Can someone verify that the Steam version is DRM'd?
Does it play inside a Steam window and is the UI any good?
- barik 14y agoThe FAQ seems [1] to answer this, though I don't know if the UI is any good. Personally, I want to watch it on my large screen TV through WD TV Live, not on my tiny laptop screen, which seems to imply that the direct non-DRM download (mp4) is the way to go. Steam - The film is on Steam for pre-order here. - In order to work on the Steam platform, the film will be delivered through a self-contained application (emphasis mine) from which you can watch the film in 1080P HD. - You will download the film application like any other game on Steam. - You can watch it on your computer or connect it from your computer to a television. - The Indie Game: The Movie application may have some interactive extras, subtitles and achievements (to be confirmed as we're working on that functionality). - Like other game applications on Steam, it will have DRM.

- ErrantX 14y agoIt comes as an Adobe Air app which launches full screen from Steam & plays the movie. UI is "meh", but not unpleasant. But you also get a DRM free Mp4 in the "%Steam%/Common/Indie Game the Movie" folder :)
- droithomme 14y agoThanks very much, I will buy it then. I have no interest in anything DRMd, it has been nothing but trouble. MP4 is the way to go for paying customers, since that's what the non-paying customers get after all.
