It says on their site the regular price is $2.99 and "now for a limited time" $0.99. I wonder if it was $2.99 during most of those 700k sales, netting them nearly $1.5M after Apple's cut.

This game is awesome, I've purchased a bunch of more 'in-depth' iPhone games but I've had the most fun with this one. I would definitely suggest trying it out.

Nice money for a month. Game looks interesting, too.<p>Is it better marketing or better quality, for an app without obvious universal appeal like this? Guess I'm wondering how the average user discovers apps...

Flight Control is a simple but great game! I'm only playing Flight Control and PocketGod when I'm have time for gaming on my IPhone.<p>As an IPhone game developer myself, I really appreciate their openess with their sales figure and that certainly is a motivating factor for us. I've also been collecting a list of sales numbers that other Iphone developers have released. Probably will write out a blog post with those resources when we launch our first game.<p>Will be interesting to see what PocketGod does.
