I just posted a quick summary of my experience of Armadillo on the IndieGamer forums. I actually wrote about it in more detail in March but there are a few extra points in this summary like why I had to get a custom build of Armadillo.

I use the $299 version. I bought the $150 version first discovered it didn’t do 60 minute trials and had to upgrade but made a small saving with the upgrade, 10% 🙂

Anyway, there’s tons of options I didn’t really understand until I read up and asked other people. Also my first wrap was detected as a trojan by a user’s anti-virus program so I got a custom build. The HTML pages took ages to make (even though Indiepath helped a bit) and aren’t very flexible.

I use it to make free keys sometimes and it integrates with BMT and Plimus (and probably Share-IT), what I mean is they auto-generate keys and send it to customers, which is cool.

Basically it’s a bit tricky to use but once you’ve sussed it out, it does the job. My games are all cracked but I can’t tell if it’s from my release or the portal’s releases…
