'I was this close': Teenage dev's $200 joke game made nearly $1.4 million on Steam before the refunds…
An 18-year-old developer, Michael Major, made nearly $1.4 million on Steam with his joke game, 'This Game Costs 200 Dollars.' However, most sales were immediately refunded, particularly from China, leaving Major with a net profit of just over $2,000. The game, described as a low-effort RPG, was intentionally priced high as a commentary on Steam's pricing policies.
