David :

We are probably be talking about different things.

I am talking about my Quarters game I wrote several years ago -- you 
can play it here:

http://sperling.com/quarters/

You see, in December 1999, I wrote a Macintosh freeware application 
that did the same thing as shown above. I placed a link on my 
web-site to download the application, namely:

http://sperling.com/freeware.php

I then contacted several shareware sites online and gave them the 
link for them to use/advertise.

In February of 2000, Mac World ran an article and mentioned my 
Quarters game. Several other magazines followed with similar 
articles. As a result, my site experienced thousands of downloads and 
many of the shareware sites I shared my link with reported similar 
activity.

Over the following decade, I received lot's of paying request for the 
secret to the game.

However, what I did was pretty simple -- there was nothing 
outstanding. There was no video, nor branding, it was just an 
interesting experience *for me*.

Cheers,

tedd
