Paratropic game erased all downloads?

I purchased Paratropic on here a year ago with the ost, but now that I've come around to playing the game, I noticed all the downloads are gone. How can I trust to buy anything here when they can be scrubbed without compensation? 

it's just another developer using itch.io to sell their steam keys and only offer the game through steam. There was no real download to even get the game/soundtrack.

No, it definitely was sold DRM-free. In the download page there's "Download and install instructions from ArbitraryMetric: 'Just unzip.'"

Sorry to hear that happened to you. Unfortunately this can't be prevented, since creators must be able to update what files they offer. You can try to contact support and request a refund, but after such a long time it might not be granted. In the future, you should probably download games right after purchase, and hold onto the files.

I called them and they fixed it. Excelsior.
