However, it ended up delaying the game\u00a0“to apply some final polish and balancing to make the game truly shine.”\u00a0<\/p>\n Mina the Hollower<\/em> was in development for six years, during which time the developer had to downsize after burning through most of its capital. Studio head and cofounder Sean Velasco has described the game as a “make-or-break” moment for Yacht Club. “If we sold 500,000 copies, then we would be golden,” he told Bloomberg<\/em> in December. “If we sold even 200,000, that would be really, really great. If we sold, like, 100,000, that’s not so good.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
