Silksong devs felt they didn't 'have a lot of control' over its release date and sympathize with all the games that were delayed to avoid it: 'To some extent that probably is unfortunate'

Silksong devs "have other games that we plan to make" that aren't just Hollow Knight, but their own deaths weigh on them: "It’s not that far off if you spend 7 years per project"

Hollow Knight: Silksong devs believe "the real world generally underestimates players," but Team Cherry trusts fans to "engage" and figure the Metroidvania out: "You can guide them a little bit, and that's enough"

"It certainly underestimates their capacity to deal with things"

Team Cherry explains the Silksong development process that was so fun devs just couldn't stop: "If you're trying to build a Mario level, you might take an empty space and think, oh, should there be a few platforms here?"
