Make a living on XBLA indie games?

by Paul On March - 3 - 2010


Recently Microsoft released the Top 20 XBL Indie games for 2009 but were these games selling well? Thanks to the help of the developers of these games, they released their sales numbers and profits to the world. Surprisingly some made a good amount of money. These are no billion dollar franchises here, but enough money to make many people happy.

Gamerbytes dug through the forums and created a nice chart showing off these figures. The best selling game was “A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES” with 160k sales and $112,000 made. The most money made was done by “RC-AirSim” making $129,500. Very impressive numbers I must say! I hope this will motivate you indie developers to make some games. I know it does for me!

    $100k? Not bad at all for an indie game; congrats to the devs, that’s totally awesome!
