Audiosurf Ranks as Steam's Best Seller in February

19
Dylan Fitter's unique musical puzzle racer Audiosurf was the top-selling title on Valve's digital distribution-based Steam platform during February, the company announced today.

Released on February 15, Audiosurf and its $9.95 price point topped the charts both in terms of revenue and units sold. The game, which dynamically creates race tracks based on a user's imported music, outsold such notable titles as Valve's The Orange Box and PopCap's Peggle Deluxe.

"This kind of runaway success for an independent title is a tribute to Dylan's work and millions of informed gamers connecting via Steam each week," said Valve business director Jason Holtman.

Chris Faylor was previously a games journalist creating content at Shacknews.

      Skankore shackhyped it for me, but he didn't have to, the demo sold the game.
