But now if there is a way to pay directly Dan, I'm on it.

I'll reach out if I'm successful

Something else, someone have ran the game with dreamshell/retrodream ?
The game boot but don't load the map...

It's a great game, I bought it together with Intrepid Izzy from Wave Studios.
Please guys, if you like it, then please just buy the disc.

Post if you have success on the download.

So apparently it gives you three tries to download the file, then you have to repurchase the free download after those three tries are used up. Kinda a pain cause the file was corrupted, but will download to try out the game/to preserve the game copy.

UPDATE : I've tried about 7 times or so to download. Each time the file does not download and when it does its corrupted. I think the publisher is trolling people who want the game for free and they legit have a dummy corrupted file up for download that will not work.

Why the hell is this being given away for free? I mean I am still purchasing the physical version, but I feel like this should have only been given to people who purchased it. People worked hard to make this. It makes zero sense. I know anyone could easily pirate the game, but the DC scene has been pretty good about not fucking over indie devs who put out a good product.

Maybe RWS only gave WAVE permission to sell a physical release. Now they did make the code open source which is great but it still needed ported. Just seems a bit strange from RWS to go down this route and do a deal for a physical release but not a digital one. Lots of of active DC users with GDEMU solutions.

The Dreamcast open source code is available for download:

They always planned the digital version to be free. They are going the extra mile and making a downloadable CDI. Source is reddit. My guess is a marketing decision is at play here. They get a database of Dreamcast gamers with their email address - some of which will be future buyers.

I read that the original PC game was released as freeware in 2016.
