A number of you have expressed interest in purchasing Shivah Deluxe, and have asked me a few questions. Here are most of the questions that have come up, which I will answer in one chunk:
Q: When will the deluxe version be finished?
A: You can purchase the game on August 14th.
Q: Wait a minute… “purchase”? You’re actually charging MONEY for this?
A: Er, yes. Haven’t you been paying attention?
Q: All right, you capitalist swine. How much blood money do you want?
A: Five US dollars
Q: How will payment be accepted?
A: I am going to have an online store ready to accept orders. The store will accept orders through paypal, which takes payments via credit card or checking account.
Q: I don’t have a paypal account or credit card, but I’d like to buy the game! Can I send you the cash?
A: Of course. Contact me privately for my address. Sending me the cash in US dollars is no problem. Foreign currency is OK, but since currency exchanges charge a fee to convert the money (and it’s a bit of a hassle for me), I will have to charge you an extra buck. The process would go much faster if you could do the exchange on your end, first.
Q: How will I receive the game.
A: When you place the order with the online store, you will be able to download it.
Q: Can you ship the game to me on a CD?
A: Sure I can, but standard shipping charges will apply.
Q: Can I get the game for free?
A: Hm, let me think about that for a min-NO! If you want the game for free, try entering the fanart contest.
Q: What about your other games? Will you make deluxe versions of those?
A: At the moment, there are no plans to do that.
Q: So what’s your next project?
A: All will be revealed, my child. Wait until the 14th.
Q: Can I reserve in advance?
A: You bet! Click on the donation button below.

I paid for the game and have a paypal receipt, but I can’t download! It doesn’t show up as purchased in the “my account” section of the store.

G’day Dave
How the heck do I register in order to be able to purchase your game?
Cheers, Rick McQueen-Thomson

Are you going to have a Mac version of this game?

Your presentation projects tremendous candor.
BUT your testimonial is anonymous!
Would you care to identify the author of the testimonial?

I also just purchased the game via paypal on the online site and the game page does not have a link to download. What gives! I want to find out the mystery of “the shiva”, not the myster of my disappearing $5!!!

Hi all,
That old store is obviously not very reliable so we closed it and set up a new one. http://www.wadjeteyegames.com/store. Apologies for the issues.
