I am myself considering throwing in my lot for the dream of becoming a small scale games developer and this kind of information has really helped me think realistically in a climate where the only stories your read are about out-of-nowhere hits like Rollando. I wish you all success in the future and am sure that if you stick with it and learn from your experiences then you will be able to make a go of it in this tricky market. -Mark- Owen,

I can only imagine that those were from people who did not understand a) what you were trying to achieve and b) the thought processes of a small business owner. I congratulate you on the blog, and very much hope that you will keep giving us this insight. And I covered the story at my site focused on the business of games (http://www.gamesbrief.com/2009/03/revealing-stats-from-the-indie-developer-of-dapple-for-iphone/). Nicholas Owen,
