My apologies, let me clarify. The javascript version of the game does not have a public download for offline play that I'm aware of. In order to play it, you must go to Fen's website and play it online. Anyone can do this for free. Patrons can link their login to the site to access a separate online hosted build of the game, which will have early access to content that's added in the future, just like the flash version.Now I'm confused again as there are 2 totally different answers.
Hargan2 said TiTS will take the "HORNSTOWN" online approach - which really sucks as then they can do more, like inserting Ads everywhere, patreon exclusive contents, more risk your patreon account get data breach, etc. (But then it make sense you need to download the whole thing everytime)
RNPA1 says this is more of a "beta testing" thing, that TiTs will remain the same as before (flash) - free to public, Patreon only get privilege like early access?
Edit: But then again, I'm only here for the free ride. Either route the devs plan to take is totally understandable.
Just wanna know what to expect in the future: a real "free" game, or a so called "Free to play" but with tons of premium gimmick.
Personally, I've no problem to pay for a finished product, but not "Freemium" or financially backing development.
So: Anyone can play the game online through Fen's website, but Patrons get early access to stuff just like in Flash. Fen simply no longer offers the ability to play the game offline. The offline downloads hosted here are acquired somehow, and generally contain the patreon builds afaik.
Also, I never said TiTs would take the Hornstown approach, I said the game was online-only, which it technically is. My apologies if I wasn't clear.
