For recognition.
I have yet to release a game/application for money. The 2 main large projects i have completed, delidash and pes4online have been largely successfull.
Tv / magazine coveraGE, 100,000's of users, good feedback.
This sort of things makes you feel you have achieved something. When you know somone has enjoyed your work, it makes you feel good inside.
That being said, I am not so idealistic that I dont want to try and make money from something if I think what I had made was worth a small fee.
Delidash (http://delidash.acsv.net) is the type of game you find with a $10 - $25 pricetag. It was worth giving it away free as a learning experience.
