Sorry, but for those who bought the game with PayPal, what is written in the purchase history? Are there references to the game or the creator? Or are there references to the itch.io platform? This is because I would like to keep it as secret as possible.

I'm pretty sure it's just Itch.io

Oh ok, I'm wondering because I've already purchased other games on itch.io and the name of the creator was written on the receipt. And i want to be 100% sure

Idk if you already purchased it, but if you use PayPal it does show itch.io and also a summary of the purchase showing what was purchased via the PayPal app and receipt. So no privacy via the PayPal app or website. However, the purchase only shows as Itch.io on the associated debit/credit account statement

Oh so if I buy it via PayPal in addition to itch.io on the app will also be my game name? Because as long as it's only itch.io it's not a problem. (For the receipt via email instead it's not a problem)

When I used PayPal to purchase the game, both the email and app showed both itch.io and the game name. As an added note, PayPal will only show itch.io on activity, but if someone other than yourself has access to your PayPal, they will be able to click on where it says Itch.io for more details, and it is there where they can see what you purchased on itch.io. So, I will consider making a different PayPal account to purchase if privacy is a concern.

Can you send a screenshot of what you see on PayPal? Sorry mate for annoying you but i really would like to try the full version of the game

Oh ok as I suspected, damn I have to find a way to create a second PayPal account even if I don't think it's possible. Thanks anyway for your availability, you were very kind!
