Bolt Creative announced today that its best-selling god simulator, Pocket God, has sold over three million units since release. We previously wrote a case study of Bolt Creative and how it made Pocket God into a perennial seller on the AppStore. Back In January, Bolt announced that it had crossed 2 million units sold.

Bolt is particularly proud of the milestone saying, “If you were to lay down three million great white sharks (with freaking laser beams of course) from nose to tail, they’d stretch from New York to London and back.” These sales numbers come just days after Bolt Creative released the new Pocket God comic, the first issue in a four issue miniseries.

“We can’t thank the fans enough for all their support, enthusiasm, fan sites, YouTube videos, suggestions for content, and everything else,” said Bolt Creative chief executive Dave Castelnuovo in San Francisco. See Industry Gamers for more.
