The developers of Game Dev Tycoon (a Game Development Simulation Game)* released their game in simultaneously for $7.99 as well as for free as a cracked version on BitTorrent.*

From many comments in discussion boards the developers now know how many players "acquired" their game for "free". Analysis of the usage shows that 214 paid versions were sold, in comparison to 3104 cracked games (93.6%)
