Halfbrick, the studio behind Jetpack Joyride, have revealed some interesting details about the game. It has been downloaded over 14 million times.

The game also sold 1 million copies – the 14 million figure is because the game is free-to-play.

Chief marketing officer, Phil Larsen revealed this info to Joystiq at the DICE summit. He also said that a new update will be available soon, and it is the biggest one they’ve done.
