Title: World of Goo - For 1 US cent.
Post by: Liberator on October 13, 2009, 03:20:28 PM
One year old today and they are allowing you to buy it for whatever you think it's worth.

So a PayPal transaction of 1 US cent will get you the game to download.

Linux version available as well.

Hmmm I waited a full night and still no download link :angry:

Also the resend option does not work...

*edit*

Okay it works now, I ordered it for 1 cent the first time to see if I like it, but never got a link.
Bought it again for 10 cents and got the download link instantly.

If i like it I will buy it again, so they get the money I think it's worth :)

So rebuying did the trick for me

Basically I think they have been inundated with requests and their system isn't coping.

I did a resend of the email yesterday and got it straight away, but the original email only arrived this morning.

Yup, thats really the only way to do it, get it for nearly nowt and play it, then give them a bit more in appreciation.

The download link you get allows you to download the PC, Linux and MAC versions.

Is it possible to add this game to steam, so I can download it later again, after i formatted my pc for example?

Or do i have to back up the install file somewhere?

Nothing to do with Steam, you can add it to the launch menu but as far as Steam is concerned it's not in your account.

You'll need to back up the 65meg installer somewhere.
