Is This Seat Taken? er en af 2025's sande indie-succeshistorier. Det er det første spil fra Poti Poti Studios og har i øjeblikket en "Overwhelmingly Positive" review rating på Steam fra tusindvis af brugere.
Vi talte for nylig med medstifterne Sergi Pérez og Ausiàs Dalmau på BIG Conferencen om spillets succes, hvilket virkede som et chok for alle hos Poti Poti. "No, to be honest we thought it was going to fail and it was going to be our first game and we would learn a lot about how to market the game and how to get the game to the public," siger Dalmau. "That's what we initially thought, that it was going to be a short project, but then we pitched it to Wholesome and they really liked it, so we started believing in the game and then we announced it and we saw the reception and that's when we really started to believe that the game could be successful, but we never saw the success that it had, we never expected that."
Succesen chokerede bestemt teamet, og nu er der mange øjne, der følger med for at se, hvad de har i støbeskeen til deres næste spil. Da vi spurgte om nogen teasers, sagde medstifterne, at de ikke var sikre. "It's our first game, and we didn't know that after you released the game, you had to do so many things. So we are everywhere trying to promote our game, and we have no time to work on the next game," sagde Pérez.
