On 13 October, the two developers of 2D Boy announced the launch of a promotional offer to greet the first anniversary of their only game, World of Goo: "download the game by paying what you want!" Now and then the tender is extended until October 25, the two cronies beginning to take stock.
Firstly, it is interesting to note that the offer has sparked a veritable rush Goo "which saw some 57 000 people buy the game from the official website of its creators. Given the sums expended, 2D Boy says that the average rate of play was established at 2.03 dollars, but there is still paltry 16 852 who decided to spend only the bare minimum, or $ 0.01.
More gratifying, many people paid more than $ 1 and developers do not complain: they collected about 100 000 dollars for a simple message and a promotion on a game they have done for over a year .. . Not without humor, they also highlight several "facts" fun: Steam version has recorded a sales increase of 40% and the Wii version has seen an increase of 9% ... Of course, the promotion did not involve any of these platforms!
