So who exactly IS buying your games anyway?

What do people believe is the demographic for most internet game purchasers?

Obviously it will vary greatly if your game is a strategy title of the napoleonic wars vs say Super collapse, but if we had to say who the average online indie purchaser is how would it break down?

I don't know this for a fact, but I have always heard that the Indie Game market was fuled by the so called 'Hard-Core' gamers.

They goto the shelf , find every title that interests them, then go online looking for more games.

I read that in a magazine so take it with a grain of salt

Uhhh...is it .....

Other Indies? Trying to spy on the competition?

They are all being bought by members of a religious "Cult of Pong" that is headquartered in Nebraska. The members are searching for "The One True Paddle," or so they claim. The paddle may take many forms, but most of the long-term members state vehemently that it will not be found in a first-person shooter (unless it includes a third-person view, according to some moderates). Nor will it be found in an RTS or similar product where "the questers consciousness and being is not focused into a single digital entity."

Weird stuff. But they have money.
