 "No Man's Sky" is a success in the growing indie company Hello Games. The game has been made by a team of composed of only people. "It's easy to forget we're just a small self-funded indie studio. I remember even on Joe Danger, we ran out of time, energy and even money, maxing out credit cards, but we just kept going. That's where we are now," Murray added.

Speculations were made by Moviepilot that the game might coincide with the release of Project Morpheus. The site states that this would be a good move for the sales of both Sony and Hello Games.
