STEAM-Integration Custom-Setup Request

Hi / Dear itch.io Community Staff:

I have sent an e-mail to your suppor@itch.io communication line.  

 But since there has been no reply yet - up to this time (and after waiting for more or less 3 days) I decided   to communicate again - since a follow-up may be necessary - in this particular case.

 I already sent a Second E-mail (which is an edited version of the First One) as a Follow-Up E-mail (a while ago).

 But - just to make sure - I thought of communicating    via this public communication line too. 

 In essence, My request is a  Setup [Enabling] for my game - which has to do with configuring my project's  game page - to be a Steam Keys-Only Sales & Delivery System (since it's a game that will work best as a STEAM- Integrated Game - both technically and design-wise). 

 I have read that such a request is allowable - when STEAM Integration - is key to a developer's game management. 

 In any case, Thank You - in Advance - for your usual consideration and understanding. 

 Also, I understand that things can get busy - but I hope this communication helps.

 Note: The Latest Ticket Number For My Particular Request is 76209.  

please why not just upload the game here, even if you make it DRM it will still get stolen in steam. why allow Valve a company who does nothing for you and no they do not promote your game, why allow yourself to only one store. we will not be responsible for such actions Valve will take in the future, we can not  guarantee your game in steam will be in steam.

the only thing i can say for sure about itch.io is that they will not banned you, you have more chances to earn more here than 30%,  actual people not scammers who ask for reviews. If anything consider another platform than just one because if steam is gone, than what will people think of your game after they already brought it.

Hi /Dear Itch.io Admin/Community Staff: 

  I understand that things can get busy - but this is just a Follow-Up Communication. 

( This is -  just in case - it got overlooked for some reason ).

  STEAM-Integration is key to my game's design and technical future updates 

..and it is actually    the best way it can be experienced. 

  I read that a technical requirement - for a STEAM-Key Only Sales & Delivery System - is  a Game Page.

  In view of that, the Official  Store    Page  of   SECRETSOF®'s First Game - in itch.io     -   already exists .

  This is  to make my  request easier to implement - when the Official Support Team handles it. 

  Again, Thank You - in Advance - for your usual consideration and understanding.

  Note: I have already sent  two e-mails to the support@itch.io communication line. 

                                    My Support Request started (was first communicated) last Thursday (February 18,2021).

Steam does nothing for you in terms of updates, what you asking is called a launcher, something itch.io already has in place. If you are willing to learn, you can update your game in just 1 day rather than Steam reviewing process of days or weeks of time.

  Hi /Dear itch.io Admin Staff/ Community Staff: 

  To avoid confusion (and  for a more precise communication), I am     requesting "the same system" 
  that has already been implemented by other itch.io publishers and is actually allowed - within reason.

  For a more logical presentation , here are examples of itch.io publishers who have done it:

  https://plug-in-digital.itch.io/ghost-of-a-tale 

  https://pixel-game-maker-mv.itch.io/pixel-game-maker-mv

  My request is simply Enabling The Delivery of PDF Files which contain STEAM Keys. 

   Each Game Page above - Sells STEAM KEYS ONLY through a PDF File.

   SECRETSOF® 's    First   Game - in itch.io -    is already a STEAM-Integrated Game

I am merely requesting the same thing - done by the above   publishers. 

   To my knowledge, this is something that has to be requested (and is officially allowed).
   
   https://itch.io/t/169922/is-it-appropriate-to-sell-just-a-steam-key-with-no-down...

   It has nothing to do with launchers, reviews or update speed (far from it)

   In any case,  I appreciate all the helpful contributions to this post.
