Without payment :P
On the other side: in a real job if you overrun a release date, it usually comes with big fines the company needs to pay the customer for each day you are late. (at least it's like that at my job)
So that's an advantage :p

Well... Look at the Valve Time phenomenon. And as far as I know, they've never had trouble with prices :P

Have you seen the kickstarter thread? Maybe if openxcom gets support... It could be paid  much better. Sadly theres the need to have the original game (data), so it probably won't get THAT big support.

Kickstarter is probably impossible for OpenXcom. First, you need to live in Usa, second it requires data from original game. Also doing good kickstarter is hard - you need to organize everything, spend money on prizes, etc.

If some user here is millionaire or rich enough, he should drop couple thousands $ for Daiky (so he could leave his job ;)) and for SupSuper - so they could both work fulltime on OpenXcom ;)
