I think that when free copies have left then it should refer to automatically or manually to another program,what should be started next day.Otherwise there should be seem like competition is not yet ready, but there have no keys anymore.So it is like full version program, where giveaway is expired.

It expired before it even started only 10,000 licences, I was looking forward to trying this and would have paid for it if i liked it

USorry to hear yoz're out of keys. Would have been nice to adjust the page so that one knew this faster :)

I'm not sure a quantity limited offers belongs in this section. Such an offer would better be placed separately. Who makes sure the keys are allocated evenly, So each gets a single key? IMHO GAOTD has a way to predict the demand for each product, and make sure everybody gets an equal chance to obtain one. It would be awkward if people miss their share just because they live in a certain time zone on this planet.

Did anyone get a key?

Please notify me if more keys become available!

As a gold backer for fps reloaded which is now Game Guru i still have unused
keys. and for 10,000 keys to be given away is more than enough Thats £ 150,000 . I just think its strange that there is no mention of this give away
on GameGuru web site i`m sure some of the people who vist the site would have liked a free copy.

At a certain time I stopped checking my email last night due to fatigue. When I awoke this morning, and opened email account, there was the game offer from yesterday. I hoped I wasn't too late as this is something I'm very interested in. Opened the website - yes! - still 9 hours of giveaway. Scrolled down. No! No more keys left (?).
Hope there will be more keys allotted. Rarely do these opportunities come up.

Missed the chance of trying this, hopefully, they will make some more keys available for us slow coaches.
Thanks

I would really like to get a key. Please make more available. I'm curious how long it took for them to all be gone.

It's only 1 p.m., the usual time of day I get online and come to this site to see if there is something offered I would enjoy. I'm a 61 yr old grandma who builds her own computers and tests games for developers in my spare time. Most of the programs offered over the past 6 months aren't things I need or use. THIS one was and of course there are none here. Funny that. First time I've ever seen that large of an amount of programs be totally gone so early in the day and I've been coming here for many years. (Been online almost every day since 1993 as far as that goes, heh.)

The next time this is offered, I pray this site or the developers will check the IP addys of everyone that connects to this site (no VPN addys that would allow cheating either if that's possible, not sure since I don't code) and limit each IP to one download. That way, the regular customers of this website will also get a chance to actually download this program that it seems many of us are interested in, but were not able to download today.

(For those who would shake their finger at me and say 'just go buy a copy' ... I am on S.S.I. Disability for Crohn's Disease and a few other not quite so severe health conditions. Living off of $750.00 a month means I never have any extra money for things like programs I must pay for. Even the games I play I am blessed to have only because the wonderful game developers are kind enough to allow me to be an Alpha and Beta tester, which then lets me keep the game once it's finished as a thank you for the help during it's development.)

Thank you and I'm praying I will get another chance to download this program.

No keys left! Wow! That went fast. :( I was looking forward to using this program.

I've seen this program in action, and can't wait to see if they offer up more keys. Well worth the try. Perhaps I'll see the e-mail sooner.

This game looks really interesting but was sad to find out all the keys were already given away. Please let me know when more keys are available as I would really like to try it.

Received the email with the key but it's saying that it is a duplicate key when entered in Steam. I"m really excited to try this. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Marc

After about 1 year of no interest in any giveaways and checking EVERY SINGLE DAY, there once is a one id like to have.

It would be nice if the developer would send more keys to legit requesters. Those key farmers ruin things for everyone!!! more would be nice.

Well I got finally the emailed link and the page doesn't exist and then I found out that all the keys were gone.. too bad. I didn't act fast enough... I thought that you place was secured once they send you and email link, but I guess not..

I just received the email featuring this game. I was ready to complain about having to join another website to activate this but then I saw they were all taken anyway. Oh well.

Please notify us if more keys become available! But it's hard to imagine 10,000 are already gone.

Same problem here: "The product code you've entered has already bee activated by a
different Steam account. This code cannot be used again. Please
contact the retailer or online seller where the code was purchased for
assistance."
So I am asking did anyone succeed in getting a key AND use it on Steam? I got a key but is not valid.

Hello!
I did get an email with a downloadlink to a ZIP-file (apparently that's where the key is suppose to be inside) but trying to open the link returns me to the GOTD website with a 404 error instead.
Is that already the sign for "no more available keys" or was I still able to secure one and the link is just broken?

Why is the download not available when about 17 hours are left?

If you do get a key, consider there is a lot of space needed on the HD for installing Steam and the GOTD-offer:

It is possible to download/install the steam-packages to another map:

The example had something to do with rifles and killing people.
In the library I did find a bird and stables:

The test was done on a laptop, i7-4710MQ 2,5Ghz, 16Gb.
And the examples was not fast; it took some time to react on a command.

Huge pity...bots hindering the giveaway. :-(

Wow, guess I better start getting up at midnight to check for giveaways.

10,000 codes, 69 votes and 10 comments? I'm no mathematics major but something doesn't add up.

Sad that you are out of 10K keys; I'd like to try this.

to sad allready ended no codes....
ill bet all the codes are taken by bots

So if no keys are available maybe remove the download now link so that I don't have to then enter my name and email to be told that 'Activation codes ended'

Duplicate Product Code

The product code you've entered has already bee activated by a
different Steam account. This code cannot be used again. Please
contact the retailer or online seller where the code was purchased for
assistance.

signed up for a Steam account, was accepted, went to the games menu - no such selection of "Activate a Product on Steam".
Are all 968 keys already taken?

I get this message after entering my name and email to get the personal key:

"Activation codes ended"

So I guess this was a limited number of keys?

Activation Code Ended!

??? Activation codes ended.

Installed, started reading the Help guide.
Next, tried the suggested demo game. After loading the suggested game, the screen was a blank dark gray. There was no clue what to do next.
Next, I opened the File menu, chose legacymaps, then selected default, which seemed like it might be a good place to start, but then a small dialog popped up with an error message:
Runtime Error: 0: BT Error: Heightmap doesnt exist
Function: BT Build Terrain ()

I had to use Task Manager to get out of a black screen (escape did not work)

I am not sure what resources is necessary to use the product, but if 16 Gig isn't enough, I will be out of the game Guru business before I ever got started.

Anyone else getting a duplicate product code error? I get that there are only a few numbers but I would think that they would stop giving them rather than give the same ones over if they ran out.

Hello! The given key is already activated on other steam account!

Steam: "Duplicate product code
The product code you've entered has already been activated by a different Steam account..."

Next step?

I'm still waiting for my activation code .....nothing in my inbox or my spam folder....

I'm not sure how useful this will be to me, though I've dabbeld in game design in the past, but this is the first GOATD for a long while that appears to be of any use or interest.
For those confused by the text only mail, it's a Steam key - one of a limited number of pre-allocated keys I guess - that simply needs the Steam client installed on your PC (cue the naysayers!) and as such it's been a doddle to install - for a change - no hoops to jump through and as it's via Steam it's a pretty good chance it's not bloatware etc

Great, the first thing in ages worth trying and it's limited to a certain number of people. By the time I get home from work it will be all gone. Shafted again.
