How Our Support Model Works
Learn how the DOSGAME.AT support model works, what a keyfile is, and why all of our releases will continue to be completely free.
Hello DOSGAMERS,
I’d like to take a moment to explain how our support model works.
First of all, the most important thing: All of our releases are completely free. Whether it’s a loader, trainer or savegame editor, every feature is available to everyone. We don’t lock any functionality behind a paywall, and you’re free to use our releases as often and for as long as you like.
Most of our releases display a short welcome screen for about ten seconds when they start. During this time you’ll see a unique QR code. Scanning it takes you to our Buy Me a Coffee page, where you can purchase a personal keyfile for that specific release for €5 and download it immediately.
Simply copy the keyfile into the game’s directory. From then on, the trainer will skip the welcome screen and take you directly to the main menu. It’s our small way of saying thank you for supporting the project.
If you prefer, you can also obtain the keyfile directly from the corresponding release page. Just click the small golden key icon and you’ll see how it works.
We recommend keeping a backup of your keyfile in a safe place. If you ever lose it, don’t worry. Just contact us using the same email address you used when purchasing the keyfile, and we’ll gladly send it to you again.
Please note that a keyfile normally works only with the release you supported. The only exceptions are cases where multiple releases are based on the same game, such as the AGA and SCI versions of King’s Quest. Whenever a keyfile supports more than one release, this will always be clearly stated on the respective release page.
Whether you decide to support our work is entirely up to you. Regardless, our goal remains the same: quality over quantity. Every release represents many hours of research, analysis and development, resulting in software you are unlikely to find anywhere else.
If you have any questions, suggestions or feedback about DOSGAME.AT, we’d love to hear from you.
Our goal is to establish DOSGAME.AT as a well-known name in the retro gaming community by creating original content, original software and releases that make classic DOS games more enjoyable to play today. We believe these games deserve nothing less.
Have fun exploring DOSGAME.AT!
See you around!
