How to Get Rich Simulating the Deaths of Billions of People | Wired.com
►http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2012/12/plague-incPlague Inc., a game for iOS and Android, has spread just like a virus in 2012. Challenging players to wipe out the entire world with a carefully constructed disease, the 99-cent game has been chronically infecting the App Store’s charts since its release in May, selling over 2 million copies on iOS devices alone.
James Vaughan, a 25-year-old former business consultant from London, developed Plague Inc. with the help of just three freelancers and a MacBook he borrowed from his parents. The total budget for the first version of the game was just under $5,000.
“I thought if I made back the costs from doing it, that’d be amazing,” Vaughan said.
Three days after launch, it became the top paid gaming app in the U.K. Two days later, it was number one on the U.S. charts. Today, Vaughan is a millionaire.
