Sorry to read Melody was rejected, I can't remember anything in the game that would be a good reason. I really liked that game, will try this and DmD too.MrDots tried whatever he could - be assured. That's when he has been told that if he further tries to get Melody on STEAM, he will be banned at all. Afterall it's not worth the effort to remake old games, we just have to be sure that the next game(s) will be according to the rules (At least until they are listed)
It depends on what it is. You might be asked to resubmit because your store panels aren't setup correctly, for example. But they are pretty strict on content such as underage, rape, etc.Do they always say you can't resubmit?
The dev of one of my favourite sharing games said he submitted his game to steam multiple times before they accepted it.
well she looks older than for example sophie from melody but yea steam had dblstandards.Steam is strange, I guess you have to be lucky but there are a couple of games with very young looking girls and they are on Steam. For example, the redhead girl from my signature is very young looking and the game is on Steam.
1 other dev with high school/collegegirls had to change his game and make girls older even patreon saw game as ok and other was similar except it was now adult woman's flashback story (skippable) how she graduated from college/high school .we know.
Even more strange, once you get a rejection, you aren't even allowed to apply changes and re-try again. They made it clear, that once a game is rejected, it's rejected once and for all. We also were warned, that if we try to re-upload Melody again (even if changed), MrDots will be blacklisted permanently.
The most annoying part is, that they didn't even tell what EXACTLY (which girl) is supposed to be "off terms".
ANd finally on top of all that shit, we aren't allowed and/or able to contact staff of Steam to ask/discuss questions about the detailed reason for rejection.
They just act like a bunch of a-holes![]()
well 1 game got semi-ban from patreon due sleepsex aka repe and 1 near rape (or actual rape depending choice but 1 other game didn't even having sleepsex (alhough to get that point had to be in relationship with girls)It depends on what it is. You might be asked to resubmit because your store panels aren't setup correctly, for example. But they are pretty strict on content such as underage, rape, etc.
Well - even for the story and our characters backgrounds, we need them to be adult. Our next games story will not work with minors anyways, so i guess we don't run into any issues like thatso to be safe chars needs to look like 20 years old so steam doesn't ban game.
steam will find something.Well - even for the story and our characters backgrounds, we need them to be adult. Our next games story will not work with minors anyways, so i guess we don't run into any issues like that
something like that, both allow some things and then later change their minds.Patreon is pretty extreme. Guess comparing Patreon and Steam is like comparing Saudi Arabia and Iran?
Any dev that still uses Patreon deserves everything coming to them... they should have switched platform long ago...since patreon is once again on crusade against incest (even if it's fan made patch) i wonder what that means to dots-team.
true but patreon has better visibility than subs.Any dev that still uses Patreon deserves everything coming to them... they should have switched platform long ago...
Doesn't matter... the idiots here don't read the OP anyway... and I doubt that most devs get discovered on Patreon directly.true but patreon has better visibility than subs.
Depends on what you mean.Does Subscribestar take normal kinds of payment?
Like regular credit card or paypal not that shit that should be illegal (bitcoin.)Depends on what you mean.
Credit card is no problem at all. Paypal probs too. No idea about crypto... never used that shit.Like regular credit card or paypal not that shit that should be illegal (bitcoin.)
Myst, and Petal Among Thorns, were banned for the same reason, and the girls don't really look underage to me at all. Luck of the draw which Steam Moderator gets to review the game, as "looking underage'" is pretty damn subjective.The weirdest randomness in Steam. Who you get evaluating makes a world of difference I guess

How TF is Mel the only one of those 3 rejected
Steam is super dumb sometimes
