KneeTheCap: They didn't specify the reason other than that they don't plan to have free-to-play -titles on their store. I do not know if they really did think Traum would have microtransactions.
Could you contact them again, and specify that's it's freeware, not free to play.
avatar
CymTyr: They probably don't want to set a precedent where they start hosting free games, because that borders on file hosting, which is a lot less "legitimate" in some gamers' eyes, than say "selling games". The free ones they do host are very small in file size, generally.

MarkoH01: But Traum also is only 256MB.
Ah. I've been waiting to install it, didn't know the total file size. Oops!
hmmmm......

Yes, Traum is now released on Steam!

If it would have been possible, we'd have released it here as well. But it's DRM free on itchio and steam (you should be able to launch the game without steam. If you can't, please let me know).
With Knee's permission, I am going to be streaming the game on Twitch on Wednesday starting around 1pm Eastern, 10 am Pacific. If you want to bookmark the link, here it is: http://twitch.tv/cymtyr42 - I won't be streaming before Wednesday, but I auto host some cool people, so if you're looking for some entertainment and GOG's channel isn't online, feel free to watch the autohost before then.

Have a great night, everybody! I look forward to hanging out with you Wednesday!

Hey, make sure to keep this stream archived. Maybe we will be able to convince GOG after all ;)

:D Now I have to figure out how to save it XD Hopefully twitch auto saves. I'm VERY new to twitch.

EDIT: Got OBS set up so it'll stream Traum and record our session tomorrow, and it will be my first upload to Twitch! Thanks to Knee and his gang for putting this game together!

Thanks!

EDIT: It'll store the video for 14 days. Looks like I might have to record it, anyway.

The stream is now live if you're interested to see the game!
Here's the video if you'd like to watch my playthrough. For some reason it does not include the chat, though.

Enjoy!

According to user reviews, we might have made a decent game! :D


"Cannot recommend this game enough. Gripping narative, fantastic visuals, amazing soundtrack. Not to mention, it's really creepy. More so than most AAA horror games. It's free, definitely get it. Would support the creators in future."


"Although short, Traum is a good RPGMaker -game with a well-written story and some horror elements. The hand-drawn characters look great and the music felt chilling on several occasions. I also enjoyed all the pop culture references that were hidden in the game.

Add in the fact that the game is completely free, you're not really losing anything by trying it out yourself."


"I adored this game, the story is very well driven and i didnt find myself getting bored as i sometimes easily do with RPGmaker games! This story in itself was very unique. it kept me on a twist and turn of emotions and gave me some really mixed feelings about the MC, which really was great for the storyline. It's easy to make a unlikeable MC, but what you did here was make us pity him more than dislike, it was very heartbreaking.
I 100% recommend this game to others, may give you a clearer light on some situations you may have in the future, or its just a really good playing experience!
Thank you for the amazing experience, and keep making inspiring games :)"


To all of you who have played Traum, thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart :)

Weird, it didn't show up yesterday when I went to make sure it saved properly. SORRY.

EDIT: Also apologies for all the chat reading. I'm still fine tuning my broadcasting chops, while staying true to myself.
