DEEP 8 now "free to play"

More than one year after official Steam release, I decided to make DEEP 8 free to play. The reason is simply because it is no longer economically justifiable.
Therefore I also added a direct download to the game's bio, in case some of you prefer that.

I'm still convinced of the game's quality and of the fact that it deserves a lot more players.

I hope this gets a broad release however possible! It's still one of the most technically impressive Rm2k3 games ever made.

I have mixed feelings about the fact that it's "free" but the decision is totally understandable.

I'll have to get around to doing a full review at some point.

I'm also in the "made my commercial game free" camp. Remember that there's no shame in doing so and it's not an indication of defeat. Once I did it, I got many more downloads and reviews than I had when it was just sitting around collecting dust.

I hope it goes well! It can really help give your game a new lease on life.

Oh, thanks for sharing that experience Sgt M! That was quite insightful.

However I don't feel defeated, since popularity or commercial success is not what drives me at all. Still I'm hoping to have some more players.
