Indie Dev Making Six Figure Salary From WP7 Ad Based Games
by David K on February 9, 2011
For all of those that think that Windows Phone games don’t make developers money, Elbert Perez is showing otherwise. He’s an Indie developer and has released a series of Windows Phone 7 games that are top rated. Although his games started at $.99 there are now free versions of all of his games and he’s earning $380 per day in ad revenue. Do the math – that’s about $138,700 per year. Not bad at all. And this shows you that with the right games you can make a living off of this platform.
You probably have some of his games on your phone in fact: Impossible Shoota, Nom Nom Worm, Blackboard Gems, Quadra, Fishing Girl, Scribble DEfense and Zombidemix.
Congrats!
