update: though its been 2 months at this point, if something changes and we get feedback from the itch team, we may return. but 2 months is a long time for no changes.
With all due respect, I come at an innapropriate timing, but I did not have you be left in the dark. If you noticed me "dissapearing" from your feed, just know that I still have it—just that I should not make it public with an account under THIS identity soon.
Itch does not have some of the age restriction features like Steam, so I did not want to get flamed for some crazier because Google compiled it alongside everything else under my name. If there is some way I can still share it, I could.
Also, sorry for what happened. The stress in my real life was never easier for me either, even on my birthday...
we were suprirsed by how viscious the original backlash for a simple harmless joke was. TBF though its not just mints hints, we've noticed that like, all the horror community 'not the devs but the active commenting folks' have become toxic AF on itch in the past two years. Zero idea how that happened, but we began noticing it with Dr.nose and the uh... wow the attacks they suffered. It would almost seem like the trolls are hanging out around horror games waiting to cause trouble.
The problem is that dr.nose is an sfw dev, and we are an nfsw dev. Itch doesn't like to help nfsw devs much
