Yeah I get what you mean, and fair play for even trying to make something happen. The problem is most investors aren’t going to jump into a game like Toribash unless there’s a clear way to make the money back. Buying it is one cost, but keeping it alive with proper updates, servers, and a real dev team ends up being the expensive part.

Toribash is niche, it’s got a massive learning curve, and the playerbase isn’t exactly growing, so from a business point of view it’s a tough sell. Investors want guaranteed returns, not passion projects.

Would be sick to see you take it over, but realistically you’d need people willing to fund it out of interest rather than profit, because the numbers alone won’t convince anyone big.
