It's always bugged me when I look at the >1000 player peak on Kalphiter's graph at this time around June 2014. There surely must have been some specific event that day.

Master server spam
nope

this was when the game hit that many players at once due to the game being rly cheap on steam. I remember hosting my freebuild during it and i got like 40-50 players

it was also featured on Steam’s homepage during summer sale

like 80 people or so joined zapk's rising lava. it wasn't even multi clienting, there were actually 80 different people there. the server soon crashed after

i remember tezuni's prison escape becoming full. with 99 players.

Whaaat lmao
And then the game just died after those few days back to regular numbers? Rip

Yeah, basically the summer sale spiked the playercount briefly. Too bad it didn't last.

That’s when I first got it lol
