How do you know its only one team working on several games instead of several teams?

Because that company is like 15 people.

There are those among us who love palworld, but REALLY are not happy that we're funding a business plan. That's not what early access is supposed to be. I paid to support the development of craftopia not to help them build a foundation for the tech they wanted in palworld...

Oh are they that small? Where can I look into that?

How well did Craftopia do? If it wasn't profitable, then how would they continue development on it? Seems like fans of Craftopia should be glad about Pal World and its financial success since that also gives Craftopia a better chance of continued development.

I don't know exactly where you can find the information about the team size, it's something I read about while following craftopia. As for being happy about their situation, I am, but that doesn't mean that they're going to focus on craftopia especially if it was just a vehicle to secure funding to allow palworld to be created.

I'm concerned it's not a priority of theirs at all since palworld is so successful.

"Gamefreak can release a new game every year because they have multiple teams"
