I'd 100% still release on itchio. Just sort of apprehensive of releasing something for money after doing free stuff for so long, I think.

Currently a little stumped on how to release this. Should I finally do a steam release? My biggest concern is exposure. People love free stuff and it lowers the barrier of entry to play it. Which is something that always works for my games? Completely thinking out loud here.

One of my favorite horror games. Everything Dan makes is worthwhile, but this one is really my favorite. A must-play game if you're into horror, especially alien abduction horror.

On Thy Knees passed 20k downloads today, which is pretty cool. In the meantime, I've started work on the next thing. Which will hopefully be a steam thing. Finally.
