I think this one asks you to pay for it after a bit. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just felt bad about getting a little bit in, and then being hit with a decent pay wall.

Right, I mean, author has the right to do this -- but it still seems like a gloriously stupid thing to try to get someone to pay for in this way; like what market is this?

Like, I'd bet "Pay $10 if you like it" / ReaperWare would earn this person literally an order of magnitude more money.

Yep. I was trying to buy some licenses for my school, and they only offerend subscriptions in which I am not interested. A shame! Such a great game.

>ReaperWare

What does this mean? All I found on the Google was a company that produces sim racing gear.
