wanna try and write an otome vn with 2 distinct different routes this year 💪

Bouken desho intensifies

Chibi art of ebihimes oc’s: tavi (long dark hair in a ponytail) lovingly looking at yuel (short brown hair, blushing in a pink maid cafe dress) serving him a slice of cake. They are surrounded by oversized confections, strawberries, and sorbet in a pink and yellow theme

It's only really an issue if your game is staggeringly unpopular so nobody leaves positive reviews to counteract the bad faith negative ones. OW seems to have a dedicated fandom so you'll be fine.

My VNs are all on Itchio already, and people have no qualms about being rude to me on there either.

You have to pay $100 for every game you want to publish on Steam, but once you have paid it you don't need to pay again for the same game.

it costs $100 to upload any game to steam, both paid and commercial games

tbf if the game is popular enough the handful of bad faith negative reviews won't do too much harm since it'll be drowned out by the positive reviews from people who actually read the thing and enjoyed it
but if the game is unpopular these negative reviews can have a pretty big impact though

This is also one of the reasons I don't upload more of my free VNs to Steam.
It's a hassle to release games on Steam in the first place, it costs $100, and there's a lot of unpleasant ppl out there who dl all free visual novels/lgbt games solely to leave hateful reviews

Makes me wonder why they even let developers flag reviews as being abusive if they do nothing about it

i reported the reviews to steam for being abusive and steam decided these reviews were fine and kept them up so there's nothing i can do 😔

i reported these reviews for being abusive but a steam moderator decided they were just fine so there's nothing i can do about it yay ❤️✨

i have genuinely thought about removing this vn from steam even though it's one of my fav projects b/c it has barely any reviews so these negative ones actually have a huge impact
i don't want my passion project being a target like this 😔

no, there's no way to see that
this is a free vn though so it wouldn't make any sales anyway

like these ppl clearly did not read the vn and had 0 intentions of doing so, they just want to be insulting

i'm ngl i do find it legit pretty upsetting that i released a 200k+ bl vn for free and steam and it has 5 negative reviews out of 19 from people with 10 minutes of playtime complaining about how gay people are immoral

thank you... i'll have to see how it turns out 🙏

did i stutter

i'm gonna write another bl vn for this year's yaoijam... hopefully i can finish it 🙏

when you're sending an invoice to a company and you accidentally copy and paste like 500 words of text from a smutty bl story you were writing into it 😔

thank you!

you do indeed 🙏

Cafe of Roses on Steam A lowkey, low stakes yuri story about a young woman and a mysterious maid. Who is the engimatic Magdalena, and is there more to her than meets the eye?

Cage of Roses on Steam A haunting gothic romance set in the 19th century. Follow Meike, a young woman from an impoverished noble family, as she’s swept off her feet by the mysterious Magdalena: a vampire who possesses a dar...

nope, it's a slice of life story with maids
cage of roses (story w/ the same charas in an alt universe) is more carmilla adjacent but even then i think it's more like beauty and the beast with vampires

Screenshot from the video game Persona 4. In the halls of Yasogami High, the protagonist talks to a male student labeled "Stylish student". His dialogue window reads: "Hanging out with women, going on dates with them, that's fine. Killing them? Not so much."
