Creator spotlight: the solo dev whose obby hit two million visits
Most breakout obby hits come from established studios, which makes this one worth talking about. It was built entirely solo over 18 months, with no external funding and effectively zero marketing beyond posting progress clips on a community Discord.
The mechanic drawing the most praise is a checkpoint system that adapts difficulty slightly based on how many times a player has died at that specific checkpoint, without ever making the level feel easier to a fresh player who breezes through.
Since crossing two million visits, the creator has said they're turning down a couple of collaboration offers to keep working solo for the sequel, citing creative control as the main reason.
