Log inHello all, I just wanted to give a public update regarding the current state of the project. There is some very bad news. Recently I’ve been effectively deplatformed and robbed as the paypal account that I have linked to the itch.io has been permanently deactivated (banned) and the funds have been frozen. It is unlikely that I will be able to recover those funds as paypal is notoriously known to steal the money after the recovery time period. Those funds were from the community’s lifetime purchases of the project on itch.io (~$10k+ USD) and meant for the continued funding and development of this game. This is a major blow for the project, my motivation to continue and my mental health/wellbeing. Those funds were meant for supporting me, assets, animations and tools moving forward. The project now effectively has no usable main storefront or funds at the moment (itch.io only supports paypal withdrawals) Most of the money I’ve ever earned from here is likely gone. I am not mentally in a great place right now and honestly am screwed. I regret my lack of foresight and curse myself for not being more diligent than to trust paypal with the money. I strongly advise everyone reading to avoid using paypal in the future as they can close accounts and seize your money with impunity under the guise of their acceptable use policy.
Moving forward SubscriberStar will be the main platform to access the game and its updates early, I will also be looking into alternatives like Cien, DLSite, etc. (or If anyone has other ideas please feel free to let me know in the comments) and keep you all updated. Unfortunately that also means updates will be less consistent and the future is uncertain. (I will still try to get v0.0.8 released soon) The current financial situation and current reality of every platform’s push to demonetize NSFW games has really disrupted everything about the future.
Thanks for understanding and apologies for the bad news.
I would be very grateful if anyone would feel like supporting me and the project through this nightmare situation, if so please consider subscribing here. Thanks.
