Yeah, it seems to be an indie hit.

The character art at the top of the Steam page is the right kind of unhinged for me!

I liked the next fest demo and I’m glad the game seems to be doing well for the devs.

Steam is also promoting this game on their front page. Some of the indies never get same kind of love even though the game is good. I wonder who makes these decisions at Valve? or do the devs just pay for that position or do you have to know the right people?

I would guess they are algorithmic and something about the game purchase dynamics resulted in a positive feedback loop.
