Monster Girl Invasion RPG - Part 1
More Censorship - NSFW Games Delisted On Itch
Hello everyone,
I woke up this morning to see that all impressions for our games on itch had hit 0 and that no NSFW games can be seen on itch anymore.
It turns out Itch is currently being targeted the same way that steam was, by payment processors and a group of activists demanding the removal of adult games.
Itch has decided to delist and deindex ALL adult games regardless of content. So you can't see them on the store or search for them. They can now only be accessed directly via the link.
This was done without any warning.
Our Livelihood Is At Risk:
Please follow us on all alternative sites, in case something happens, or our games are removed. Please consider supporting us if you can, since our livelihood can be destroyed at any time from aggressive censorship like this.
Here's the statement from itch:
Update on NSFW content - itch.io
Once again this has been handled in a way that screws game developers over. Especially those who are having their livelihood stolen from them.
Please take a look at what has been going on and where possible, support your favourite game devs by fighting this censorship wherever possible.
Much love and much sadness,
MGGEDev

Corrupted Kingdom posted this petition to fight back
A Copy/Paste I feel is relevant:
"If you want to stick it to the payment processors, you should call your Congressmen and Senators and tell them to support H.R.987 (Fair Access to Banking Act) and the Senate version S401, which would prohibit them from doing this kind of thing. Already got a decent momentum and it not a partisan issue (even if one party has been personally effected by it a lot more) so it could pass if people push the remaining to supporting it."
"The Fair Access to Banking Act is proposed legislation aimed at preventing financial institutions from denying services to legally compliant individuals and businesses based on factors like political affiliation, religious beliefs, or belonging to a disfavored industry. It seeks to ensure fair access to financial services by requiring institutions to make decisions based on objective, risk-based criteria rather than subjective or discriminatory factors."
To anyone who already has bought it here, it's still available to download. Though that may not remain the case forever. So yeah, download what you can and follow on another platform (not steam, same shit there) I guess.
Not many options or platforms left right now and they are falling like dominoes...But yeah, this pretty much.
Download while you still can so you can at least play it in the meantime.
In some countries u can´t even acces Steam even or get to buy such games at all
