It's fun.
Other human beings, other people, played my game and had genuine fun. It's very gratifying to have an idea, work on it for so long, and have people actually enjoy it, and I feel this game is going to very much influence what kind of games I'm going to make in the future. I've always wanted to make experiences, games that make people feel certain emotions, and this has only added fuel to that fire. And, for the first time, I can really see this whole game design thing working out. If I, by myself, can make a product people enjoy, with a team of people helping me I can make a polished product that people enjoy. I'm excited for the future, and for what I'm going to make, and the stories I'm going to tell. Lets just hope my career hasn't peaked already.
