Finding a new platform to post my future games
3 months ago
A year ago I made this journal.
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10934878/
I commented that I was looking for recommendations on which gaming platforms I should go to and sell my weird icky furry games there, but said that I had a few places in mind. Itch.io being one of them.
However https://www.gamespot.com/articles/i...../1100-6533423/
Oh and an indie dev posted this https://itch.io/blog/993654/itch-de.....-subscribestar
Well that seals the deal. I was already worried by the politics and culture of the site like I said in my initial journal, but now it's a definitive and resounding NO! I'm never gonna make an itch.io account.
Since making that journal I rediscovered a few platforms that could be a good fit. First there's Gumroad, Gumroad infamously hosts a gladiator game that got banned from steam because its creator is a mega MAGA weirdo who repeatedly stirred the pot. It is also home to the grotesque Steve mod that got banned from most other modding platforms for being too freaky. Finally there are many nsfw creators on there. This probably ain't a good place to be discovered, but it's far more trustworthy than Steam and Itch.io and it's not just for games you can sell other goods on it. Nutaku is a gaming platform, but it's explicitly for outright pornographic games, I'm not sure weird cartoon tropes (like inflation, force feeding, flattening, farting yada yada) count as porn given how these cartoon tropes also show up on tv shows for children. Finally there's weight gaming, but I don't plan on focusing on weight gain or fat characters in particular so uh awkward. Mediafire is still an option I reckon. Subscribe is a good optionif I wanted to use a subscription service, but one-time payments like on steam is what I really wanna do.
