The Demo Is Dead, Long Live The Demo

If I game doesn't has a demo, this means I have to take a risk.
This almost always means I'll only buy the game on sale.

Also not that I'm for this, but some people will pirate it instead, that's an even lower change for them buying the game.

These are mine view on this, but I might be one of those 6% :)

It then gives them 99 excuses not to buy the game.
->Excuses or reasons ?

I got my fill of gameplay already from the demo.
-> Smaller demo, simple.

In-App Purchase
-> I never use those! Maybe add a question box during buying: did you play the demo BEFORE assuming in-app purchases will be used by anyone.

So we know at this point that the game is going to run fine on your machine, and more importantly, so do you.
-> Welcome to lib-hell, some games don't ship static libs as a fallback.

Humble Indie Bundle
-> Quess twice how I calc the value of the bundle ?
Change I like the game * Change the game runs * What I would normally pay.
(So always smaller then what I would have paid.)

After playing the demo, i'd buy it, if it wasn't for the bug me loosing the savegame, this is probably because it's using flash+browser <facepalm>.
