FYI please do not leave racism-adjacent comments on my game pages (like this example - saying a black girl with 3C/4A hair has "messy" hair and that her skin is "tan"). I welcome honest feedback (e.g. "Your artstyle is ugly" or "You draw curly hair poorly") but (cont.)

🤔 Have I been out of the loop, and has itch started delisting horror games without NSFW content? I noticed that my game Kanau was delisted recently, and it doesn't even have anything adult listed on the page (I mean, it's about children)... 🥲 chattercap.itch.io/kanau

Note that these extremely vague terms (which already prevent the discussion of sexual trauma), are NOT exhaustive. The TOS of payment processors themselves is even more broad/vaguely defined than this.

Ironic that this is all done to "protect women," but how many female-identifying creators are hurt by this "activism"? I am a woman. The exploration of sexuality and queerness in media is vitally important for everyone. Stop using feminism to push your puritan ideology.

After that, you'll want to rename the file to "icon.ico" and drop the file into your base directory. This is the folder ABOVE your regular "game" directory. Afterwards, make a new build of the game!

For context, a few months ago I released a short game called "The Perfect Woman," about an AI girlfriend who is trapped by her creator, who wants to mold her into the perfect spouse. Over the course of the game, she has to "survive" her circumstances.

💙 QRT with the piece you're proudest of for 2024! 🌹 One of my favorites was this one that I did of @butter-blanc.bsky.social 's characters, Brielle and Lukas! If you can guess the anime it's referencing, I'll give you a slice of digital pineapple pizza 🍍🍕

Two images layered one on top of the other, with text captions on the bottom of each image. The top image contains a pink-haired, dark-haired woman wearing armor, angrily telling the man on the bottom to accept her fate. The bottom image contains a silver-haired man wearing armor refusing to leave her to her fate.
