I have mixed feelings about it, even for a "small team". But without getting into the often retread platform issues, a bigger sin to me is no GOG version. Having a game like this be Windows only at this point does feel a little archaic vs at least getting it officially tested with stuff like Proton on release, but still picking one OS platform has been a long time thing. But also tying it to one single more locked down distribution platform like Steam is imho not excusable at this point. I don't hate Steam or anything by any means, but in terms of longevity I want single player games like this in particular on GOG so I can download standard zips of them and have them myself forever. That's a real shame and probably enough to put me off of it.

Whilst a GOG version would have been nice, I wouldn't say it's inexcusable there is no GOG version as the majority of small indie games don't release on GOG for whatever reason - they don't like DRM-free (doesn't look like TBW is DRM-free on Steam so that could be a reason?), don't have the resources to maintain multiple builds (GOG and EGS require some more work than just a Steam build), don't feel it's worth it (they take the same cut as Steam and have less sales) or may not make the curation thresholds for the stores.

It's not like the devs other games were on GOG either - his games aren't even on authorised key sites, and are only available via Steam and Humble.

From the games credits looks like the dev team only has six people and a couple of consultants, so the likely reason is they just don't have the resources to support multiple stores.
