We make a point of sharing all our sales data, good and bad, and publicly postmortem all projects. We’ve also collectively given a lot of talks over the years. We’ve collected it all together below, for indie devs’ browsing pleasure.

Hope some of this helps! Feel free to ping @tronbevan or @alexiskennedy on Twitter if you have specific questions about anything here.
