Small update on Itch.io (01.08.2025)
Added 2025-08-01 07:26:41 +0000 UTCSeems like Itch.io reindexing adult games, meaning getting back these games in the search. But the condition for this is for the game to be not only free, but also to disable any payments for it. Full statement from admin of itch: https://itch.io/t/5149036/reindexing-adult-nsfw-content
This is not the best for most devs, but at least games can get back to being discoverable. As they say, they want to "re-introduce" paid content, so we can hope.
And hopefully I don't have to bring any more bad news to you about this by such posts.

It's possible, if itch won't say otherwise. But I believe most devs would like to have the ability to sell their games where they host them. Also, it's still a bad precedent.
