I wish they could clarify things a bit.

Are these going to be polished short games or rough prototypes? DF did once release a pack of unfinished but playable games before, I'm guessing it's going to be something like this...?

And how they're going to stay afloat?
Is it going to be a subscription? Each game costing $1? Or they're hoping to strike gold with one of the prototypes and turn into full game before running out of money?
