As you all may have noticed: Itch.io and Steam have been hit with some weird puritanical tyrannical nonsense. Most of my games have been delisted and so many others have been as well. This platform felt like a safe haven to me and so many others. It's crushing to know that the place of my humble beginnings as a game dev no longer is a platform for myself and others like me who found a niche.
Thank you all who bought or donated, and thank you to all who played, rated and commented. it means so much to me that my games were enjoyed and hopefully will still be enjoyed even if they're no longer available on this platform.
Now, as an order of business, a last hail mary and a liiiiiiittle bit of spite: Cattle Castle 2 is now free, please grab a copy while you can! This version is more up to date than the pirated version anyway- so why not upgrade if you do have a pirated copy. Get better card drop rates and smoother frame rates etc~
Yes, there is still an update planned for CC2, though I have no idea what platform it'll be on, but I still intend to continue game dev, even if Itch falls in on itself. I support the freedom of expression in creative endeavors and honestly feel that raunch materials are completely valid and healthy. Y'all are good people. CC1.5 as a spinnoff game is also in the works and will be hosted elsewhere, and Cestoda Parasitis (assuming no one clutches pearls about my minotauress being busty,) should be due for a mega-update soon for the demo.
All of this to say I am ashamed, disappointed and honestly pretty angry at Itch.io for their decision to fold like a lawnchair to mastercunt and visux. So grab a free copy of CC2 and I am so so sorry that we likely won't be able to have live updates for lewd games on itch.io. Which is absurd that they don't seem to have any intentions of refunding anyone who's purchased games might be completely removed from their libraries. What a cowardly, knee-jerk reaction Itch...

don't worry I think we will win after all things are said and done🫂❤️🩹 because almost the entirety of the internet is against the changes on Steam and itch❤️🔥
good I really really hope for my sake and so so many others. Though this has damaged trust in sites and companies like itch and steam. Though I also understand they didn’t have much choice in the matter.
technically for both websites especially steam there is alternatives.
there's local banks in every country they could try to have instead of MasterCard and visa especially for example in my country of Denmark
our National Bank is prohibited from interfering with businesses and refused business to anyone if they are not doing something illegal, meaning if steam really wanted to?
they could try to localize for every steam user so they use then national bank, so I'm Danish. if I try to buy something on steam? I have to go through the Danish national bank
and if someone from Germany tries to buy something on steam? they will have to go through the German national bank and so on and so forth
that way no single bank has a lot of power, even if they tried to enforce some opinion or view
but yeah that would require a lot of work....

I would get a free copy but all of a sudden now your whole page is restricted from the uk
That's a UK specific thing. Texas did it a while back, you'll have to use a VPN to spoof your location.
i found a way around without needing a vpn, i can still access the games directly i just cant visit the creator's page
Like I said.
Thank you for the free copies, I wish I got them under different circumstances, but thank you none the less.
Just go to other sites man or make your own to sell your games its so sad that companies are going the parential right tried to buy a game and it said I couldn't buy in my territory so fucked.
yeah I’m definitely not quitting but this is certainly an annoying thing to deal with. I’ll be announcing where I’m heading in a while.
So long, we back more than a decade, but what a time to be alive. Now everything will shut down again, by people only cared for their business and by nothing more. Collective is only the excuse and they are being used in reality, it could be another group who would be aligned in their plans.
Thanks for CC2, oh it is voice acted !! it sounded so good.. thanks you very much.
