Congratz mate!
Now, you can add the tag "Aboned no more!"
Give me eight more months............
I gotta say, I like this dev. Specifically the part where he's saying (and I'm heavily paraphrasing): "If you're going to pirate my stuff, at least pirate the good stuff. I have standards to uphold." The words of a true artist.
From a business perspective it doesn't help me when buggy versions of the game get leaked. One thing that has become very clear to me over the last couple years is that 95% of these other pirate sites are stealing the links from F95. So to avoid a glitchy, shitty version of my game permeating the interwebs, it's important the right version get swiped here.
(That's also why the newest version of the game has hotlinks to F95 scattered through out so when it's found on all these other shit bag sites that are charging money for my stolen goods, they can at least find their way back here and get it for free instead of paying some ass hat profiting from my hard work.)
I'm a pragmatist when it comes to these things.
Besides, I've never had a version leak on F95 that didn't almost immediately result in an increase in patrons. Turns out, it's good advertising and when you're making a good product, people want to help you do it.
And there you go, now you have way more information that you wanted.
