Hey! Nice game, I Will buy it after work!! Congrats!

Now, some question about steam:

How they fix the price based on each country (here I can see the price at u$ 3.5). how is the deal with them?, that is the price for all the countries or you fix a global price and they make the cut?

I'm asking because I'm moving to USA and I'm staking games here in Argentina because the prices are, sometimes, 10 times cheaper.

Steam has regional pricing and we can set a price in local currency for each country separately. They also provide price suggestions. Argentina is one of the cheapest regions so you can definitely pickup cheaper games there.

Note that not all publishers have the same discounts. Check SteamDB for a price overview: https://steamdb.info/app/1594320/

3.50 USD?? Luxembourg is 30 bucks :/

His country median income is likely 10 times lower too... (if not more)
