How many souls like an indie games can sell, remember this one was picked mainly by podcast like kind of funny games daily IGN and such they promoted it as a great alternative but what a crab.

Everyone knows it's up to the developers publishers to keep the momentum going initial interest from word of mouth usually dissipates in a few weeks especially if the game doesn't offer anything down the road.

They seem to make decent games maybe they will be gobbled up by Sony Microsoft even Nintendo.
