itch.io

Wrong, it's not getting shafted, they just said that in this post. It's just not getting multiplayer and the updates will be a bit late for the sake of bug testing and polishing. And as the other guy said, yeah nobody knew not even Mike.

Because it's not the exact same game, it has different features. You pay more for more features. It'd be like asking why two ramen cups from the same brand have a different price when the other has 20% more ramen, youre paying for the extra ramen.

Assuming you bought the game before the Steam release, youre paying a full dollar less. You get what you pay for. If it weren't for Steam rules I'd like it if they kept the itch.io release cheaper, because equalizing the price but having less features is a cheap move, but otherwise it's fair enough.

You pay a dollar less, you get a dollar less worth of a game. Completely fair.

It's 2.99, even if you have a limited income just. Yk. Save for it? Buy it on discount? It's a dollar extra, I paid $4 to donate and I'm on a limited income too right now. Just save for it, games are a luxury expense to begin with and if you cant pay for them to begin with stop spending money on them.
