    Mobile auto-runner Temple Run joins Angry Birds at the billion downloads table, developer Imangi Studios announced this week. That figure, by the way, refers exclusively to Temple Run and Temple Run 2, so imagine how huge it is when you include Disney spinoffs Oz and Brave. Either way, it's a remarkable achievement for the studio founded by a husband and wife team who had no idea how their game would catch on. "It's kind of crazy," founder Keith Shepherd said in a GamesBeat interview. "Temple Run has been out a little over three years. We launched on August 3, 2011, I think? At the time, there were just two of us at the company. We were working with a freelance artist on the game. The three of us made the original Temple Run in about five months.
