Steam Family Sharing

[Freejack_]

They have a way to share your games with friends and family through steam. It is in beta but since you can’t play all 200+ games you own at once (I know some of you would try) you can loan them out to friends and family. Again it is beta, so wewill have to see where it goes from here. To become pat of it you need to join the Family Sharing group.

This could really help us out. A lot of devels have limited review keys and we demand three.

That shouldn’t be an issue for a developer, hell back in the day I used to get Electronic Arts (before it was the bad guy) send me give away games for club meetings to promote their software. They used to send me 5 to 10 copies (boxed) games that we decided to review that month since releases where not as widespread per publisher. Sierra used to send me 5 copies of a game every month when we did our reviews with them. I guess that is why I don’t understand todays model……..

Valve can be stingy with keys for small indie devels.
