For what it's worth, ConcernedApe did come out with this little game on Android while he was working on Stardew as a side project. I think that helped him at least get that feeling of finishing a project.
As for the whole "start small" thing, indie developers like ConcernedApe and Alex Preston (of Hyper Light Drifter) have shown that you can make your debut game a great one. Is it easy? Not in the slightest. Is it for everyone? Probably not. But they have shown that with a lot of hard work, it is certainly possible.
I assume It's an easter egg reference to one of ConcernedApe's earlier games (Air Pear)
