Theo @ Upwards, Rain! releases July 1st!

(trembling) w-whos she?

OKUYASU MY BOY!!!!

holy shit that rules

REMINDER to read the post-game rain comic on my neocities if you like loser women

"clankers" is a terrible name for AI because it evokes a way more analog sound than what AI really is: fake and code and whatever. "clanker" should be for a COOL robot with a radio for a head!!!

I say periodically updating because I don't know about what sort of schedule will work, but I hope you'll keep an eye out! Each installment will be fairly short to keep them more frequent, and I'll make a bigger post each time a full chapter is done

After the events of the game, Mila finds herself tasked with a new adventure... and it all starts with a letter from above.

Upwards, Rain! The Scattered Letters of Vitae is our new, periodically updating comic! You can read it on my neocities!

Marked for review since May 2024?

oscillating between disappointed, heartbroken, genuinely confused, and furious. normal

honestly this makes me just want to make gayer and more explicit games

We dont know why it got caught in the shadow bans, but can only imagine it was due to participation on transgender-creator centric bundles... We disabled payments because of hearing issues with people initiating payouts when they're affected and don't want to risk that happening.

Perfect Circle: Stand Alone by 2nd draft! Millie thinks her mom must be dying.

In light of itchio de-listing Perfect Circle, we've made the assosciated bundle items free and disabled payments. (We encourage you to donate directly to your charity of choice anyway!)

things I would do if you're a nsfw/kink creative *now* because I've been eerily prescient about every single wave:

a) get a personal site with your own domain you own. *now*. not a carrd or third party squarespace. not next week. *now*. get it online with ugly-ass html but get your links there.

📢 ISO of Devs Affected by Itch 📢

If your game got:
• Deindexed
• Removed
• Payouts turned off

Especially if you make Adult &/or LGBTQ+ #IndieGame or #VisualNovel, I want to talk to you.

🗣️ Please reply below with how you were affected. This is for a #Journalism piece.

🔁 RTs Appreciated 🔁

JASTBlue offer is nice at least. more specialized storefronts might be a good move but that'd require multiple publishers (existing or new) to trust in indie games enough to invest in that LMAO

i don't know what the answer is here because it's not like we can expect people to start self-hosting their games AND expect people to somehow find them. it just really sucks.

the fact that the only real options for games are Steam and Itchio, both of which really hurt for different reasons (expensive + platform cut VS no visibility + unprofessional admin team), reeeaaaaally sucks

i truly hate it here and i'm so sorry for all the developers who have faced worse, like outright removal of games that can't be found anywhere else. please support them if you can

Chalk Lines by Theo NSFW, WLW story about a vampire and werewolf falling in love

itchio has shadowbanned it alongside a bunch of other games, so here's a reminder that i wrote an ⚠️18+⚠️ Twine game about a werewolf and a vampire sharing an apartment and having feelings!

i LIKE the wings on its head!!!!

mega dragonite may be in my top 5 pokemon. every single mega i've seen i've been like "ok. sure" but mega dragonite has me enraptured. i need it

thank you everyone for 2k plays and the very warm reception!!!! im so surprised by all the sweet comments and ratings, it means a lot to know this little story was worth making 💛

if upwards rain gets 50 reviews i will draw goldship driving mila and rain around on a segway

Valve just updated their Steam rules to ban content that “may violate rules set by payment processors or banks.” Sounds boring. It’s not. It’s the quiet normalization of financial censorship and it’s going to hurt LGBTQ+ games and devs

🏵️Your best friends are getting married, and you've been a terrible bridesmaid.

hi i made a tiny visual novel for #O2A2VNJam about being honest, with three endings about falling in love with the bride!! 👍
