Not sure, Croteam never did come across as a rich company and I don't recall their engine sold well. Stadia work would've been a wage, a decent wage I'm sure but at the end of the day just a wage.

like every gameplay stands as an engine, or a genre, or a meta-genre? like GrandTheftAuto?
but i was i trying to tweet something about getting lost in stocks and tickers and symbols
