From the developers/distributors.

In a hidden place in this world, where just a small group of people knows of its existence. In this magical land you can find all good sorts of things, like unicorns and unlimited ice cream. And when it rains, it rains Steam keys.

If I were a key, I want to be the master key. Fitting in EVERY lock in the world, even in the girls' holes :D

Alaska.

Where do keys come from....well...everytime you put a key into a keyhole you impregnate the door and some time later a new key pops out.

In recent days the use of keycards has grown and it's still the same principle as long as you have to stick it in somewhere or swipe it throug a slot. But it doesn't work with proximity keycards....those are the gay marriages of the key community.

when a man and a woman love each other very much, something something something keys, the end

They come from where the sun doesn't shine...

Any developer/publisher can generate as many keys for his game as he want on steam itself. So long story short:

1. Dev/Pub contacts bundle page or bundle page contacts dev/pub
2. They agree on terms.
3. Bundle request particular number of keys. Let's see they assume they gonna sell ~7k bundles, so they order 10k keys just in case.
4. Dev/Pub logs into his dev/pub account on steam and generates 10k keys
5. Dev/pub sends them to bundle site
6. Bundle site after bundle ends gives dev generated money and either gives key back or put them on sale in their non-bundle store.

Source - few friends who published their games on Steam ;)

Well you see, when a mama key and a papa key love each other very much...

lol! Nobody is realizing, that the question has been modified :D

hm id be golden tiny key which fits everywhere, and is handy in every case, a key that has special abilities like flying,containing zoo in itself, and 3 wishes. As to the question where the keys come from.. Hm from the keymakers in the stores which turns them into game keys so nwo instead of begging here for keys, go to ur local key store and start begging there,

go to ST

Profit

obviously from this Keygen

Well Billy, keys come from a special place when two people love each other. The developer decides that they would like their bouncing baby game to be shared in this great wide world. Then they pass off the code to be bought or given out where people can check out a video or demo of the game. Then the future guardian decides they want to enjoy the game. They get a key from a magical fairy, who let's them enjoy the game on Steam. Then they will play with the game and voice their opinion and if they like it the developers will create a brother or sister that will continue the legacy of them.

It is said that there is one great motherlode of keys, protected by Gaben himself. If something would happen to Gaben(God preserve him), the motherlode would be obliterated. Thus - no more keys for anyone. So don't you people make fun, or poke Gaben, for he is our salvation. Amen!

Ive heard anything that comes out of Gabe are steam keys, like when he sneeze or talk. Theres a whole department on steam solely to catch them after him.

I'd be a key to your heart. Naaa, just kidding. Why open a heart when you can open a bank strongbox? A huge strongbox, where all keys come from, because keys are more important than money.
