Alt ... that within six months of release,
Coffee Stain Studios' Goat Simulator, a joke-filled result of an internal
game jam, outsold the developer's previous releases over the prior four years?

I'm providing what I think is a bit more interesting hook having written much of the original article. (Not that the 4/1 release is not interesting but I think there's other more DYK-worthy interesting facts). --

New GA, interesting, well-written and -referenced, hook facts are cited and no paraphrasing issues detected on spotcheck. (I almost want to play this game, just for the heck of it...) I too clearly prefer the suggested ALT hook. Good to go, except that a QPQ review by nominator is outstanding.

this nomination. :)

OK then, this is good to go!

Comment: This seems like a good topic for an
April Fool's Day DYK, but I can't come up with a catchy line.
