[@williambintzer8128]

I see a lot of marimba renditions of video game songs and such on KZbin. Most aren't very good. They are often poorly arranged, poorly performed, or simply a poor fit for marimba. This is not the case here. This is an excellent arrangement of a piece that sounds great on marimba performed with superb skill. Well done.

I know several people have already replied but Hollow Knight is incredible. It's very difficult but fun and beautiful. Great characters, very emotional, and best of all incredible music.

Even at 15 dollars they still probably made a fortune, plus it makes team cherry look incredibly good in a market where its acceptable for one to copy paste a half a dozen games every year and charge 60 dollars for it.

[@toboterxp8155]

Well, they sold almost 2.8 million copies, meaning they got about 42 million dollars. Given they are only 5 people, and an 80 000$/year salary, plus about 80 000$/year other expenses (rent, electricity), they could just run their studio for the next 80 years without making a cent.
