It's a rough time to try and sell an indie game, and while some in the industry are afraid that the latest release from publisher Devolver Digital is one of those struggling titles, the indie label says the game is doing just fine, thanks.
"Children of the Sun received enormous amounts of media coverage and exceptional reviews," Lewis Burnell of PR firm ICO Partners said on Twitter. Citing SteamDB's player counts and making some rough estimates, Burnell said, "It peaked at 208 players on its launch day yesterday, which means it will probably sell around 5,000 units in the next seven days. Undoubtedly below expectations for Devolver."
