I just wanna add. Don't ever give up. There hasn't been a single classic game produced independently (much less single handedly) that I know of even though the many classic games we have were simple enough to be made just the same way you are making Rathmor. It was a cottage industry then. Not a real industry. The people making "indie" games nowadays wanna take shortcuts to try to make a quick buck. The Microsofts of the world have moved on to court overgrown fratboys and and undiscerning toddlers. We have to fend for ourselves now. Show us the way.
Disclaimer: by classic I don't mean old. I mean things we still talk about 50 years hence. I can't even think of a single game like that spawned from the current generation of consoles. So its little surprise that so-called indie teams haven't been able to churn out a single classic. Even if Rathmor isn't a classic. I think odds are good its gonna look like a classic, at least remind some people that classic video games were once a thing in bygone eras.
