I’d like to know a bit more about the hiring process, something must have gone extremely well there for the game to come out at all with this kind of plan.
I am currently unable to fetch real-time exchange rates or perform currency conversions. However, you can easily find the current exchange rate from Japanese Yen (JPY) to US Dollars (USD) by checking financial news websites, using a financial app, or searching on the internet with a query like “1 billion JPY to USD”. Exchange rates fluctuate constantly due to market conditions, so for the most accurate conversion, it’s best to check a reliable financial source.
Wow, that’s one hell of a naive mind-set. He basically bet it all on red and since it paid of he’s going to be hailed as a genius. But in reality with that kind of “plan” it was a gamble that could just as well have ended in the company going under and everyone out of a job. I’m actually most interested in how he sourced the money, who loaned them the cash? (Or invested in the company). I very much doubt they had that kind of money laying around after their previous, rather niche games.
There are some absolute gems out there that totally flopped or at least didn’t do that well.
It reminds me of seven kingdoms. It’s a really unique RTS that came out in the 90s. Still one of my favourite games. But it got completely shadowed by C&C

Not taking away from the game or achievement at all, but to me it looks like they didn’t start from scratch.
Palworld looks like a re-skin of their own game, Craftopia.
I’ll probably try Pal this weekend myself.
@[email protected] How much is 1 billion JPY in USD?
Edit: It’s around 6.75 million USD.

Not exactly a small indie project when you hear that number.
Confirmed.

In all honestly, every video game is a gamble whether it’s financially successful or not.

I don’t think Steam was around back then.
