Also, the video is funny, but it really doesn't tell us anything about what you do. It doesn't show us the consequences of any of your decisions.
Anyhow, I wish the developer all the best. I hope sales to pick up and that they enjoyed making the game.
Also, I wonder how many people knew what spelunking was before Spelunky!
How did such a scene work? Did you have get togethers to talk about your Yerba Mate experiences? Are there Yearba Mate VIPs you worship together? Did you have Yerba Mate merchandise?
I think it may depend on your region. Obviously it is very well known in South America (I first became acquainted with it about 25 years ago after being friends with someone from South America who drank tereré, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terer%C3%A9, all the time), but now I see these, https://guayaki.com/our-product-family/, all over Whole Foods in Texas, so somebody must be drinking them here.
Tea Tycoon, I'd have to presume has been done? Otherwise, it sounds like something people would go for.
Some reasons:
* If anyone were to search for such a game, this will be the top result by default, so there might be a trickle of sales over time that just doesn't stop.
* This game may trend on some relevant subreddit/twitter clique/forum and get later sales boosts from that.
* If you have a Yerba Mate blog or podcast, this is basically the only game you can even feature if you wanted to talk about something new.
My next step would be to make a spreadsheet of anything Yerba Mate -related that could possibly feature the game and contact them all.
