Key for Multiwinia Steam?
Hi, I just downloaded and played the demo from the Introversion website, and the game is fantastic. I decided to purchase the game through steam, but as I'm running off of a linux box, there is a bug in wine that prevents me from launching the game through steam. Since I know the non-steam demo works great on my machine, is there any way to play the non-steam version of the game (without buying an additional copy)? My guess is not, but I thought I'd ask before giving up. Maybe I'll be able to play my shiny new Multiwinia game someday...

Indeed, it does.
Just tried it being I use steam and I verified it does indeed unlock the demo into the full version.
So, this allows us to escape the Steam DRM that so many dread and still be able to use the game if Steam servers go down. \m/

Apparently, you keep your steam key forever (ie it's assigned to your account).
The only downside is you don't get achievements, because you're not running it through steam.
