      It affects already released games as well, just the fee is only applied for new downloads in 2024 and after (but the calculation of total downloads for whether you're hit by the fee includes everything)

      Very questionable decision by them and just solidifies my switch to godot where I don't have to pay anything (and I'm sure the vast majority of the game jam crowd will be switching over as well)

        Yeah -- at this point I'm actively seeking out FOSS options for everything because it seems like literally every corporation wants to enshittify into a service at this stage. Will be interesting to see how everything plays out, if not just depressing.
