I have contacted Nokia about this already but I haven't received any information yet.

Thanks all for your support about still buying the game, it's well appreciated.
As I checked the level pack 1 is available from the browser-based ovi thingy after payment, but from command line "# apt-cache search angry" will show that it is in the apt's catalogue and it also downloads and installs. I would assume everything is downloadable if they are listed - which shouldn't be the case, clearly store is instead of beta a bit alpha I would say

I checked the ovi-repository definition in Application Manager after the update. I was expecting similar individual address as with Nokia binaries in scrachbox. The url was clear without any identifying data, so I was thinking that there has to be some other implementation, so that the customer info from the browser is transferred via Application Manager to the apt-get downloading the package from the repository; i.e. the customer is identified and can download only those packages which are free or paid.

(private repository url's could be the same way as in scratchbox Nokia binaries are set: "deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/[UUID here] nokia-binaries". The difference is that the identifying info would be in the url, not in some cookie etc. that is transferred over the connection)
