Ocarina was released in November and achieved 400,000 downloads in less than a month. Wang’s company which originally set a goal of taking $100,000 dollars in revenue this year will instead end up making closer to $1 million.

Another interesting story is that of Steve Demerter a programmer who built an iPhone game called Trism in his spare time, working nights and weekends. By the end of last year he’d earned $250,000 in just two months. He’s now quit his day job and formed a company and hired five programmers to develop a slew of new iPhone games.
