Buyer-Only Source Access Plugin
Create a plugin or web service that bundles source code as a paid entitlement for game buyers, connecting storefront purchases to controlled source downloads. This addresses the middle-ground model discussed by users: source access for supporters, without full public exposure.
이것이 중요한 이유
You want to reward supporters with access to the code, either because your audience likes modding, learning, or preserving games, but making the repository fully public feels too risky. Existing storefronts are built for distributing binaries, not managing source entitlements, license boundaries, and versioned developer materials. So you are left with awkward manual options: emailing archives, exposing too much, or not offering source at all. A buyer-only access layer gives you a practical middle path. It turns source code into an optional premium benefit while keeping access tied to legitimate purchases and clearer usage rules.

- · 가장 유력한 수익화 모델: SaaS subscription plus transaction tier.

근거 요약
AI가 이 인사이트를 합성한 방법 — 직접 인용 없음
A notable subtheme was the idea of sharing source only with paying customers rather than the full public. At the same time, participants recognized that convenience and legitimate access matter for buyers. That creates a commercially interesting niche: software that turns source access into a managed digital entitlement rather than an uncontrolled public repository.
