Thinking of pre-ordering...

Is this game getting a physical release, or is it just a download? The pre-order page doesn't say either way and, as a rule, I tend not to buy games that don't give me a disc.

Thanks, the game looks really cool, and I'd love to buy it!

Digital only, I'm afraid. Physical boxed copies are well beyond our capacity to produce as a small company. There was talk of a boxed copy with a German version a while back, but the negotiations on that have taken a back seat to getting the game 100% done ;)

Hmm... guess my next question will be: What's the DRM situation? In the rare event that I do buy downloaded games, I always avoid stuff tied to some account (especially things like Steam).

That's too bad, seeing as we're going with Steam distribution. The game will only connect online to sync savegames with the cloud if you want to, other than that I don't think it'll do very much in terms of preventing you playing.

But if people don't like Steam, people don't like Steam. Interestingly enough, Steam isn't actually DRM-focused: You can use any DRM you want on top of Steam, seeing as that's just the distribution platform.

Will I only be able to get it on Steam, or will there be an option for a standalone download?

How about bringing Desktop Dungeons to GOG.com? All games offered by this digital distribution service are DRM-Free. No additional apps required.
