The dev is obviously skilled. He created all of that game himself and made his crowd cheer at PAX EAST 2015. He did a good job, good for him!

I think there's a lot of empathy in putting yourself in his shoes and trying to help his game succeed, via deconstructing/criticizing the game's weaknesses.

And if he's around making indie games again, he'll want to know what current devs think of the market..
