Play AquaDream, Save the Ocean: An Unbelievable Success! 🌊
Hey everyone,
I am writing this update with a heart full of gratitude. To be completely honest, I am completely lost for words. When AquaDream first launched, it only sold 142 copies (in 1 year on Steam). I thought the game’s journey had come to an end.
But this week, you proved me wrong. You showed me that when we unite for a great cause, we can achieve incredible things. Bringing this game back to life to support our oceans has been the most rewarding experience, and the support from all of you has been nothing short of amazing!
📊 The Initial Numbers (Estimates)
The event has just concluded, and while I don't have the final, official accounting statements yet, I wanted to share the preliminary numbers with you right away:
Approx. Copies Sold: ~810
OST Downloads: 500,000+ (With 165 of you choosing to pay for it even though it was free! You guys went hard! 💙)
Estimated Amount Raised: ~$871
Note: These are estimated gross figures. As you know, before the final donation can be made, Steam will take its platform cut, and we must account for potential refunds, regional taxes, and currency conversions.
📅 What’s Next?
Steam processes and finalizes official monthly reports at the end of the following month. By late June, I will receive the exact, official statements. As soon as those numbers hit my dashboard, I will make another announcement here with the final exact donation proof.
To maximize our impact, Gossiam Games will also be rounding up the final amount out of pocket before sending the donation directly to Ocean Wise. 🐋
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who bought the game, shared the event, or simply cheered us on. Together, we are making a real-world difference for our oceans.
See you in late June for the official final update! 💙
