# Register Your Game
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_Sketchy Maze_ is 100% free to play as a shareware game, but purchasing the
|
||
|
|
full version will unlock additional features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As of [release v0.7.0](/posts/release-v0.7.0/), registering for the full version
|
||
|
|
of the game adds the following features:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Publish your custom levels, doodads included!** If you are using some custom
|
||
|
|
doodads to design your levels, the Publish feature allows you to _easily_ share
|
||
|
|
your level with others: all custom doodads will be _attached_ directly into
|
||
|
|
the .level file, so you can send your level to your friend and it will
|
||
|
|
"just play" on her computer, as all of its custom content is included!
|
||
|
|
* **Play custom levels which have attached doodads:** the full version of the
|
||
|
|
game is needed to _play_ such levels which were published with their custom
|
||
|
|
doodads attached to the level file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Status: Coming Soon!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Options are currently being explored in terms of payment provider to begin
|
||
|
|
selling full versions of this game. Until then, friends & family get free
|
||
|
|
license keys.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Buy once, free updates forever
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The way this is going to work is that you buy the game just **one** time and
|
||
|
|
get free updates to the game for as long as I find it interesting to develop.
|
||
|
|
The early releases will be inexpensive and will go up as the game gains more
|
||
|
|
features and popularity, so early adopters can get in on the later updates for
|
||
|
|
a lower price!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## No DRM
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Upon registering for the full version of the game, you will receive a
|
||
|
|
"License Key file" which you select in-game to activate it. This process is
|
||
|
|
100% off-line, no network connection required, I want to make sure the game still
|
||
|
|
functions even if I get hit by a bus.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Future releases of the game will honor license keys generated for prior versions,
|
||
|
|
except if your key is discovered leaked onto piracy websites; in which case,
|
||
|
|
future releases of the game would stop accepting that license but older versions
|
||
|
|
will still work.
