What happens when DLC practices go too far? An indie developer makes a game that mocks the industry and its foibles, that's what! Defeat the bad guy, save the world and get the girl! But first you'll need to find coins to buy DLC to enable animation, sound and even pausing.

Thankfully this is just satire and all the DLC is purchased with in-game coins. But consider it a cautionary tale for the future...

Features:
- Platforming action! Coins to collect, a princess to save, a bad guy to defeat. You like that stuff, right?
- 16 different DLC packs, each providing quiet introspection on the state of the gaming industry
- 10 awardments to earn and make you feel reasonably satisfied with yourself

That doesn't really answer the question of whether people who bought the Desura version before the Steam version even existed will get a key, only what future buyers will get.

Also, amazing game. The original campaign alone has tons of replay value and is hilarious. I'm yet to try out the 'Freemium or Die' expansion but I just hope for something equally as good.

I know that you posted this awhile back, in response to spookybro's comment, but this game is easily an hour long if yo udo everything to perfection with tons of replay value on the original alone. I got 3 hours of genuien entertainment out of this game. It's a spoof but it's done well.

Short, but very enjoyable and worth what you're paying for.

At that price I though it would be longer than what we can find for free on the internet ... Very linear and the jokes are easy.

Check online for "achievement complete" & "upgrade complete"
More interesting than that imho.

@CarlWilhoyte As long as they're flexible with whose blood can be used, I can work with that.

The burning question on everyone's mind for #XboxReveal: can it play DLC Quest?

While we wait for the #XboxReveal, check out this blast-from-the-past DLC Quest interview from @EightBitMonster T.co

@Qarx If you have an Indie Royale copy, just log in to your collection on the IR page. Steam key already added!

DLC Quest is sitting at #2 on @GreenManGaming Top Sellers list! You're next, Total War: Rome II! T.co
