Welcome to the F95zone. Let's move there. At least people can see game updates there.

My game has disappeared as well as everyone else. That is, porn lying on every corner is normal. My game, where all adults, etc. - not normal?

I'll be signing up after today. Itch has lost my respect...

I was publishing my game on this platform because I knew there were quite a few people here who no longer visit other sites to look for such games.
As for Itch.io itself — it annoyed me for just one single reason, but oh god, how much it annoyed me.
I'm talking about the Most Recent game category that works in some completely incomprehensible way.
For your game to appear there after an update, a planetary alignment practically needs to happen.
Specifically: the update has to be massive and it has to be reviewed by a moderator — a process that takes around a month (I waited two).
But now… I don’t know. If they don’t reverse this decision, Itch.io is in for hard times financially, and game developers might end up facing increased fees as Itch.io tries to cover its financial black hole.

I hope they’ll limit themselves to a set of rules for such content — which, technically, already exists, but Itch.io just didn’t give a damn about it until now.
If that’s the case, the platform will just get cleaned up.
But if they force creators to remove nudity altogether, then that’s straight-up f*cked.

this place is probably done. Just forget about it and pull your game. Steam is $100 for a listing... cheap right?

Steam is also proving to cave to pressure as well. Plus Steam bans some games from being published that were uploaded to itch.io in the first place.

Mine has disappeared from searches a week after I launched the page(in january), and has not returned.

The problem with F95 is that you have to consent to alternative versions if you're making a commercial game.

This is what is bugging me about going forward with it.
