Question for devs who've gotten onto Steam...  If a game (i.e. Neofeud) gets Greenlit on Steam, and some folks have already bought the game elsewhere, would the developer (I) be able to give Steam keys to the folks who have already paid for the game elsewhere?  I see that some games, like Kathy Rain say that people who've bought the game elsewhere can get a free Steam key...  Did Clifftop have to pay extra for the Steam keys or do they get like some free keys to give away as the developer?  Thanks!  (/Steam dev noob)

Yes. Steam keys are free for you. You generate them at will, and as the Valve documentation notes: They hold as much value as you give them.

Be wary about people demanding GOG keys, that is an ENTIRELY different story.  If you have questions about steam and the way it operates, PM me.
