  i don’t know if any source has caught up yet, but a few days ago it was indeed just taboo kink games that were being targeted, now it seems all of itch.ios NSFW games are disappearing

    I think all games being hit is a temporary measure while they get some sort of new process in place. We’ll see where things land.

    Either way, card processing companies shouldn’t be dictating what kind of art consumers can to consume, even if I don’t personally agree with the content of some of the worst offenders. If it’s not outright illegal, they can fuck off.

      You’re being too gracious. These companies could have given itch.io enough time to classify the games properly, but they didn’t.

        Oh for sure, fuck these companies. I’m just saying don’t take it out on Itch.io and their current scorched earth approach, their hands are tied.

    Direct link to the game because the creator restricted who can view their posts on Bsky. Only viewable via a link or from their profile now, searching the name only returns a bunch of other dress-up games, but not this one, presumably because of the „Transgender“ tag.

      Thanks for the context. Might have been caught up in the crossfire, but very worrying indeed.
