There's no publisher, they're as indie as they come. The original prototype and game were made by burning through their savings, and it sold millions of copies, so they're completely sheltered from need for the rest of their lives. Silksong is only adding to that wealth. I feel like they're very decent people who succeeded because they love what they do, and are good at it.
And by selling the sequel for basically the same price (adjusted for inflation), it seems like they're using that wealth for good by pressuring greedy publishers to push prices down, not up.
BL4 for $70 doesn't seem like all that great of a deal when you might spend more time with a $20 game.
Im laughing at how many games changed their launch window away from silksong and instead are going against BL4.
For some reason people arent seeing competition in Randy.
