The deletion of comments was seen by many, including myself, as an extremely hostile action and revoking of approval.

The revocation/deletion of approval and everything that followed only worsened this perspective on that matter.
Commenting as much as Hotpink did and submitting bad practice DMCA claims is bar none the worst thing Hotpink could have and did do.

I still believe Hotpinks actions where hostile and their actions afterwards being damage control as i have no reason to think otherwise.
Lying to me about revoking their approval and the DMCA claim being the biggest outliers.

Due to all of this:
I can not trust Hotpink and will not be buying Tentacle locker 2.
I am sorry to say but i will also not be buying Lovecraft Locker due to the now reduced focus and forced changes by Hotpink.

It was never made to be hostile, but when made public I can see why you think that. 

We never submitted a DMCA take down. That takes a lot of legal work, and never something we were planning on doing. I hope you don't see this as a lie, and we've only done our best to be transparent and keep things less confusing for people who have only seen part of things. 

There won't be any "forced changes" by us or anyone. With all your vigor and passion I hope you can at least support other lewd game creators!

Nice semantics. You didn't submit a "DMCA takedown," true - you submitted a copyright claim through Itch. Different mechanisms, same effect.

Also not a copyright claim claim! Just a report so we could get things down in writing. Was never made to be public. Semantics are important when you deal with things like this.

I will say this, a DMCA takedown does not require a lot of work, it's a simple 1 page form you fill out
