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!"

Bought 3 copies for my home LAN. I've been dying for a game like this.

How does that work on Steam? Do you need a different Steam account for every local copy? That must be... frustrating.

Well, I have 5 comps all with their own Steam accounts networked that my kids and wife use. Normally it would be aggravating to have to buy 3 separate copies, but given that the game is a measly 10 bucks, it still ends up being cheaper than a single copy of most games.

Yeah, I gotcha. I'm not knocking buying multiple copies (though I fondly remember the games that let you have a few multiplayer-only copies for every actual-disc-copy that you had), it would just make me mad to manage multiple Steam accounts that way. I mean, it's just me here, but I could conceive of setting up a second or third computer for when folks visit.
