Subscription and making games

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Hi. I like to build some mobile game with corona, but I have some questions:

If i start programming the game can I build tower defense game with just downloaded sdk and without monthly subscribe?

Is there some documentation with all sdk functions for the free version of corona without subscribe.

If I subscribe and build some game and then stop subscription should stopping will affect the already released version of games?

I dont like to pay monthly if i’m not release new game or do some updates…

Thanks

Hi Igor.

Corona SDK subscription fees are billed annually, not month-to-month even though the prices are listed month-to-month.  Once you stop subscribing, your existing published apps will continue working for customers and can still be sold in stores.  You just won’t be able to update them to a new version.  You can do quite a bit with the Starter (Free) plan.  InApp purchases, advanced graphics features and premium plugins are the primary things not available to Starters.

The documentation for all API calls is here:  http://docs.coronalabs.com/api/index.html

If a given call is limited to a specific tier, then the individual documentation page should limit that.
