Submission to Steam #1586

Even if it's a long shot, I'd like this tracked so that I'm aware of when it's published and can try it (and hopefully leave a positive review).

It's also a way to earn some money if you charge for it like the Krita developers do.

Depending on what openage delivers via Steam, it might be not received well by Microsoft and World's Edge if openage charges money for something else than eventual own multiplayer services (and even that is super questionable). As long as openage uses converted assets and stuff from the DAT file of the original game, everything that involves earning money with openage becomes problematic quite fast, I would assume.

@simonsan, that's a very good point. I would support it being submitted for free too, though.
