itch.io

The issue with collections is that it is not shown in the main section of the profile, and whatever text or info we add to those games is also not shown (unless you open the collection's link separately, which then takes you away from the profile and whatever info is there).

We might try the contributor approach though. Thanks.

Dear itch.io moderators,

We are a publishing label for students at Cologne Game Lab. Cologne Game Lab (CGL) is a Cologne University of Applied Sciences campus dedicated to developing games. We help our students publish their games by providing marketing and quality control services. We are encouraging our students to self-publish their projects on itch.io. To do this, they create their own itch.io accounts and pages. However, we want to also showcase some of these projects on our page to gradually build a portfolio of the best student projects. And we don't want to take ownership of the projects by forcing students to publish their games under this page. Therefore, we need a feature to showcase/redirect to these projects without publishing them ourselves.

As of today, such a feature does not exist on itch.io. We have already done this once for a project by contacting the support team at itch.io (see attached image). However, it would be great if this became a feature so we didn't have to bother you for every single project. Here is a list of what we think should be included in this feature for showcasing each project:

• an image or GIF of the game
• title
• name of the developer (=owner of the itch.io page)
• genre
• possibility to write a short description
• and a hyperlink on the image/title to the owner's page that opens in a new tab

Thanks for your consideration! In case you need to get in contact with us or ask for more information, you can send us an email at label@colognegamelab.de.
