Minecraft, surpassed half a million sales in total over the weekend.
The developer of the game revealed the news
via Twitter, noting that it is the first Xbox Live Indie Game to reach this milestone.
"After only 163 days of being available, I'm incredibly proud for
FortressCraft [to] finally sell that magic half-million; thank you everyone," developer DjArcas said.
He also explained that, as of yet, the development team hasn't received any money from sales of the game.
