Hi All,
Came across this example of "ransom" game publishing on fundable.org.
Famous game designer Greg Stolze is planning to release his forthcoming
game "...in Spaaace!" free (as in beer) for everyone on-line provided he
receives $750 in donations:
http://www.fundable.org/groupactions/inspaaace/
I think this is a great idea and a popular one too: it seems 99% of the
funds have already been raised in a month. It would be even nicer if
people did this and then published their games as free content so not
only did people get a free copy, but also one they could redistribute
and modify as they wished.
Certainly, this would also make an interesting method for publishing
free content games in the future. I know I would happily donate money if
I thought the final product would be licensed as free content.
Thoughts?
Kind regards...
