Do I have to pay for every version released? I already paid for the last version and now its asking me payment for 0.4.0 as well? Wouldn't it be best to charge one time fee for the whole series?
hello there, default price for the game is 5 $(thats the suggested price). The update itself cost 3.75$( now it’s 50% sale because of itch’s august sale). The next update will be 4$, etc.
If you pay the suggested price of 5$, all of the next updates you can download for free, because you payed more then the price of the next update.
The third option is to wait this update become free when the next one is published.
btw, I do it that way, because I’m not sure how anybody will pay 10-12$ for early access of such a game with all updates included (5$ is more affordable even if you have to pay it two times, the price will be 10-12$ again but you’ll decide if the game is good enough to pay the full price). Thing that as my new idea for more user-friendly business model :D
Soooo, first, you didn’t payed for the previous update (0.3.1) 3.75$. You payed 3.50 $. The current one costs (0.4.0) 3.75$. The next one(0.5.0) will cost 4.00$. The next-next one will costs 4.25$, etc. I expect around five more updates for this game, so, yeah. The final update will cost 5$. Finally, you’ll pay(if you bought every update, of course) around 15-16$ for the final product, as much as in steam for that kind of game. BUT! If you’re smart enough, you’ll pay 5$ (suggested price) and if I can understand itch.io’s logic that will give you access to the whole files which are under 5$(yeah, it’s strange that logic).
I hope now it’s clear how is my pricing working.
P.S. finally, I hope you don’t expected the full game costs 3.5$. That will be… will be Underwhelming.
Hi, I tried to download part 2 of the game version 0.3.1, but the site or link doesn't work. It doesn't connect. Also, I'm seeing Itch.IO flag message saying the page is being quarantined. Is there another link where I can download the game?
Hi, friend. You surprised me with that quarantine flag message. Obviously itch.io are imbeciles. A two week ago I received customer complaints about the same as yours and the support told him that
We have identified the external link this developer is using as a phishing link, and unsafe for users. We are including the developer on this email to allow them to respond and to ensure that they provide content that is not a virus or harmful. If they fail to respond, we will refund the purchase and suspend the account.
Thank you
As I told you, they are total imbeciles.
About the download.
There is nothing phishing in the links I have attached to download the files. I use the paid services of GoFile, who are a very legitimate hosting provider. Please, if you have any more issues with the downloading, email me directly.
Also, I checked a second ago to see if there was a problem with the download page and there isn't. See if you disabled the browser pop-up. Security settings can disable it.
Hey, thanks for the reply Milo. Yeah, I believe it could be on my end with pop up blocker and/or my security app that could be blocking it. Nevertheless, I found another external website that I believe you might also post at. The download link there works fine. I'll just use Itch.IO to tip for your work for the next update. I enjoy your game, thank you very much.
Btw... the only one site that I'm officially maintain is my threads in f95. The links there, I could assure you that are legit and safe. Otherwise... I can't.
Btw2 - I put a MEGA mirror for the links, so use it if you want.

When can the latest version be downloaded for free?
after a month, I guess
thank you. ^^
Wish more devs who use mega would use gofile like you did
Also I'm guessing there is no light path I can tell from the name
uh… no. No light path in “Dark path”.
The problem is that itch.io blacklisted my games because of using gofile.

i still don't understand. I payed 3.75 for last update. How much more do I have to pay so that I can have access to all updates hereafter?

Thanks for clarifying!
The best part of this game was the MC's mom and aunt.
Dev decided to change the focus of the game (incest) and messed up the game.
I uninstalled the game, after starting to play Dark Path
The game started well but Dev messed up, maybe because of greed.

Soon I think to implement mega-mirror too.
Thanks for the feedback. Try again.
