A milestone in my journey to become a game designer

Recently I made a board game based on my favorite game, Foxhole, and made it in tabletop simulator. I shared this with other people I play foxhole with and the foxhole community and they really liked it, some loved it. I've already reached that milestone though with my first game, although there is at least 5x the people playing this game already. The milestone is people playing it without me prompting them/sharing it with them. I woke up one day and saw 2 people playing it, without me ever prompting them to do so. It blew my mind when I realized it and I'm still happy about it.

Now the next milestone I can think of is gonna be to get someone pays for a game I make, either by donation or buying.

@GeneralJist Finally had a moment that was well worth recording of the game

I'm down to ~15 guys with a 3% chance each a turn to deal one damage to the biggest tank in the game, that has 5 health. He can kill about 5 of my guys a turn reliably with the tank. After a whole game of unlucky rolls and never doing damage, on the last 2 turns I finally destroy “The Beast”
