When it comes to indie games, 'word of mouth' is definitely where the action is.  When news of a neat indie game spreads through enough people eventually it will hook into enough 'connectors' and then the spread become enormous. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tipping_Point )

So I'm always grateful  whenever anyone thinks enough of the game to tell their friends about it.

I tell my friends, family, anyone who will listen. Even those who won't. lol. I had to give one of my friends an epic, "grrrr" when he said creeper world was stupid.

Meh, buy the game for them. That's what I did with one of my friends.
My mind rebels against stagnation.

I personally tried to get a couple of friends to try the training sim of CW1. I don't think they got to it yet, but it is worth a try. Though I am more than happy to recommend CW2 to some of my friends.
Vote Tony!

Always helpful and much appreciated. 

A big thing folks can do is to write mini (a few sentence) review of the game on game review sites (like gamespot).  Any time there is a place for a mini review or a "rank this game", it always helps when people fill those in and rank the game high.  All of these sites rank content by popularity and interest, so it is possible to create a snowball effect with enough interest.

I'm not sure it's possible to cover creeper world 2 in a few sentences... I may end up having an essay prepared. lmao.

Most of the comments are good, and they should be.... but someone called creeper world bland! how dare they! I hope the first emitter to come to our planet lands right in their living room...

I'm going to do that next time I'm at an apple store.... but I'll probably set everything to the cw1 store. XD
