The premium version of Dwarf Fortress made over $7.2 million in its first month alone.

  "first month" is really obscuring the decade or beforehand. That's 20 years of development before the premium version launched

    So that's 360K/year over 20 years?

      And a lot more from subsequent months, but I don't think it's a problem that this wildly successful videogame made its developers decently rich.

        Oh I fully agree. I hope Tarn an Zach make millions more and can keep working of their life's work for many years to come.
