NSFW "category" on itchio

I see that there is a "nsfw" game category that is NOT a tag. It appears occasionally in the itch referral dashboard.

https://itch.io/games/nsfw

I have 2 question :

how do games get put in this category? Does it happen where the "mature content" box is ticked in the project's metadata?
how do itchio users reach this page? I don't think I've seen any link to it while browing games.

Does anyone know?

You can write the "nsfw" tag manually and it will be recognized, it's just that it doesn't suggest it when you start writing it

I'm wondering about the NSFW "category" on itchio, which seems to show all adult-rated games: https://itch.io/games/nsfw

This is different from the NSFW tag, which only shows games with the "NSFW" tag: https://itch.io/games/tag-nsfw

Ah ok, sorry for this misunderstanding (I am French),

I don't know, I noticed however that I was labeled as NSFW because I was making adult games

I just realized this, so it must be something that is automatically attributed when you signal that you produce adult content

Hé je suis français aussi ! :D

I think that profile settings just means "since you're an adult game dev there's no point other adult games for you", which applies to games your account sees and not how user see you own games.
