Very progressive publishing model. You can do neat things like this when you’re not tied to traditional publishers.
This seems like a very smart move. Bring Savage 2 to a LAN party. Everyone plays the free edition on the LAN and gets hooked. Everyone buys it. For 30 US bucks, they probably would.

The press release says Savage 1 will be online for free too. Will that include the Linux version?

Yes I might should. Not that I have time for beta testing or anything. They might need the money more then I do right now.
