Do you provide Steam keys?
No, I sell games that are completely DRM-free. This means that there is nothing preventing or limiting you from installing and playing the game. As such, games from FireFlower Games never comes with Steam keys.
You can however contact me if you want a game you have on Steam (or other stores) to be available DRM-free on FireFlower Games as well (given it can be found in FireFlower Games’ catalogue of games). All you have to do is make a purchase on FireFlower Games and provide me with your username and proof that you own the game on the other platform.
