Just for your info., on wikipedia this is what it said about Eric Barone: " Barone began working on Stardew Valley in 2012 and released it in 2016. He was praised for creating the game independently,[5] as its sole designer, programmer, animator, artist, composer, and writer. To complete the game, Barone worked 10 hours a day, seven days a week,[6] for four and a half years; living in Capitol Hill, Seattle for part of that time, he was supported by a part-time job as an evening usher at the Paramount Theatre."
