What a wonderful corner of the internet that is. Like a glimpse of utopia! I'm well familiar with the pay what you want scheme, but I forgot about the revenue slider. When I put my own games on there, I think I'm gonna set it to 31%.
As the artist of freelancer and on behalf of the team , thank you for this video. It is a great honor to be one of the examples you've chosen to show.
I wouldn't be half the game developer I am without Itch's open platform. This was a well done origin documentary, you have most assuredly earned a sub.
I still think bundle for Ukraine would have been cooler if it went towards arming their military. What are civilians even for anyway?
Itch is where I get 90% of the games I play. And they are all free because I mostly play Visual Novels
You sound quite drunk 😂
Wow I didn’t even know that this existed.
What a nice documentary. Good job!
It's friendly to adult content as well. Places for adult creators are shrinking every year an it's so nice to have a safe haven like itch.
On the other hand, complete freedom also means the lack of quality control...
Itch is the modern newgrounds for me.
A problem I see with Itch is the lack of tooling for better searches.
Wow! This is great on so many levels! And the whole story is short and sweet. What a wonderful little documentary. Good luck!
Wasn't aware of the founders background. He seems like a really cool dude.
This is so professional I thought that this must be a massive channel. I hope you find the success you deserve.

While watching, I noticed that he says "Itch tries not to be like other platforms" but in the subtitles, it adds "especially Steam" at
Its nice to see people like this helping out and being community-friendly. We need more people like these guys.
