On TGC it's $99 (with discount $66), on Steam it's $49.99 (with discount $33).

edit:
Its well worth the money regarless of any deal or not...

i bet steam takes up to 30%.... If its simular to other stores... they take allot of dough.

support agk and spend that extra 33 dollars.

I've already purchased AppGameKit a couple of months ago.

I'm just asking about:
1. Is there any difference between Steam and TGC versions?
2. If v2 is already released, is that means that we will not have 3d animation commands and 3d physics in v2?

V2 is at a stage where it can be released on Steam, but the Kickstarter pledges are still being worked on.

I'm seeing the same $66.33 (33% off) everywhere: Steam, TGC, and the "bundlestars" (whatever that is).

The Steam and non Steam versions are the same, but you need to be logged into Steam (or in offline mode) to use the Steam version. Paul did say that Steam may get very minor updates more often or sooner than the non-Steam version, simply because it is easier to distribute minor updates via Steam than creating a new installer package. For the most part they should be basically in sync tho (afaik)!

You should only need to be signed in on Steam to initially download and install AGKV2 from the store. After it's installed you can launch it any time just by navigating to the install directory with or without Steam.

True, true. You can technically do that!

So one could uninstall Steam and still keep using AppGameKit?
