  1. Hiking the price of braid and castle crashers worked then :)

  2. Well, who’d have thought that releasing some games that were actually good and charging more money for them would turn more revenue? It’s amazing!

  3. good games = better sales figures

    Not surprising at all, really.

  4. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that when you put out quality people will buy it.
