14 DAY TRIAL // Markus Persson, best known to the gaming community as Notch, says that he is currently having trouble spending the money that he has earned from Minecraft and is also feeling pressure when talking about and recommending other indie titles.
He is quoted by VG247 as saying, “I had a really hard time spending any of the profits. Also, what if the game stopped selling?”
He adds, “I’m allowed to spend half of anything I make. That way I will never be broke. Even if I spend extravagant amounts of money, I will still have extravagant amounts of money.”
Minecraft has become a surprise hit on both the PC and the Xbox 360 since it was launched, the leader of a veritable indie-based revolution.
At the moment, Notch is working on two new projects: 0x10c and Scrolls.
