I love the idea of game. If it's ever released in full here, I'd be happy tp buy iy, but I don't use Steam.
I've never used Steam because I don't like how their functional monopoly status distorts how games are made, marketed, sold, and evaluated.
I just don't trust them and the influence they've had on game development, especially small game dev teams.
Also their requirement of being signed in to launch when they first started was not something I ever wanted to support.
Itch and GOG are my main sources for games, and have been for years.
