Does the SDK have a trial version?

I was wondering that... couldn't find any, but the thing is that I really wanted to take a glimpse not only on what torque can DO, but also how it's done. I'm now in the process of collecting donations to buy the engine (got 30$ already, yay ^^), but I really would like to have a 'taste' on what it feels like to developgames in torque in this meantime.
PS: I really don't think there actually is a way of testing the engine in that way, but I wanted to get a confirmation...
O yea, and btw: my company's site is www.mlgstudio.co.nr, if any of you would like to see what I intend to do :) it's a competition-style MMOG with tactical battles like the ones in Final Fantasy Tactics and Shining Force. thanks a lot ^^
and if you'd like to donate a buck or 2 to help a fellow indie designer make it into the community... me and the whole dev team would be most thankful :)

The TorqueDemo is the "trial version". It basiaclly gives you everything except the engine's source code to mess around with.

Having a trial to the source cod3e wouldn't work so well :)

Well, not to the source code, but rather the tools, like the mission editor.

You can test out the mission editor using both the demo app and the realm wars demo. Hit the F11 to open the editor use the window menu to use the editor features.

But my team now is... they're 3 more people who happen to be between the age of 14-15 and can't have acess to a credit card or receive very low allowances...
Well, the fact is, don't tell them that if you meet them (:P) but I don't think they're suited for this project, and I'm most likely replacing them once I get the license.
