You just explained to me the problem with what could happen, then you explained why we so badly need to push back.  This is the problem with fascism, give them an inch and they'll take a mile.  Kowtowing to them only teaches them they can do it more.  Enough will never be enough.  They want to impost their Christo-fascism upon everyone, or simply murder everyone.  They want you either having zero orgasms, or dead so you can't have any.  They are spreading violence and hatred, and "LGBTQIA+" individuals and groups are only the first.  They will forever shrink their in-group whenever it suites them to gain more and more power.  Because at the heart of fascism is hatred and unlimited greed for power and wealth, and using violence to obtain it.

So what's the solution?  Laws.  Governments creating laws which protect everyone from harm, and maximize everyone's freedom.  What's the immediate solution until we can have democratic and loving governments after we overthrow the fascist hateful ones?  Put all the pressure we can on all institutions to stop them from giving into fascism, however possible.  If that means not being able to use VISA cards, and moving to some other payment system?  So be it.  It's do or die.  It's stand up to Nazis, or let them win, and the latter is NOT an option!  Anyone with morals must understand this, because otherwise we let them goose step all over our freedoms and our lives.

The "compliance measures" is censorship, that IS the problem being raised here.  They are kowtowing to fascism, and attacking LGBTQIA+ content, and sexuality generally.  This is an evil move in response to an evil move.  To fight fascism, you never concede to their demands.  Concession will never appease fascists, only teach them they can get away with their violence and hatred.  They will then try more violence and hatred.  It will never stop until everyone who isn't inside their politically advantageous in-group at the time is dead.

itch.io, Steam, and other stores have capitulated to fascists, and everyone around the world should be outraged!

Free speech, sexual freedom, and justice for sexual minorities have been under attack by Christo-fascists and other hate groups.  If you think their hatred will end there, you don't understand fascism or evil.  Fascists will never stop shrinking the in-group until they're defeated, and if that means another WWII, then we must fight.

But rather than holding the line, defending institutions, and holding strongly onto their moral compass, some groups like itch.io are choosing to bend the knee.  It's extremely sad and angering seeing Leaf Corcoran capitulate to this evil rather than telling the payment processors to go F#@! themselves, halting all payments to these fascist boot lickers, and going to alternative processors and forms of payment until the processors stop their boot licking.

Everyone needs to call and email VISA (askvisa@visa.com) and other processors to tell them how outraged you are!

It's time we close our itch.io accounts unless itch.io reverses direction very soon! :(

You can't share as much love with anyone else as you do with James, and the only yiffing scene is with him.  The story is mostly linear.  Great story, though!

SPOILERS, kind of.

I was concerned too, Yeen, but the game makes the good ending obvious enough, and with using your moral compass too, you should be able to save everyone easily enough.  Even if you did make the wrong choice, you can save and reload or backtrack easily enough.  Even if you did accidentally make the wrong choice, there's no overly mean violent content or anything like that, it will just be made pretty clear that you didn't choose the proper choice to get the real ending.

So don't worry, just save your game when you encounter a choice you're unsure of, or if you really don't want to be bothered look up a walkthrough, and you'll see the proper full game and ending.  Highly recommend this game for many reasons.  One of which is showing the horrors of fascism, hate, and late-stage capitalism in our time.  But it's also very emotional and loving.  It's really good.  See my review.

Software which makes it so you can't play your games.  An example would be software requiring that you authenticate to someone else's server before you can play your game, or requiring that  you're online before you can play your game.  Any such restrictions are anti-you, and if those services ever fail, or if you want to simply play your game without doing what they say, you can't, which means you don't actually own your own game.

Looks like Deckerwolf already replied, but feel free to reply to me again if you still need help! ^n.n^

Really only one, though, as the other is bad and makes that very apparent by being a bad/sad as well as short and just obviously the wrong choice and wrong ending lol.   So really there is only one "true" ending, and it's pretty obvious when you reach this choice, but you should save it to make sure you choose the true one although the game does let you backtrack through the history to some degree.

This is a really wonderful game and story though and you should play it, at least try the demo!  See my review below.

That would be nice! <3

Are you on the fence wondering if it might not be a very deep, emotional, or adventurous game?  Boy would you be wrong!  Try the demo and you'll soon be learning what I did, that this is a wonderful beautiful game in so many ways, and everyone should play it!

It's set in a dystopian world...until you realize that our world is just as dystopian, and it's actually just our world, plus more tech, plus us furries having the bodies that we should have.

The game perfectly showcases our struggles against fascism, corporations, capitalism, and the abuse and horrors that those inflict.  It also touches on important related topics like automation and artificial intelligence.

Furries like myself will of course love seeing furries in games and movies, so that's certainly a huge plus for us, but you definitely don't have to be a furry to enjoy this game, i.e. there's more than just furry eye candy including yiff.   The story telling is wonderful and the topics are extremely relevant to today's struggles and hits you right in the feels.

It includes the option to enjoy yiff as part of the love, which everyone should do, because sex is a normal good part of love and of life!  But if you really aren't interested in seeing loving gay yiff, you can play the lesser version without it!

Getting the true good ending isn't too difficult, although I did have to save it in one place where I really wasn't sure which choice would give me the true good ending, and did have to reload one time to find out which would give the best/true ending.  It'll be obvious as to which decision this is so you can do the same thing, so don't worry, you'll figure it out!

Highly recommended, 11/10, made me laugh, made me cry, made me think, made me cum, and made me want more!  Also thank you Deckerwolf for the Linux support, it runs flawlessly!

Go Super Taco Crew! <3

In the title menu for this demo, everything works as it should.  I have a mouse pointer and hear music and sfx.  When I click "begin", however, I'm just presented with a black screen.  No mouse pointer or music.  I can hit ESC and get the settings menu, but I still get no visual mouse pointer which makes selecting the options in the settings menu difficult.  I do get sfx from the buttons in the settings menu.  I tried changing some video options, but nothing helped, the main game screen just stays black.  Perhaps there is a cut scene that is supposed to be loading but isn't?  Using Linux Mint 20.

The ~/.config/unity3d/Editor/Player.log shows the following when I click "Begin":

(Filename: ./Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 48)
The referenced script (DataCatcher) on this Behaviour is missing!
(Filename: ./Runtime/Scripting/ManagedReference/SerializableManagedRef.cpp Line: 197)
The referenced script on this Behaviour (Game Object 'DataCatcher') is missing!
(Filename: ./Runtime/Mono/ManagedMonoBehaviourRef.cpp Line: 333)

After several more lines (without errors that I can see) it just starts spamming these two over and over:
Preparing Video
(Filename: ./Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 48)

Seems like it might be a neat game, though!  Thanks!

Extract it, make the "Game" file executable, and run it.  Or just launch it from the itch.io client.

Not sure why so many archives are bundled without making the main game program file executable so you don't have to do that step, but some including this one don't.

Wait, so this is going to be releasing here once finished or something?  No Early Access/alpha/beta version here on itch.io?

Any info about when to expect the full Littlewood game on itch.io??  Would LOVE to support DRM-free Littlewood!

That's the only option for now, yes.  Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!  Perhaps that's an option that will come in the future.

Hi leafo!

The problem is that the gift checkbox option is there in the "Buy Now" dialogue box for games, but does not exist in the "Download Now" dialogue box for games.

An example would be Kentucky Route Zero which I already have in my library.  If I click on the "Buy Now" button for that game, I see the gift checkbox option near the payment type.  For Mindustry's "Download Now" button, however, there is no gift checkbox there.

Thanks for the help!

This did NOT work for me.  No where on the "purchase" page for Mindustry were any options to send/gift it to someone else.

Now I simply have a notice at the top of the Mindustry page that I have purchased the game twice, and no way to gift it to anyone else.

This isn't working for me for the game Mindustry: https://anuke.itch.io/mindustry

The game is already in my library, and I want to gift it to others, but there is no "Give this game as a gift" option for me.

Anyone else having this problem?

I'm not able to send this game as a gift to anyone.  There is no "give this game as a gift" option for me when I go to the donation page (it's already in my library).  In other words, this seems to not be true or doable for me: https://itch.io/updates/you-can-now-purchase-games-as-gifts-on-itchio

Anyone else having the same problem?

You might be right.  I haven't tried comparing the web download link contents between this and other games to find out.

Really?  Damn.  Hope itch.io adopts a better one soon then!

Did you get the Linux demo through a website or the itch.io client?  For some reason the client method isn't working for me while it works fine for other games such as https://oxopotion.itch.io/flip-book  Also yay for public sex!

I'm not able to download the game for Linux with the itch.io client even though the download for Linux on the website is there and I can get it through a web browser.  When I click the download button in the itch.io client however, the "install" field is empty, and when I click on it, the dropdown is just an empty blank bar.  When I click install, it says there are no compatible uploads to choose from.  Sounds like the versions might not be tagged correctly as being for the different platforms?  Other game demos work just fine and show the "install" box populated, like https://oxopotion.itch.io/flip-book for example.

Regardless, would love to see the full game here on itch.io too!

itch.io is the best!  Meets basically all of my wants: DRM-free, open source client that isn't required (unlike GOG's client, that also isn't available on Linux), and I assume there's a refund system although I haven't looked into how good it is in comparison to Steam/GOG.

Snap is centralized, as in Canonical has control over all apps that want to become snap packages?  If so, that's not a real standard, and should definitely not be considered for use!  You definitely should not need to ask Canonical for permission to package and distribute your own application on your own or any other website.

Just wanted to point out that the debs are gone, replaced by a simple binary installer that's click-to-run simple.  This is a better cross-distro solution than debs/rpms/etc!

If the client has self-updating features in it, then you don't really need to have this be run in other ways.  At this point, the only missing features are sandboxing of the installer itself, and having a nicer way to uninstall it via the system's uninstaller.  This could all be accomplished with flatpak if flatpak even sandboxed things by default.  At least on Linux Mint, flatpak sandboxing isn't enabled by default, or at least it's not very restrictive if it is!

Flatpak, Snap, and AppImage are three great ways to deploy to all Linux distros, so you don't have to release DEBs and RPMs and others, but instead only a single one for all. Each of these have things going for them, although I'd tend to lean towards Flatpak or AppImage. I think they all support automatic updates (like repositories) and many other features.
