Indie game devs can't catch a break in the release calendar hunger games. First they dodge Silksong (the eternally delayed Hollow Knight sequel that would steal all their attention), only to find themselves up against Hades 2 instead. It's like carefully planning your product launch to avoid the Apple keynote, then discovering Google decided to drop their new tech the same day. That two-week marketing window just collapsed faster than my will to fix non-breaking legacy code.
