Some of you were wondering if this is some kind of holidays special or not:
AX:EL will remain free so you all can enjoy AX:EL as much as I and the community enjoyed it while it was growing.
Technology is going forward, time passes for games too, it's time for AX:EL to be free for everyone.
I really wish to thank all of the players who supported it by buying the game and all of those who were helping troubleshooting and testing it!
