Hey all! Just a quick reminder for the itch crew: make sure your backup plan is in place! This message from IGS is really telling about how much can go wrong how quickly.
Yup, IGS changed hands and the new owners didn't know how to code. That's a huge red flag. It's good itch is still in its original hands. Still, it's a valued site for the community. Keep it safe please!
I think what happened to IGS is really unfortunate. The lack of communication was disappointing though, no one really knew what was going on for months. Hypothetically speaking, if there was an ever an issue with us we would be sure to communicate things immediately and give developers the opportunity to do anything if necessary. We have no plans to sell the site, and we plan to stay an independent company indefinitely. Thanks for using itch.io!
