Hey Operators, Its been a little over a week since The Operator launched on Steam. After 3 years of development, with a super tiny team (often just me, now the two of us), it's difficult to state just how blown away we are at the reception The Operator has received. With almost 2,000 Very Positive reviews, we've now sold over 30,000 copies of the game and exceeded more than 120,000 wishlists. These are enormous milestones that provides us with a huge amount of options going forwards, including the ability to work on a successor to The Operator. Without the support you've given us, it simply wouldn't be possible and for that we're incredibly grateful. Special thanks also has to go to those who purchased the soundtrack seperately from the game. It's an incredibly important aspect of The Operator, and we're thrilled that it resonated with so many of you. Here's some stats you might enjoy after just 8 days. A peak of over 1300 concurrent players Over 1600 on the Steam page during its launch Almost 2000 'Very Positive' reviews (93%) 31,000 copies sold Front-page on Steam's Top Sellers 7 days on the front page of New & Trending 120,000 wishlists As we scope the potential for a successor that's bigger and bolder, we just wanted to thank you all again for supporting the game, We'll be sure to keep you updated with all our news going forwards. /Bastien https://store.steampowered.com/app/1771980/The_Operator/
