Hi! Just a quick suggestion, you said that you get only about 70% of your revenue on Steam, so why not decrease the price in Itch to about 90% so that people will prefer to buy from itch, cuz of the low price than steam. And if they buy from Itch, you'll get 90% of the revenue on itch, 70% on steam, but people will prefer Itch.

Just an example calculation of mine :

$7 From Steam BTP will get $4.9 (70%)
$6 From Itch BTP will get $6 (100%)

Keep in mind he doesn't get 100% of the revenue on itch.io, I think it's closer to about 90-95%.

Oh, ohk, but still, he'll have an advantage right?

Let's not undercut hard working developers. What difference does it make to you if the price is the same and the developers gets a little more?

Well I made this suggestion hoping that BTP will get more revenue, i just wanted to support him, I really respect his work he did on this game, so yeah. (And btw i don't understand what you meant in your second sentence)

If I recall correctly, I believe part of the Steam agreement miiight be that you can't price the game any lower on other platforms.
