Steam game store
« on: March 23, 2016, 09:42:47 am »
I read a post-request about publish game at Steam. My belief, that'll be great.  That may come a lot of new players to ufo:ai. If set some low level price ( for example 1$) it allows buy new sounds and create more high level design.

What prevents from it?

Maybe it'll be good but why sell it if the developers want to release it for free? I think some people wouldn't be interested in buying, for example me, because I am stick to the rule which says don't pay for games, so if a particular game has higher price than 0 I just skip it.

I think about distribute game at mostly. And Steam is one of the most popular game shop nowadays.

If developers don't like idea with money, game might be free ( Steem policy allow it).

I know Steam policy allows it so I was just curious why did you suggest that.

Main point is suggestion for developers to public game at steam. All else is some possible profit point of publication (however I think that ownCloud model is enough good work).
