Legend of Grimrock is doing quite well, patch coming soon
Legend of Grimrock has been out for less than a week, but it's already turning a considerable profit according to a developer blog post on the official site . Almost Human say that "the development costs of the game have now been covered many times over so the future of the company seems pretty secure."
