yah, hesa justa newa guysa

1. I seriously can barely understand that.
2. I'm not that new -_- I just got a new account after I lost my old one.

20 is the normal price for a independant vidoe game released only on the internet. Its not that much, but its enough for a nice meal and to pay some bills.

^ ^  I believe that   ^ ^

Agreed. (You broke the General Discussion Silence >:O)

-Im sure a lot of people use paypal, that's like 5% off of the 20 badspot lost.
-I don't know how it all works with Garage Games involvement with the game, maybe none at all that badspot has his commercial license for torque, but i would figure they may get a piece of the pie.
-Badspot pays business income taxes as we should all expect. for every sale.
-is the master server free? even if its cheap, im sure someone pays for it.
also the site and forum bandwidth.

Even 15,000 sales later, unfortunately i don't think its enough to retire on.
He prob had his normal job these years, and right now i think hes involved with garage games in some way.
who knows.


oh yah, and like i have mentioned before. badspot has child support for them 8 kids to think about.

Lol@kids.

But yeah he actually earns about $9.50 every key, because some of the money goes to Step 1 Games LLC.

because it's like a universal pricing of lovey stuff, prolly.

Just look at Billy Mays

Everything his sells is 19.95 :cookieMonster:

step 1 games is the company badspot made i believe, so he gets all the money.

After taxes and stuff from owning his own company as well, yeah he only gets about $9 from each game.

Yeah Ladios Im pretty sure your correct. I'm not going do the math for this stupid question. But Yeah Blockland doesnt really make that much of a profit from even though its the best game that i have seen in a long time.

No, some money goes to Garage Games. Other money goes somewhere I don't remember.

It's not random, it's just a price that is reasonable, and for a life time thats pretty great.
Well,it might not be lifetime because admins can ban you
