Really cool idea. Glad to see the subscription model being used in video gaming. How do you install and control game software? How do you uninstall it when someone unsubscribes? Do you use an application manager similar to AWS WAM to manage the application locally?

Our client acts as a downloader, installer, and launcher. So the game is installed on your local machine entirely. We don't remove the games when you unsubscribe, they just become locked. That way you can pick up where you left off easily.
