Magicka #1 on Steam, Bug Hunt Continues

Paradox Interactive announces that Magicka has sold over 30,000 copies since its release yesterday, saying this makes Arrowhead Studios' action/adventure the number one bestselling game on Steam over that period. They also reaffirm their commitment that began with yesterday's patch to clear up bugs and other issues, saying: "However, the fantastic success of Magicka is not a signal for the development team to pop open the jars of mead and relax after celebrating. Arrowhead Studios is working around the sundial and is fully committed to ongoing support by zapping glitches and communicating with players. The dev team has plenty more to conjure up so be on the lookout for more announcements and keep those wands ready, wizards!"

Things changed, Paradox isn't the piss poor little niche inhouse only developer anymore. They have enough success and money to take much more time to produce their next major inhouse title CK2, then ever before. And they spend money on several experiments, as seen during their recent convention/press conference.

So money is no excuse, they just wanted to push the title on the market in time. That is also the reason why they didn't include everything they wanted yet, as confirmed for "Paradox Connect" for example.
