Do I have to pay for every version released? I already paid for the last version and now its asking me payment for 0.4.0 as well? Wouldn't it be best to charge one time fee for the whole series?

hello there, default price for the game is 5 $(thats the suggested price). The update itself cost 3.75$( now it’s 50% sale because of itch’s august sale). The next update will be 4$, etc. 

If you pay the suggested price of 5$, all of the next updates you can download for free, because you payed more then the price of the next update.

The third option is to wait this update become free when the next one is published.

Best wishes

btw, I do it that way, because I’m not sure how anybody  will pay 10-12$ for early access of such a game with all updates included (5$ is more affordable even if you have to pay it two times, the price will be 10-12$ again but you’ll decide if the game is good enough to pay the full price). Thing that as my new idea for more user-friendly business model :D

i still don't understand. I payed 3.75 for last update. How much more do I have to pay so that I can have access to all updates hereafter?

Soooo, first, you didn’t payed for the previous update (0.3.1) 3.75$. You payed 3.50 $. The current one costs (0.4.0) 3.75$. The next one(0.5.0) will cost 4.00$. The next-next one will costs 4.25$, etc. I expect around five more updates for this game, so, yeah. The final update will cost 5$.  Finally, you’ll pay(if you bought every update, of course) around 15-16$ for the final product, as much as in steam for that kind of game. BUT! If you’re smart enough, you’ll pay 5$ (suggested price) and if I can understand itch.io’s logic that will give you access to the whole files which are under 5$(yeah, it’s strange that logic).

I hope now it’s clear how is my pricing working.

P.S. finally, I hope you don’t expected the full game costs 3.5$. That will be… will be Underwhelming.

Thanks for clarifying!

I’m glad I helped.

With the latest notice about ban. Are you saying that I would have to pay again in another platofrm to gain access? That doesn't seem fair.

This game (Enslaver-Dark path PartTwo) is on stand by until I resolve that issue. The options are two:

1. Leave the itch.io because they’re fuckin’morons.

2. Trying to use another account for the new games.

3. It’s not seem fair itch.io to change their TOS on the fly too. But cest la vie.
