Trials HD Screams Past One Million Sales

RedLynx has announced that its high-octane arcade game, Trials HD, has surpassed one million sales since its August 2009 release. "Only a handful of downloadable console games have reached this plateau," said Tero Virtala, CEO of RedLynx. "For a company of about thirty-five people, it's a significant achievement, and it validates our strategy of focusing on online and downloadable games that have the potential to evolve into long-term, successful game franchises."

That milestone is certainly one to be proud of, but RedLynx says it's not going to take a break anytime soon. The upcoming Big Thrills pack is set for a Q4 release, adding 40 tracks – 10 of which will come directly from the community. Here's some weirdness from the press release:

"This is a satisfying milestone," said Antti Ilvessuo, creative director and co-founder of RedLynx, as well as the lead designer on Trials HD. "But it's just the beginning. With the Big Thrills DLC, we are including ten of the very best user-created tracks right alongside our own."

He sighed, and donned a long judge's robe and powdered wig, then picked up a gavel. "Thousands of tracks were entered into the competition," he said. "For the next few weeks, I shall be a very busy, track-judging man."

Um...congrats?
