If someone were to make software, would they still need to buy a license? Or do you only need the lisence for games?

If you want to make money on the software you need to buy a license.

You're not allowed to make software that isn't a game without a license.

You can make anything you want with the GDK without buying the license. BUT... you are not allowed to take money for it.

So. You can make a leveleditor and give it away for free. You can make a game and give it away for free.

But it you want to make a leveleditor and let people pay $5 for it, you need to buy the license.

Very easy to understand
