Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

For me, this only affects Net Gain, which isn't finished, and Project Zomboid, which I can get other places.

My condolences to anyone who was building a library over there.

Net Gain and apparently this other game called Solar War.  I don't even remember picking that second one up.

This, but they haven't been reliably paying developers who've been selling their games through it, either, and who knows if they'll get anything now.

The parent company of Desura, Bad Juju Games, also owns Indie Royale.

If you bought games off of Desura or Indie Royale, now is the time to back them up.

Towns. 3079. Nope. No loss there. I bought a grand total of 2 bundles at Royale because they had the worst bundles.

You can request steam keys.  I just got mine for Hearthlands and Project Zomboid.

How does this usually work? Contact the developer with some kind of proof of ownership on Desura?

Indie Royale, as a seller, will give Steam keys for things if they can and only on what they sell.

Yeah, you can message the dev profiles on Desura directly, they can see that you own the game and will give you a key.

Hey thanks for warning us OP, I had missed the whole thing without you. Luckily Dominions 4 key works directly as a steam key, yay.

It doesn't have anything related to IndieDB anymore, right?

Huh, funny how IndieRoyal is having a sale right now.  Is it paying its devs?
