Stardew Valley was released on 26 February 2016 for Windows PC after almost four years of closed development. Linux and macOS compatibility was released in a free update on 29 July 2016.
I think the developer is just smart, he knows he has a golden goose. E.g. a co-worker and I started playing the game after a sale just a few months ago. It is one of my top all time games now, and I tell people about it = potential revenue that some games can’t hope to ever achieve years into their release. I do hope he takes time off more often now for anything else since it seems like he has burnt out a few times during development, hopefully he enjoys the fruits of the labor.
It’s nothing short of amazing that this already deep game keeps on gaining new content and improvements. And for free at that.
and alone, ConceredApe truly is a champion
