itch.io

it's kinda scummy they're still advertising it as coming with a steam key...

I'm willing to give them a second chance.

I can be angry at the people who drove itch to do something and I can be angry at itch for not standing up for their creators and not outlining their plans sooner. Believe me if they said they were de-indexing games until they could find another payment processor this thread would not have been made.

Even if they were... if people want to buy them and it's legal to do so and the platform selling it wants to sell it. What's even the problem lol?

Yeah it's fair to ban nsfw stuff from a workplace, not from a platform if the platform genuinely wants to sell it.

 Seeing a mod being on my side makes me feel a lot better about the situation. itch fucked up bad, but they are taking steps to resolve it.

Anyone replying to this recently needs to read the edits. itch.io has pretty much resolved the situation. I don't forgive them, but I'm willing to let it go.

Love seeing all of this after it got revealed that itch in fact could have switched payment processors at any time and chose not to until now.

They literally announced they're seeking out new payment providers, so this was always an option.

If people are mad about support for payment systems being removed because the payment providers are being homophobic. then fuck those people. They shouldn't be in our space anyways.

Yes. Unironically would be a much better response than just caving.

and clearly they didn't care enough to continue fighting since they caved. You're a game dev being affected by this. Stop defending them.

lmao no they didn't. they IMMEDIATELY caved.

The fact a most likely LGBT creator is defending itch.io's actions is disgusting, Imagine throwing the rest of the community under the bus.

No, it was itch.io choosing to bend the knee to Collective Shout. Stop fucking defending them.

You suck

EDIT: So many homophobes defending this saying "it's not itch.io's fault" fuck ya'll.

EDIT 2: Saw the new announcement. I'm glad they're actually seeking out a new payment provider, but them not even saying sorry is crazy. I'm willing to let this go if the situation genuinely gets resolved, but you still fucked up BAD itch.io.

kys

go fuck yourself

oh the website went down so I was assuming it died

wow that's shitty of them

This is the greatest vidya game of all time

"Why are Yuuutu physics default?"

that is literally NOT what you asked.

it literally does lol

someone made a program to make custom boards, custom minigames could happen, it just wouldn't be official.

not a death threat. it's just a generally good thing to hope evil people die. you people are what's wrong with the gaming industry. it's insane you people are getting this upset at me over not wanting to support a dev who scammed their fans. i'm gonna keep being a good person, and meanwhile you will likely have to answer for you evil ways. i will not be replying since it's clear you are all just trolling. do better.

He could refund people outside of the system (which he would be legally obligated to) but he's choosing not to. I'm tired of people defending bad behavior. It's happening way too fucking much and I'm sick of people letting others get away with evil. I hope you die.

Stating a true fact is apparently bait now.

it is a crime. you can't promise something in a purchase then not deliver and then also not refund.

promising something in exchange for a purchase and not giving a refund when you can't deliver is a crime.

it wasn't entirely their fault, but it did happen.

unfortunately they falsely advertised twice. they deserve the criticism in this case. it sucks that it isn't entirely their fault, but they still did wrong.

For context, Nacho offered refunds, then went back on it.

still false advertising. doesn't matter if it's THREE dollars. they still committed a CRIME. How are people defending this?

I'm complaining that they committed false advertising twice.

I get it's not the dev's fault. But they made promises they couldn't keep. That's on them completely, they scammed their community twice.

I'm more annoyed they promised a free steam key, which they couldn't deliver on. Then promised refunds, which they also couldn't deliver on. This is absolutely false advertising and they're just taking the money.

Dev made two promises they couldn't keep. Kinda sucks ngl.

EDIT: Imagine defending a literal crime. You are all what's wrong with the gaming industry.
