Haxus.
Thanks for making this game. I really wish you the best in this endeavor. I will purchase the game wherever you release it next.
Based off the information I have available to me, I do not believe Steam is the right move for Hazeron unless a major update were to be released beforehand. Currently the new player experience is so bad and difficult that Dean and others are forced to provide much of the information new players need. This won't work if a significant amount of new players join. Unless significant changes are made specifically to the UI and tutorial I suspect the result of a Steam release is a forgone conclusion.
If hosting this project on your own is financially unsustainable in the long term then I honestly believe that the only future for this project rests in community run servers. Please consider in the future releasing the ability for players to host our own servers. I would personally be willing to pay for the ability to host my own server and would commit to an agreement not to utilize your work for financial gain.
It is not a sign of weakness to listen to the advice of those around you (who might have a perspective you lack) and then make a decision which is different than what you might have normally undertaken.
