These are: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>+ A new 90-day free trial of the Mac and Windows versions of the whole Affinity suite <\/li>\n<li>+ A 50% discount for those who would rather buy and keep the apps on Mac, Windows PC and iPad <\/li>\n<li>+ A pledge to engage more than 100 freelance creatives for work, spending the equivalent of our annual commissioning budget in the next three months (more details of this will be announced soon). <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The introduction of the 90-day free trial and deeply discounted pricing is done in the hope that this will make life a little easier for people who rely on creative software to make a living, but may be stuck at home without their usual tools, or for students who might not have access to their Affinity apps on their personal devices. <\/p>\n<p>In addition, by increasing our spend on commissioning work from freelancers we can also put some extra money into a part of the industry which will be particularly affected. <\/p>\n<p>We plan to make the free trial and additional discount available until 20 April, but we\u2019ll continue to review the situation as time goes on. <\/p>\n<p>We know we\u2019re not saving the world, but we hope these measures can at least provide some form of relief to those who need it. We\u2019ll pull through this together\u2026 <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>You can learn more about the deal and promo in the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/mVadnfM6M4g\">video<\/a> below.&nbsp; If you want to learn more about Affinity products check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=JrRFxzWYFac\">hands on video<\/a> available here.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">[embedded content]<\/p>\n<p class=\"under\"> <span class=\"categories\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamefromscratch.com\/category\/GameDev-News.aspx\">GameDev News<\/a><\/span> <span class=\"tags\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamefromscratch.com\/?tag=\/Tools\" rel=\"tag\">Tools<\/a><\/span> <\/p>\n<hr>\n<p> &lt;!&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serif, the makers of Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo are currently offering all of their products at a 50% discount.&nbsp; Additionally they are now offering a completely functional 3 month demo download.
