Transistor - 70+ Accolades & 600k Copies Sold

Super Giant Games is proud to announce on their website that Transistor has earned over seventy awards from various websites, and has sold over 600k copies last year,

Not bad I say so keep up the good work guys, and here is a snippet from the post.

The launch of Transistor back in May of last year was a big deal for our small studio, as it was our next original game following the success of our first game, Bastion. Bastion's success exceeded our wildest fantasies by quite a bit -- it's sold more than 3 million copies to date, the majority of which happened many months after the game first came out on Xbox 360 and PC.

So, we were very happy to see Transistor selling even faster relative to Bastion during the first couple of months after its launch. With the new year upon us, we checked our spreadsheets, rubbed our eyes, checked our spreadsheets again and can now report that, thus far, Transistor has sold well over 600,000 copies between Steam and the PlayStation Store!

Word-of-mouth is what kept Bastion going for way, way longer than we could have imagined, and it's what's kept Transistor going strong, too. To that end, over the past few weeks Transistor has earned more than 70 industry accolades, including end-of-year awards and nominations for all sorts of different reasons you can read about below.

I haven't played the game, but, good for them. It's always nice to see small studios do well.

I'm glad for them too.

Now if they'd get around to releasing it DRM free on the humble store so I can finally play it too. It took them/him forever to finally allow Bastion on the humble store DRM free so there's still hope (and while there's hope I just don't bother buying it on steam).
