They made an announcement on their Steam event page, which goes into more detail as to why they did it this way.
Previously, we offered free Key applications to replace game versions for existing players. However, as of this month, the number of supplementary Keys distributed has exceeded 30% of the total sales volume prior to this initiative—and we still receive numerous feedbacks from players stating they haven’t received their Keys, along with complaints about slow email response times.

Actually, if you reach out to me via Matrix - @thatwhiterabbit:matrix.org
I can send you the steps and instructions (and links) there, if you’d like. There’s a few things to send, so it’d be clutter-y here as a reply!

UGH. That’s what I get for posting this here just after 5am.
I can’t edit titles, so…my mistake will haunt me forever more -____-

I’ll ask the dev, and let him know. I agree with you, I loathe Discord (I only re-joined recently in order to reach out to and interview devs), but from what I know so far things are quite early in the app’s world.
I’ll let him know you’re looking to try, and send him a link to your comment here :)

Me too! So much!
I’d finished that article like a month or so back, but kept holding off on posting because Kyle was waiting for the artist to send the key art back, I wasnt sure what to expect…but now I see it all, I am so glad!
He’s adorable! And the color choices are beautiful, too. Turquoise (seafoam green?) is perfection with ‘Issho’

Amazing to see for a turn-based game, an original I.P. and and independent company!
- Comment on An artist's compilation: 'what if all characters in RDR2 were animals?' 1 week ago:
I do hope it eventuates, but…I’ve seen enough ‘credible’ leaks that its right around the corner to last me a lifetime
I hope it arrives for you, because RDR2 is a beautiful game, in its own slow way. Well worth replaying!
I’d love to replay, but I spent so many hours in it. Much like Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk, I think I can’t actually play any more of it because I played so much already

I’m a sucker for a slip-case, though. And this one looks really nice!

Thanks, Agent Karyo!

To me if it’s a new release of a game…of course it should be shared! The first person to post it (preferably with their own views on the game coming written underneath) keeps the community up-to-date with what games look like. Trailer ‘dumping’ really only happens when there’s a big event, and the point of that event is seeing trailers for games. It makes sense to have them shared here.
But posts sharing the same trailer after that first? Removed.
I don’t think of it as ad spam, because it’s not like Rockstar is making a Lemmy account to make sure we see the GTA VI trailer. If we denied trailers being posted, there’d be some very angry Silksong people when that one got the trailer!

Yes!
Okay so before 2 or so months back, I worked as a pen-tester (red team), so when I wasn’t breaking in to facilities, or convincing security guards that I was the CEO’s daughter or a worker who forgot their pass, I was typically on my desktop. Which left me some time to spend contributing to spaces like this community on Lemmy!
Since then though I had a bit of a health hiccup, and took time off. I’m still taking time off, and while I’m being as active as I can, I’m now with quite a bit of time to spend doing things like this, or writing the odd feat. article/interview and sharing it on my friend’s site - so maybe I’m lucky, in one regard?!
Right now I’m playing Red Dead on my Switch OLED, and Deus Ex Mankind Divided on my Steam Deck :)

- Comment on Favorite Modded Console? 1 week ago:
I see the OG Switch can be modded and looking into that, seems like you can actually push it to do 60 FPS instead of the 30 it’s locked into when you buy one if you overclock it.
You can! That’s the sys-clk! And it makes playing ToTK far less stuttery than it is without this!
You can do all kinds of things, but my fav has to be the ability to run your own themes on the Switch. I’m not sure why Nintendo refused to allow themes on the Switch, but themezer lets you customize it to your heart’s content:
The OG can be softmodded, you just need to use a RCM ‘jig’ in the right-hand Joy-Con rail to trick the system into booting into recovery mode, and then you can inject the payload. It’s dead simple, but it can get tiring - having the do the same process each time you shut the console down. Some users try using folded foil or a paperclip (all you’re doing is ‘shorting’, so it works), but I’d recommend the dead-cheap dedicated jigs people make before trying that one:
You can also install Linux (not so great) or Android on a partition for emulation, you can back your saves up, play with cheats, and so on.
Every single gen 1 Switch can be chipped however, my OLED is by far my fav chipped console. I did it myself (but to do it you need to be VERY proficient in micro-soldering), with the ‘kamikaze’ method, using the Picofly. This means it never loses the exploit, and it can be shut down and rebooted without losing the ability to boot into both the stock side (regular non jailbreak side - for online games) or the jailbroken side, where you can be as hacky as you want (as long as you remember to block Nintendo’s servers from being able to see you!)
People take the scene to great lengths, they customize everything and it can end up being an artform. I love my modded OLED, but I’ve also jailbroken V1’s, and chipped the V2 and Lite. I love seeing what some people end up making:
It’s well worth looking into! If you’re after a cheap V1 to do it the cheapest way you can, look at Buyee. They’re everywhere in Japan and so reasonably priced!

That’s very kind of you!
I haven’t been sharing so much of these articles or interviews I’ve been doing here lately, mostly I think because it makes me look like I’m inundating the place.
But that’s so kind of you to say, glad you enjoyed it!

It made me so happy to see a post from you again as I’ve missed seeing you around.
Thanks, Coelacanth! It’s nice to be back here :)

What an odd take to have.
I’m a little confused why you’d form a strong opinion on something you willfully refused to read. In fact, even my title for the article kinda gives it away. Or the screenshot.
Just…odd.
- Comment on CrankBoy - the original Game Boy game emulator for the Playdate console (my article) 3 weeks ago:
There is a actual dedicated Playdate fishing game, yes:
But in relation to my article, and their work on CrankBoy…you can watch how they added the crank to the fishing part of the original Link’s Awakening fishing section. This kind of thing is why I think Sodium and Stonerl are doing amazing work, because it’s so different!
Link to the crank being used for fishing in Link’s Awakening here!

Damn. That’s what I get for staying up all night, isn’t it.
Fixed, and thank you so much!
