I don't know how to get past the login on launch, it just gives me an error that says invalid email or password, and I've tried many times. The purchase page says it's linked to my account. Am I not supposed to use my itch account to login, or is this just some broken abandonware or something? did I waste my money?

No, this is not broken abandonware. You need to redeem the game key as shown here: https://itch.io/post/2085144

It is a link that lets you set up a game account - which is required to play VS

That's good to hear, I do want to play this. I just don't get it though, there is no button like that on my purchase page for VS, all it says is claim download key, not steam key? maybe something has gone wrong on itchs end?

Ooo it was that download key link, I got it working now!

Glad to hear you got it working. I do regret that its not a very user friendly setup.

Why not just do a itch.io integration from your backend to check if the email has purchased?

Good point, that would make a lot of sense. Never occured to me that itch.io had an api for this

I can send you my implementation, it could help with speed and understanding.
