Really sorry if you have been asked this like 100 times, but I was wondering if you ever have any plan to release LSH or HTA and future games on Steam (even if not until there 1.0). I remember seeing you say something along those lines for LSH buried somewhere in these threads and hoped you would as it would be nice to have them on there for multiple convenient reasons, plus you would reach a wider audience thus receive more support (I believe so anyway). I you're not, that's alright. I just wanted to know if I should wait for them there or buy them here. Keep up the beautiful work and don't burn yourself out.
Steam has a large monopoly and getting into it requires reviews from strangers. The Steam review team has a strong bias against anime-style hentai games, many Japanese hgames were permanently denied access in Steam as the result. It takes luck mostly for anime-style hgame to get into Steam.
My best advice so far is switching to Itch app when playing this game. The chances for a anime-style hgame of getting into Steam is rather low, due to strong bias against Japanese culture among the review team.
Which three publishers?
You mean like Kagura? That's grey area business operation.
They take out the hentai element out of the game, then publish the game as non-hentai game on Steam.
Players then download the hentai version dlc from Kagura website.
Of course, Kagura take commissions from providing service like that.
It's very shady because Steam gives a blind eye when there are publishers doing this. Then bans indies for doing this without publisher.
