I created Universe Sandbox, a realistic physics-based space simulator. I started working on the idea as a side project just for fun back in 2007 and released it on my website for free in 2008. I later transitioned that to a name-your-own-price model and then to a fixed price. When it (now known as Universe Sandbox Legacy) was first released on Steam in 2011, it sold more in the first hour than I'd sold on my... Source: over 1 year ago
