Is MDickie done updating Wrestling Empire?

[Zombeef]

Lately updates to the game have been infrequent, and when there is an update it's mainly bug fixes and a couple new moves. Cars haven't been added yet, the maps in free roam are still pretty small.. And then recently Mdickie posted this on his twitter

While I'm proud we could take wrestling to its most positive user reviews, I also have enough ring awareness to roll out while the big boys are fighting in the main event - so I'll see you on the other side..."

Anyone know what that means? It'd really suck if he's giving up on his most popular game to date when there's still so much more that can be added. I'd hate to think that we'll never see some sort of mod support or even just an expanded costume library to choose from.

He could fix the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pinning system and never make another change.

what's wrong with the pinning system?

Idiots who have had their ass kicked in and realistically should be dead keep kicking out of pins no matter how much punishment they take.

Probably something to do with your wrestler's stats. Might be low skill level or somesuch. Just raise your skill, it makes matches a lot easier when you're wrestling against lower stats.

Yeah, I know that's the reason but it still feels silly.

Hopefully he isn't that financially illiterate he makes millions on his games, i can only assume he knows how to adjust his living standards to his income level, since it takes a bright guy with a lot of common sense to be a highly successful solo game developer in the first place.

You seem to know a lot about his finances. How do you know he is making "millions" from this game? You could be right, but that kind of seems unlikely.

According to the Steam store page, there are 50,000 - 100,000 owners of this game. The low number at the half-off ($9.99) price point is $500,000. Take into consideration costs, some people paying full price, some people pirating, at least 6 or 7 other games (including on mobile platforms), etc., and, though there's no guarantee (hey, maybe he pays rent in NYC and maintains an expensive drug addiction?!), it doesn't seem implausible that he could have been / is raking in cash up and and beyond the million dollar mark!

Did you notice how the numbers you presented didn't add up to him getting millions?

You must have noticed that when you typed it out, right? Do you have a drug habit that is messing with your awareness?
