• Marketing: promote your releases and grow your fanbase.
• Debugging: improve product quality.

the game is fun but the numbers don't make sense like an example will be when publishing a product and choosing the publisher how do you go form the first publisher which needs you to have one follower to the second publisher who needs you to have 10k to the third Publisher who suddenly needs you to have 150k?
