First they came for the porn and i did nothing to stop them because i had no libido....

This cope aged faster than milk.

licking a smaller boot doesn't make you any less of a bootlicker.

don't forget leaf, it's his website, he had final say to fuck you over so i could keep selling my meme games with as little friction as possible.

When fuckheads try to dick you around you fight back, period.
In this scenario the best case option is they back down and fuck off. The worst case option is itchio fucks them off and uses other payment processors.... you're weighing the "pain" of users having to go and sign up to a different payment processor vs letting a third-party abuse their power to dick you around and decide your rules like they own the place.

"Itch is not the bad guy in this Situation." ...they're just carrying out orders....

the Nazi soldier defense, classic.

If itch doesn't want to fight for creators than their cut is 0% simple.

No legal organization can do anything to help if the effected parties just flop over and take it without a fight.

Level progression is not linear, it depends on the outcome.

SJWs demand i be paid for my work.

i didn't ask for it to be removed and no one from itch has told me it was removed so im not sure why it wouldn't be in there. i'll look into it.

it wasn't?

[FIXED] (probably)

Yeah this is definitely not a educational game unless you're trying to learn how to talk shit in bogan.

A reviewer, back when it was on Steam, allegedly was the parent of a child with autism who got it for them and was thanking me for the teaching material and i'm just |  ಠ  _◺ ಠ|

That is not the reason i took down my games from Steam. Steam is just a terrible service that i couldn't work with anymore.

Is there an error message?

'cause steam is the game distribution equivalent of a hoarder's trash heap home

Then we'll both be broke.

I think it would be useful to sellers and buyers if when someone  wants to buy something but not at the current asking price, they could register to be alerted of sales/pricedrops. Would also want them to register a price at which they would like to pay, that way sellers could be given data of how many potential buyers are waiting on a sale/pricedrop and at what pricepoints to help inform creation of sales or price adjustments.

I never got the use of ages. Of course there's legal ages for different things in different places at different thresholds (way too many to keep up with) and there's outright bans of things in some places. It seems to me it would be simpler to just have opt-ins for various types of content where the user has to confirm that the content is legal for them.... especially when there are so so many different types of content that is regulated around the world https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strafgesetzbuch_section_86a

"Tax included"
"Tax not included"

The current method will still be available I hope.
I for one don't think it's creators responsibility to take the hit for countries deciding to roll regressive taxation and doing so prevents people from being irritated with their government for doing such things which they absolutely should be.

this some Radical Artisnal-Capitalism. 👌

December 17 2017 - version 9

Because many of the changes in this update involve the procgen, this version has drastically different starting conditions and the saves of previous versions will no longer function. I'll be keeping around v8 for download for anyone who misses TK.

• Player is now appraised of trust changes post-election.
• Rush the Vote box color now represents who will win the vote.
• Rushing a losing bill to a vote will now clear all threats/promises you made that bill.
• Refined avatar generation to better represent the demographics of the State.
• Added new flavortext for Bill results (Republican Whip now comments on your wins too).
• Refined button texts to ease assessment of actions and prevent text overflow.
• Refined button colors to ease assessment of actions.
• Added new Bills that do cool things...
  • A one chance  (Bill 11) Puerto Rico statehood bill which changes the states in congress.
  • Anti/Pro-Lobbyist bills which decreases/increases lobby influence after enactment.
  • Electoral Fairness/Security bills which produces more/less reps who's views align with their state.
• Can no longer force the vote on budget bills.
• Budget Riders (on passed budgets) now effect election funding, where the differential between D and R riders is how much funding must be given away from the party with more Riders.
• Added Riders highlight buttons for Reps that are drafting riders and reps that created riders.
• Refined Republican Whip AI to abuse Pork when able and other useful moves while ahead in the count rather than doing nothing.
• Fixed bug where force vote button would stick around after use.
• Fixed bug where riders would cause opinion percentages to go outside of bounds.
• Fixed misgendered pronouns in text.
• Fixed bug where pork and concessions could not be used on the same rep over multiple bills.

"Ratings sell. "

I really doubt ratings have much of any effect on purchases. People generally know if they're interested in something the moment they see it, they're not combing through scores to decide what their opinion is.

Creators are always in need of promotion and critics/promoters are seemingly always in need of reliable revenue streams.
itchio could bridge that gap by allowing people to create storefronts (like collection pages) which adds a cut or tip on to the product's price for them. Conceptually identical to running an actual store. This should give promoters a reliable revenue stream (reliable in the sense of them actually knowing the causation of how and why they are getting money -- their fans buying games through their storefront -- rather than the nebulous causation of syndicated advertising) and incentivize them to a more symbiotic relationship with more creators than what other funding incentives.

The creator and promoter never need to interact for this to take place so it dodges any idea of conflict of interest.

As far as vectors for abuse of a system like this... creators having opt-in control should be more than enough. Maybe a limit to the amount of profit that can be made on top of an original price if you want to be extra diligent.

August 07 2017 - version 8

• Fixed bug which would cause game to hang if a caucus member (not the leader) resigned.

"Random" isn't exactly correct. It's "Procedural" meaning if you perform the same actions you will get the same results.
