I would like to buy RimWorld. But when i click the link to buy it from there website(http://rimworldgame.com/) i only get 2 options.
1. Login with your paypal account
or
2. Create a paypal account and then pay.
I don't have or want a paypal account. How do i buy RimWorld then?
This is a common issue many indie devs have with paypal, its a simple option in Ludeon Studios paypal configuration. They even states on there website:
QuotePayPal processes all transactions. But it's no problem if you don't want to make an account! If you have a credit card, you can buy without making a PayPal account.
Anyway i've written them a email and just wanted to make them aware of it here too.
It looks like a nice game, hope they will fix the payment option soon.
No worries, at some point in the future RW will be also available on Steam and maybe even other platforms.
This way of acquiring it is only for early enthusiasts, no clue if Tynan will provide other options for getting into the Alpha.
PayPal's policies are a giant maw of confusion. I have no idea why they do what they do. My understanding is that pay-without-account is only available in some countries.
The game will be out on Steam so I hope you're okay with either making an account now or waiting and getting it then.
Im not ok with it :) since i would love to try it out. But i will wait for it to hit steam then and buy it then ;D
Best of luck with the game, will look forward to playing it!
