Palworld community manager John "Bucky" Buckley has responded to players wondering why Pocketpair doesn't just hire more developers with the money gained from the survival game's overwhelming success in order to develop updates faster, saying that things aren't that simple.
Palworld has done well enough that it had Bucky (who's also Pocketpair's communications director) saying the game hit a "disgusting number" of players in its first week "that makes me feel sick," with the studio using the funds it accumulated to take "risks" as well as set up a publishing branch to help get more indies off the ground.
