Looking ahead, Tyler outlined his priorities for the next steps, focusing on resolving remaining bugs.

Schedule I became the top-selling game on Steam upon its launch, surpassing big titles like Monster Hunter Wilds, GTA 5, and Marvel Rivals, thanks to its viral spread across social media, Twitch, and YouTube. In the game, players start as a small-time drug dealer in the gritty city of Hyland Point and work their way up to becoming a kingpin, managing the production and distribution of various drugs. Players can expand their empire by acquiring properties, businesses, and hiring employees.
Developed and published by TVGS, the Australian indie developer Tyler has described Schedule I's explosive launch as "amazing but pretty overwhelming." In a post on reddit, Tyler expressed his surprise and gratitude, saying, "I never expected this kind of response! At the moment I’m just trying to stay focused and get patches out ASAP. Also looking forward to getting started on content updates as soon as all major bugs are patched."
