After watching his recent very interesting GDC talk* - he mentioned high six-figures income ($800K+). I guess he spends a lot :)

- bscphil 7y agoDo you have a link? Assuming he is being honest in this article I have to assume he misspoke in the talk - surely "high five figures" is a more accurate summary of what's in the post.
- zimpenfish 7y agoDo you have a timestamp? I downloaded the (auto-CC) transcript but can't find anything relevant in that text.

- vidarh 7y agoThat's pre-inflation adjusted $750k gross, at a point with 3 employees. Take of cost of sales, marketing etc. and it will be ok but not massive per person (but also note he calls that $750k result "life changing"), and he also points out they have an ongoing cycle of peaks and troughs, and his 2011 numbers coincided with what he described as the "Indie bubble", and an initial burst from getting on Steam, and points out he sold more for a while, and then less again. He makes the point earlier in the video that the ~$200k/year mark inflation adjusted number is closer to the norm for them across his career.
