Honestly I think it is a cash grab.  Cause it's posted here on Itch.io for $8 but no where in the description does it say locked behind a pay wall.  An that's exactly what it is.  Sure you buy the game for $8 but if you actually want the content you have to goto their patreon site and pay $25 for a Legend Tier a month on top of the $8 you just spent to get the game from itch.io.  So to me that is a Cash Grab and a scam.  Cause their are trying to have their Cake and Eat it also.  If I personally was Itch.io I would remove this game from their listing and Ban them for that shit.
