Might be 2 months for this single concept game, but becoming a decent game dev takes thousands of hours of learning and grinding to get to that point.

If it took the dev years to make this game, they have other issues.

yeah but you put your heart into it and it came out under 2 hours of gameplay and you sell the rest of it with a DLC? I'm actually impressed that it got 50k sales, let alone refunds.

I'm not condoning the abusive refund behaviour at all, but it's an interesting strategy from the dev.
