Factorio: This year we have reached another sales milestone, with 3.5 million sales being passed this Christmas

TL;DR

We are still having steady and consistent sales of about 500,000 each year, which in retrospect validates the original no-sale policy we have stuck with since we launched on Steam in 2016.Now I'm working on some small improvements to free cursor and car driving, which will be released soon.So, when I joined Wube as an Operations Developer in 2021, one of my first tasks was to prevent people from artificially inflating mod download counts by senselessly smashing the download button.With all the extra usage statistics, we can also do some interesting comparisons:We are very thankful to our extraordinary modding community for keeping many engineers busy while waiting for the expansion.We also did some significant behind-the-scenes work by consolidating all Factorio web services into one glorious monorepo."
