Hello there,
Problem is that i am German and we are not allowed (as far as i know) to publish NSFW games on Steam >_<

Everyone is allowed to publish on steam, but to do so you must pay a small price fee for authorization, if you need it I can pay this fee for you by making a donation.

It's against German law to publish and buy NSFW games on Steam. In Germany there are no NSFW games on steam.

Well the publisher can publish the game on steam but only for every other country. In germany the problem is just that steam has no age verification, so all NSFW games are cancelled by steam for the region. That´s just because steam don´t want to put the verification system in, so all NSFW games on steam are aviable all over the world but not in germany...

You are right, I asked a German dev about this and they said they can actually publish their game on steam but they aren't able to see their own game page or play the game through steam. They had to ask someone outside Germany to check if everything looked alright and if the game was playable.

Oh... interesting.
But still.. so much hassle only for a small niche game on steam ^_^
I stay with itchy for now.
