!Aqua, at the moment this game is in it\'s very early stage so just be sure to mention that to anybody you tell.   Molecular Blue ( the name of the release ) is just an experiment to show the world that we are working on something and that we have an actual running program.  It does not contain all the elements to make up a full-fledged game yet so keep that in mind.

The best way to assure you won\'t pay is... to join the team, right? (Could be, could be). I\'m gonna apply for the designer part right now. The only language appropiate is English, right? (/me thinking about the delay of translating the ideas he had...)

There is not a best way to assure you won\'t pay, for the simple reason you will never pay to play Planeshift, regardless of what you do, as it\'s been officially stated in many occasion and places.

once again: Planeshift is open-source and under the GPL license
whih means you can take the programme source code for free and use it to e.g. start your own project, but that one also has to be under GPL.
also an application (or any other intellectual good) licensed under GPL is \"doomed\" to be GPL\'d and free for ever (unless the original outhor decides other wise in a newer version of the app ...which i\'m pretty sure won\'t happen to PS!)

for more info read: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html (especially the GNU General Public License ...that\'s also PS\'s license)
