Production costs must not be that high and the drain on the servers of running it would be like just running a normal webpage. I think they could just keep it up there for years with almost no cost for doing so.
As it says, there will be images to accompany it, so it sounds pretty fun. I cant wait to try it. *Dat has died of dysentery* |
