Uh, did they change anything new? I haven't gotten any threatening emails yet so I might be out of the loop.

This topic has more information on it, but essentially the itch.io direct payment system is being removed for adult games. It's possible - given the content of this game - that it may also run into the same issues some other devs have run into. Really hard to tell tbh.
Ohhh, that. Yeah, I followed that when it was fresh and communicated with other devs. I can't say for certain - Itch never quite answered the question - but from what I could tell and others investigated, most of the people that got hit by that were using certain uh, advertising or posting techniques that were pretty abusive and added a lot of stress to itch, or had 0% revenue share, or both.
So there's always a possibility that Itch will change rules and ban all adult games, and if that happens I'll figure out how to make sure you continue getting updates without having to pay again, but at the moment I don't intend to make any preemptive changes. Itch isn't super profitable for me, but it's extra views and some help with living expenses, so I'm not dropping it unless I have to. I just give them their default share and update the same page which *seems* to avoid the problems the others ran into.
Reading the proposed changes was like "wait, what's the real issue here, revenue sharing, people whining about adult games, ways to support a dev that does adult content, or what?" Not to mention the whining about it... Ashley or Sarah, I need a drink, STAT!
More important matters are how soon are we going to see Ina, Kuril, and Kandros make a triumphant return, whether Amnelis returns to flirt shamelessly with the MC and have the others object that it's so blatant, and if the MC has to do anything weird (like kissing Kuril) to be knighted by Ina!
Very important questions! Amnelis has an incoming CG (probably the update after this coming one), while Ina and friends will return... exact ETA unknown, probably the update after that. Depends on how fast wrapping up Deepwoods stuff goes and how much energy I have for the next update lol. This one has been absolutely kicking my ass, I need to get this done and then rest.
