HUNT3R is officially my most popular game!

HUNT3R
A downloadable robo-otome RPG for Windows

...and I can't figure out why?!

No seriously, the only other game of mine with this many views/downloads is Amethyst Hearth.  And that one got a huge popularity boost just from being in the Ukraine bundle a few months back.  HUNT3R got there all on its own.

I genuinely can't figure out why.  Especially since it uses almost entirely default RPG Maker assets.  Over on Steam, that's a death sentence.  And its not JUST putting the game up for free, either; I do that with other games (heck, I'm doing that with six games at once right now) and they still don't get viewed/downloaded nearly as much as HUNT3R.

HUNT3R has exploded with (relative) popularity and I am so confused as to why.

I mean, I'll take it.  And I'm very grateful to everyone who's viewing/downloading it.  And I'm also very grateful to everyone who has already donated to the fundraiser (which btw, please donate to the fundraiser, I am about to run out of money and I don't get a paycheck until September: please help).  And I'm happy about it!

I'm just so darn confused.  What makes HUNT3R so enjoyable?  

(If you've played HUNT3R and have a theory as to why its taken off so well, do let me know in the comment section)
