IMPORTANT!

Hi again everyone! 

I'm afraid what has been worrying us for the last few weeks is now happening.

We've received a complaint through the Itch.io system regarding our project Lovecraft Locker: Tentacle Lust. Here is the exact email that we received:

Given that, we'll be pausing production, development, and all further updates to Lovecraft Locker and instead focus all our time and effort on our next game. We'll at least going to try to appeal through Itch regarding our project as we believe that our game is significantly different to be qualified for the reason "doesnt_own".

When we were notified regarding this complaint, I was still in a negotiation phase with HotPinkGames. After receiving that report and almost a week of message exchange, it's conclusive to say that our team and HotPink Games Circle are in no condition to form a mutual agreement due to a conflict of interest. I won't specify anymore as we want to respect the privacy of HotPink and the others involved.

Regardless if we managed to appeal our case with Itch, we'll still be pausing updates for Lovecraft Locker just as requested by the Tentacle Locker creators. If the worst case comes and Itch demands that our game page is removed or taken down, we'll host the game on a new website but still pause development.

We've only got  40+ days to work on Lovecraft Locker from the ground up, we still got plenty of updates planned in mind (new tentacle gods, new kinks, new gameplay, better visual novel,  etc.) but it was definitely a worthwhile experience. Our team learned animation, better optimization, and programming techniques that will surely help us on our future game projects. We were all barely getting any rest, but we never felt tired because we were doing what we love. 

Anyway, I hope you all will like our next game project: Tentacle Fantasy Soda!

Thank you all, and catch you soon :):):)
