Free NSFW games returning to Itch.io, paid content to come

Itch.io is reintroducing free NSFW games and plans to gradually bring back paid adult games. The platform is implementing a new "content warning" system to tag adult content as NSFW. Developers will need to tag their projects appropriately for reindexing. Itch.io is in discussions with payment provider Stripe, which currently cannot support sexually explicit content due to restrictions from its banking partners, but remains optimistic about future support for adult content.

Free adult NSFW content returns to itch.io, as one of the platform’s major payment processors expresses hope to ‘support adult content in the future’

Leaf Corcoran, the founder of Itch.io, announced a re-indexing of free adult content on the platform and the introduction of a new content warning system. This decision follows a comprehensive de-indexing of adult content due to pressure from an anti-pornography lobby group targeting credit card processors. Itch.io is seeking alternative payment processors that can handle adult material, as its primary partner, Stripe, currently cannot support sexually explicit content due to restrictions from its banking partners. Stripe has expressed a hopeful outlook for the future but cannot accommodate content "designed for sexual gratification." The situation arose after the Australian lobby group Collective Shout called for major payment processors to stop processing payments for platforms hosting adult content.

The dev behind one of my favorite recent FPSes is making a ‘horror game about a trainee metro driver trapped in the dampest subway east of anything that matters’ set in a real city that doesn’t actually have a subway

The game is part of the indie horror trend focusing on mundane and workplace-oriented themes, featuring a narrative-driven psychological horror experience about a trainee metro driver.
