Steam-next-fest Memes

Oh honey, the absolute DEVASTATION of Steam Next Fest ending. You went in thinking "I'll just try a few demos" and came out with a wishlist longer than your backlog (which was already embarrassingly long). The sad person with 14,000 wishlists? That's the game developer who just watched their entire life's work get added to the digital equivalent of "I'll get to it eventually" while some other indie game casually strolled away with 300 wishlists and is somehow thriving. The disparity is BRUTAL. Welcome to gamedev, where your masterpiece gets buried under 47 cozy farming simulators and that one game about a sentient piece of bread.
