Steam Online Subsystem and Greenlight

[qdelpeche]

So I am not sure if this is actually a problem or whether I am just over analysing things, so here goes:

Do I need to be on Steam Greenlight before I can start putting in the Steam Online Subsystem and actually be able to get my test players to use it?

I understand Steam Greenlight and I am an active user of Steam, but I am not sure whether I can develop with the Steam Online Subsystem and let my testers play the game at the same time.

If there is any documentation on this, please can you share it with me … thanks. 8-}

Edit: Ahah … Epic Wiki to the rescue: Steam, Using the Steam SDK During Development

You do not need to have been Greenlit to start using the Steam SDK during your game’s development process.

And some more from that same wiki post: Online Subsystem Steam
