So Steam has tWoG on discount for only $5 this weekend.  But they only have the PC version.  How many here think it would be real cool if 2D BOY showed some love and gave a Linux (and Mac, I guess), version for $5 for this weekend only as well????  :o8)

Hmmm, thanks, that's helpful, (interesting that they were basically doing "cross platform" licensing for a while)...but I'm not asking for a direct download link if I buy it from Steam....Instead I'm saying, hey, since Steam is putting the PC version on sale, maybe 2DBOY wants to put the mac/linux versions on sale as well.  Or hell, since I'm selfish, just the linux version!

Very interested also... I have a Mac and came to check out if this was available for 5 dollars too.

How much do 2DBoy make from this?

I would venture a guess that it is not much...

support indie, and buy from the site!

Not so much per game yes but i think they sold a lot more games than they would do on a normal weekend
