I’m at a crossroads with my Speed Cubing Competitions listing app (SCComps.com). It’s an iOS app built in Flutter, has around 250 downloads, and currently generates no revenue. I'm spending about $500 a year just to keep it running. There’s little community engagement, and I'm debating whether to double down and rebuild it in Swift—or just shut it down altogether.
Instead of engaging with others, you should’ve just stayed bold (or in your own words - foolish) and started the robotics company, pouring in whatever money you could. Sometimes other people are unintentionally demoralizing. Who cares if you’re burning through your own cash? In a few years, it might just turn into something big.
Breaking things isn't ideal, but it's not the worst. What's truly problematic is when everything appears to be functioning perfectly, while underlying issues go unnoticed—exactly the situation in this story.

Well, none of the existing animation movies follow exact laws of physics.
Cool game! For US cities add the State abbreviation as well in the question because city names are not unique across USA. For example there is a city called Lexington in Kentucky, Massachusetts, Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington.
This is not OP, but my experience with releasing apps on android is awful. It needs 20 testers who need to test the app for 14 days before it can be released to production. Its a major bottleneck for individual developers. Hope OP isn’t stuck with it.
