single reddit post and discord, I expect to find something on twitter for this type of games.

they have a twitter account, and have been promoting there. they bought some ads on various websites too.

they aren’t dissatisfied with the game’s sales. i just think its weird that this article is lamenting about the nonexistence of a kind of game that very much exists.

I think the article is more of a call to action to focus more on these types of games, especially as a first foray. don't build your dream as your first game or get 2+ years in the weeds and all that.

The article is arguing that these types of games DO exist.
