Dungeons of Dredmor Release FAQ

After the recent announcement that Dungeons of Dredmor would come to Steam on July 13th, Gaslamp Games’ Nicholas Vining has put together a FAQ to clear up some confusion surrounding certain subjects, which include the operating systems the game is going to be released, whether the game is a Steam exclusive (it isn’t) and whether the game is going to include DRM or not. Here’s a snippet on Steam:

(Why do we have to wait two weeks to buy a game which is already done?)

As you may have noticed, Valve has some kind of a Summer Sale thing about to go. although I don’t see a formal announcement yet, people have started talking about it so I guess the cat is out of the bag. Anyhow, we can’t put Dredmor up during the Summer Sale, so you have to wait until it’s over. Sorry, folks.

(I don’t like Steam! Why does the game have to be a Steam exclusive?)

Dungeons of Dredmor is not a Steam exclusive. We’re just launching there first. This has everything to do with us being a small company, and needing to focus our resources on getting one distributor set up at a time. We are considering other alternatives, but we haven’t gotten there yet. Steam will certainly end up being the best place to buy Dredmor for awhile, anyhow.
