Creating a Trial game that can be unlocked with a code

by john m ingato · in Torque Game Builder · 11/12/2009 (6:25 pm) · 1 replies

I am an amateur programmer and I'm just finishing up my first game using TBG. I was wondering to implement having a trial version that gets unlock with a code. I want to be able to offer a demo of my game and unlock it just like this game, but I'm not sure where to begin. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks

-John

Hey John,

What you're looking for is referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Management).

A little while back Amaranth Games posted a guide containing everything you need to know about releasing your own game. This guide will help you not only with DRM, but with Installers and Distribution to!
