Spent on what? Please do tell
Probably AWS stuff. An application that hasn't been designed to scale well can get very expensive very quickly.
Iirc the hosting cost so far is a few hundred thousand dollar. So far. But with the tanking of player base the price might get lower the coming month.
Yeah, the devs did say server costs were killing them, IIRC. Probably some of the reason for the relatively minor updates since launch has been putting out the fire of ballooning cloud expenses.
