After conducting a survey, over 75% of the participants favored switching to a royalty fees based model. Here's what that change will look like:

• If you purchase(d) Redwood before Oct 1, you'll keep your unlimited projects perpetual license with full source code, free perpetual updates, and never owe royalties
• Indie Licensees can keep their current license or opt for a refund and switch to the royalty model
• After Oct 1, everyone can use Redwood with limited source code and 4% gross revenue royalties after $100k USD
• Custom licenses are available for full source code, console support, private/dedicated support, reduced royalty rate, and co-development

We’re excited to announce that Redwood recently received an Epic MegaGrant! This support from Epic Games will accelerate development of Redwood’s most requested features including gameplay templates with player counts of 100s-1000s per server and out-of-the-box support for seamless travel between persistent and instanced servers. With the MegaGrant, we’re excited to move one step closer to realizing our vision to make scalable multiplayer games more accessible.
