Paid version cancelled due to itch.io policy changes


Rather sad news today. itch.io has effectively ended the sale of adult games on their platform.

The past few weeks, an email has been sent informing adult content creators that they can only sell their games on itch.io by enabling "direct payments", instead of bulk payments through itch.io, from now on. They did so without prior warning and with only a 30-day period for developers to cease payments or switching to direct payments. As all major payment processors available on itch.io (Paypal, Stripe) have clauses preventing the sale of adult content, this is not a viable option and will only result in getting my merchant account banned.

This is the wording used by itch.io in their email:
This decision was made after considering various factors related to your account, including nature of content, risk, disputes, and the resources required by our team to review payments associated with your account.

Payments are now disabled here and only the free version of the game should be available. I've delisted the paid versions of the game and I do hope the game can still be downloaded by anyone who've purchased it in the past. Updates for the paid version of the game will be available on Steam, Patreon and SubscribeStar. I will of course continue to update the free version of the game as before. If you have any questions just let me know in the comments below and I'll try to answer them to the best of my abilities.

Is it possible to receive a Steam Key, due to having purchased this here on Itch before that version got removed.

Sure, could you send me an email at perverteergames@gmail.com with your proof of purchase or the account with which you bought the game?

Could you send me an email with your proof of purchase at perverteergames@gmail.com?

downloaded to iPhone now I can’t figure out how to open it ..keep getting an error message when unzipped …Help me out

Unfortunately there's no version of the game that supports iOS.

is the apple version download for tablets??

There's only a version for macOS. Both iPhone and iPad run iOS, which means the app needs to be delivered through the app store which doesn't allow porn.

Is there any way that the full game will be available on Android? I bought it off of steam before realizing that it wasn't available for Android. I really enjoy playing and will gladly buy it again if it come to Android.

The game is available for Android on Patreon and SubscribeStar at the moment. If you mail me your proof of purchase on Steam to perverteergames@gmail.com I can deliver a direct download link for the Android version.

Hi! I paid for the version with the extra scenes a little while ago back when I had my old PC, and now it seems that I can't access it anymore due to this whole thing. Is there anything that can be done? Thanks in advance!

Could you send me an email at perverteergames@gmail.com, I might be able to help you further there.

se que hay hispano hablantes aqui asi que les dire una cosa, un juego muy bueno fuera de que es mucho sexo la historia es buena e interesante

https://steamah.com/sisterly-lust-full-walkthrough-all-30-days/

ese es un link para una guia por si quieren si o si ir por la ruta del harem completo, con todas las chicas, aunque al final de la historia algunas simplemente desaparecen pero no son tan importantes ellas las principales que se casan contigo si asi que suerte y que les vaya bien

OMG. This is one of my top games. I bought the bonus version and I regularly reinstall it and play through again. I don't want to buy a Steam version as it will be trapped in that platform. Is there some way I can get and keep/archive a standalone copy of the bonus version?

(+4)

Sadly, there no other platform where the game can be bought. If you send me an email (perverteergames@gmail.com) I can provide you with a direct download link, though that link will likely vanish at some point when a new version is released.

(+3)

New version! I thought the game was final, long ago.

(+4)

New version as in bug fix releases. ;)

(+1)

Same here.. That sucks. Really sad news.

Hi!

I've played the free game and enjoyed it enough to want to pay something for it. I'd also like to get the bonus content but refuse to deal with either Steam or Patreon—don't like the way they do business—so I wonder if there's some other way to get (and pay) for it.

Can't you do what other adult content creators have done, i.e. set up a "Name your own price" pay window that supports PayPal or credit card purchases?

In any case, thanks for several hours' worth of fun!

Cheers,

Blind Owl

Hi there, The other support option would SubscribeStar, I have a profile there: https://subscribestar.adult/perverteer

Paypal and other credit card processors forbid direct payments for adult content, so setting up a donation-type thing would be a little too risky I'm afraid.

(+3)

Done, thanks!

I signed up as a super fan, though that may be a slight exaggeration ;-). We'll see.

But what a lot of hoops to jump through, including the MEGA account thingy. Living on one of BC's Southern Gulf Islands, as I do, means that the Internet is dog slow. Downloading the extra content now...

Best,

Blind Owl

Thanks a lot! And yeah, there are quite a lot of hoops to jump through. Finding good mirrors to host the files is a little tricky.

What is the difference between the version of Sisterly Lust on itch.io now and the one I can get from Patreon? On Patreon it says it's the 1.1.4 while on itch.io it's called 1.1.6. Do the contents differ?

Thank you for the answer.

(+2)

v1.1.6 is also available on Patreon. The downloads post was out of date, but I've just updated the links. The main difference between the version here is that it's uncensored, whereas the Patreon version is. It can be patched though, using a third-party patch.

(+3)

I have this on steam so its all good, I can only hope that there is a way for not only you but other creators to still sell there work. If you find another location other than steam please share so people will not miss out on this great game.

(+3)

I sure will! Things are looking a bit dire in that regard though. First GameJolt and now itch.io, I don't think there are many other platforms left. :(

so i did the paid thing for this. is the paid version 1.1.6 or is it just the free one? the only one that i can download is the v.1.1.6. if its not the one for the paid version then how do i get or redownload what was paid for? is there a steam key sent to our emails?

(+1)

Could you send me a message at perverteergames@gmail.com? I'll probably be able to help you further.

Edit: Yeah, Literally every Developer at least in this Adult category.  So what are our options for getting more updates for the game? I know there is Patreon, but anything else?
Damn, I wonder if they're doing this to all Content creators?

(+1)

There's Patreon, SubscribeStar, Steam and my personal website (https://perverteer.com), other than that there are no marketplaces welcoming adult content the way itch.io once did.

(+1)

Okay, I believe the last time I bought it was from your website.

just letting you know i got it in a bundle while back, i went to check and i can't download the paid version 

(+3)

This is hands-down one of my favorite avn i thought it was done

(+3)

Oh no - so does that mean that we can't accept itch payment anymore?

(+3)(-1)

This sucks. Not for us, the players. But for the great developers like yourself. I really loved the bussiness model that was here, and now sadly. It is gone.
I already owned TTUV on steam, but not SL.. And ofc, i bought it straight away.. Not even fully so i owned the full edition again, but also to support you where i can.

Speaking of Steam, (and i know this doesnt work for everyone..sadly) maybe you can go fully to steam and patreon? I play Come Home there, another AVN, wich is Free to play, but she also uploaded a Premium Edition wich will get the patch earlier then the F2Players..It is basicly the model you have here..

I dunno.. I wish you best of luck..and i keep playing the games, as long as i can.. and i try to support you with the budget i have.

This suck. Period

(+7)

Thanks for the support!

Looks like Steam and Patreon are the only viable alternatives at the moment, so I'll commit to those platforms and only update the free version here.

I currently have the full version purchased and installed through itch, but will there potentially be any updates to SL in the future? Is it possible to gain access to the full version on Steam instead? I'd rather not have to re-purchase it, even if I know it would support you.

Setting the game to not accept payments anymore unfortunately also disabled the downloads and any possibility to download any future updated builds. Could you email me at perverteergames@gmail.com? I'll probably be able to help you further.

(+9)

sorry, you and many others don't deserve to be cheated like this

(+8)(-2)

this sounds like the onlyfans "ban adult content on site" debacle all over again.
all i can say, is they should expect to now go broke.
the non-adult stuff on this site just isnt worth supporting, its all childish crap that can be gotten for free elsewhere

(+17)(-1)

I can only hope Itch will learn to regret this decision... I too had never heard of Itch without their adult content!
