    When did you buy KAG? You should be able to go to www.kag2d.com and go to panel (top center) and scroll down to get steam key. It should work if you already bought KAG which I see you have.

    I bought KAG on IndieGameStand (months ago) but I still can't see any Steam key... :/

    Bought it quite a while ago now on Desura. Yeah I know whereabouts to get the key but when you click it, it says I already have it which I don't. I know there was an issue devs were working on but it seems to be taking far longer than they anticipated. Thanks for getting back to me though :)

    30 000-35 000 licenses have been sold via Steam thus far.

    So that is like 30,000*$9.99 = $299,700. Or 35,000*$9.99 = $349,650!
    Either way, they have made a lot of money!

    I played a game recently where my team built a so-so defense, and the enemy team had this wtf amazing tower built over on their side. Their builders were really well coordinated and the effort really showed. Took me three attempts to bomb jump over, but after I did and started killing everything on their side, I grabbed the flag and just kinda... sat there killing stuff. I probably lasted 10 minutes without bothering trying to vacate the base before I got a wall of allcaps screaming "GODDAMN WOULD SOMEONE JUST KILL THIS GUY ALREADY?!"

    My teammates showed up and I just stayed there, holding onto the flag, killing everything. I didn't wanna take the flag too easily and it got me a nice k/d... wish their knights had been better though. I ended up chucking the flag to one of the other knights and then stayed there, killing shit until it said the match was over. Good times.

    Well actually it's 8,99 and the game was on sale for 7,99 for a while. Though some sales obviously came from Europe, where we pay € for the same amount even though the currency is higher, so that makes up a bit.

    But you have to remember that Steam and taxes both take around 20% cut, so actually the revenue is way smaller. Then it is split between Geti and MM.

    So I'd estimate their gross revenue is around $280,000

    But individually they netted around $81,000

    Remember though, these numbers are pretty rough and there's definitely more factors affecting the income than the factors I counted (and even those I did based on vague information and a lot of rounding).

    And $80,000 is a lot of money, but not considering the development time for this game (Over two years.) but luckily they did make about that much pre-steam thanks to the pre-steam beta sales. They're actually pretty lucky to have gotten as far as they have, but I'd also say they're probably my favorite and most talented of the indie developers I follow regularly.

    Congrats on getting the game in steam!
    Game is funnier because I find thrashing 5 knights by my self is amusing. It also gives you a good kdr. I remember one time at a start of a match I was archer and got all there flags, I gave them a chicken in return.
