22-year-old solo game dev Zoroarts has created something of a break-out hit on Steam. Paddle Paddle Paddle, the designer’s second game (following 2023’s Makis Adventure), is a short third-person boat-paddling adventure played either solo or in co-op. And by the developer’s own report, it’s sold a very impressive 262,000 copies in its first year of release. However, 55,000 of these have been refunded via Steam’s no-questions policy, because the game can be completed in under two hours.
