If the developers bankrupt, and I buy this on steam, who's getting the money? Is spending money on this game actually going to reward the people who made it?
The developers finished the game out of their own pockets, the company was bankrupt. Once the game released they recouped their finances and then some, since it was a smash success and one of the best pieces of art in the games medium.
They are still making games and you're still supporting them if you buy it now :)
I remember it looked really good for a PS3 game, I think the physics of the sand was a tech demo for the PS3's dedicated physics chip or something like that.
I got this on Steam lately, don't know anything about it, but I remember it was kind of a big deal.
Yeah it's a special game, and a masterclass in "show, don't tell" exposition.
Very worth the play - it's a beautiful experience.
I've been a fan of thatgamecompany since playing the free Flash version of Flow online and reading Jenova Chen's thesis on how to implement the flow state into gaming.

It's pretty awesome and he's a very unique individual. Can't wait to see what they come up with next.
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!
