Andrew Gower (𝕏) continues to exemplify his passion for game development with his latest project, Brighter Shores. Despite his immense success and wealth, Gower remains deeply involved in his craft, prioritizing quality-of-life updates and community feedback. This weekend, instead of taking a break, Gower worked on fixing bugs and implementing new features, such as leaderboards-a move that highlights his commitment to the players.
In a tweet, Gower wrote: "Ppl seem to think I should take the weekend off from doing QOL updates, so this weekend I am going to work on implementing the leaderboards a bit instead :)"
His dedication hasn't gone unnoticed by the gaming community. Reddit users praised Gower for his hands-on approach and tireless work ethic. Comments ranged from admiration of his work pace-reminiscent of early RuneScape days-to acknowledgment of his genuine love for game development.
/u/Jort_Sandeaux_420_69 wrote: "Considering how much he sold Jagex for, he never had to come back to game development, or work at all. He just wanted to because he loves it."
/u/011-Mana likened him to the creators of Dwarf Fortress, saying: "Game development simply isn't a job to them, it's their passion and their hobby. Andrew seems to share the same mentality."
Over the weekend, Gower also addressed some bugs and exploits, releasing an update with fixes for issues like detective crime den raids and shop functionality. While leaderboards might not launch immediately, his weekend efforts suggest they could be on the horizon much sooner than expected.
For fans who grew up playing RuneScape and are now enjoying Brighter Shores, Gower's dedication is a nostalgic reminder of the energy and creativity he poured into his early projects. As /u/portable-fox put it: "The energy Andrew has now reminds me a lot of how he was back in the early days. It's so wonderful to see him doing what he clearly loves again."
