Legends of IdleOn

Heat and Run is an indie MOBA/platform shooter hybrid released in late 2022. As an indie title without major publisher backing, it likely never reached high player counts and has probably declined since launch. MOBAs from small developers often struggle to find large, sustained audiences. Based on its age, indie status, lack of major promotional impact, and typical genre trends, a small but dedicated community is likely, with daily players estimated in the low hundreds.

Legends of IdleOn is a well-known idle MMORPG created by indie developer LavaFlame2, released in late 2020 and available on multiple platforms (PC, Android, iOS). While it is not developed by a major studio, the game has remained popular within its niche, fueled by regular content updates and a dedicated player community. Given its cross-platform support, ongoing development, and its distinct idle MMO format, a daily player count in the 25,000–40,000 range is typical for active indie MMOs of this scope about 3-4 years after launch.
