15. Attempt to Get More People to Download?

Feb 2014

I wonder if he is doing this just to get more people to download the game. It seems he stands to make more money if more people download his game. According to one article he was already making $50,000 per day from this game and the main form of advertisement had come from an online gamer who had made a YouTube video claiming the game was great. Now with his announcement millions more have heard of the game and might have downloaded the game. Maybe with the extra downloads he will make even more money.
