  It is bad phrasing, I think they meant each month you need to pay X for the installs of the month. You pay only once per install. Also what is an install? Why not go with "user", someone installing the game 5 times is gonna cost 1$? Terrible communication all around form Unity.

    Not just "what is an install?" but "how do they detect installs?" Does every Unity game have always-online DRM included now? Will pirates count, so Unity demands a share of money you didn't make? If you give out an open beta to the public, do those development versions count as installs? Unsurprisingly, the FAQ does not answer much.

So every single person that open the web page is going to cost me 0.20$?
