Hi! i've been playing around with the trial version of Hype 3 for the last couple of days and love it. Then I found out about this bundle. My question is: If I buy Hype 3 as part of this bundle, will I still qualify to buy the upgrade to the Pro features though the in-app purchase? Or will I have to stay on the standard version? Please let me know. I'm really looking forward to upgrade! :) Thanks in advance.
