I never thought about it like that. If he makes an average of just $0.50 per sale after all the storefront fees and taxes and stuff, he would still have enough money to pay himself $200,000 a year for an entire lifetime, just from the sales he’s already made. No wonder he’s so chill about keeping the game updated for free. What an awesome guy
He has hired a few contractors to help build out features like co-op, (though the first few versions were entirely him on his own). That would eat into profits a bit, but even if he paid each of them $100k for their work there are few enough for it to be a drop in the bucket
He surely has enough money from Stardew to live comfortably for the rest of his life. Why would he need to publish anything?

Because 4 years ago he said he was working on another game based on stardew.
Which he’s still working on.

Speak for yourself. I can hardly do 1 at a time.
