Today A Hand in the Darkness has been banned from Steam.



It was only a matter of time, to be honest, since the game doesn't comply with the current Steam guidelines (it did in 2017, when it was released, although it was always in a grey area, same as all the other games with adult content but whose main focus isn't set on the erotic scenes).

As the ones who follow my Twitter or Facebook might know, the game was about to get a DLC with after scenes, featuring Alex' relationship with his chosen love interest some years into their future, and also brand new characters sprites, sharper and with more expressions, two CGs and some new scenes. For now, A Hand in the Darkness and the DLC will be only available on itch.io.

I guess the ones of you who bought the game but never got to play it or have less than an hour of playing time can ask for a refund on Steam. The rest of you, please email me at ertal77@hotmail.com with a screenshot with any kind of proof of ownership of AHitD on Steam and I'll send you a download key for itch.io.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your support!
