It’s now been seven and a half years since the platform and puzzle game from No Brake Games has provoked fits of laughter among friends or family thanks in particular to its management of burlesque physics. Nothing predestined the game of former computer scientist Tomas Sakalauskas, and especially not the random ratings received upon its release, to achieve such commercial success, until the game caught the attention of Youtubers looking for more hilarity. or less forced. And yet, the game still recorded no less than 10 million sales between March and December alone this year.
Man man man man man man human
The release of the game in China in 2020 and the pandemic the same year caused another big boost, not forgetting the ports to all consoles as well as mobile. China, where the game is sold for the equivalent of 8 euros on Steam, seems to be a key driver of this takeoff. The publisher Curve Games can only be delighted, even if it was Devolver Digital which struck hard by becoming the publisher of Human Fall Flat 2, which does not seem in a hurry to get people talking about it. We wonder why.
Shortly before celebrating this impressive milestone, the team launched a creative competition with the future winner receiving plus $10,000 and the honor of seeing their level officially integrated into the game on consoles and PC. Human Fall Flat also welcomed its 25th official level last November, Underwater, not to mention the hundreds of levels accessible on Steam Workshop. When will the film adaptation be made?
