The developer in question, Anego Studios, is citing this catastrophe as the reason they're yanking their game, Vintage Story, from itch.io until further notice.

Explaining that Itch Corp has not paid out in "over three months", Anego Studios' Tyler Madlener took to Discord this morning in a pointed statement. Vintage Story will remain available for purchase on the Humble Store "without interruption", but with so much money quite literally on the line from ongoing revenue share, it's simple to see why this decision has been made.

I mean, I bought my copy from their website directly, but I can understand why a lot of folks aren’t comfortable with that for one reason or another.

Damn good game, though.

Started that way, ended up as it's own thing because the devs wanted to do more that the engine just wouldn't allow for. So they made their own.

Better game than Minecraft in every way (for me).
