removedSo here it is in one place. I did not know the rules of steam. And as such people that have been afiliated with the game posted reviews in the past. I had no malicious intent here, and where as ignorance is not a great excuss it is what happened. All of the reviews that do not meet the policy of steam have been removed, and now knowing the rules will not happen again. And I whole heartedly appolgize for any hardship or confusion I have caused. I truely hope that the community can forgive my ignorance. I really should have read more of the terms and services... Update: I have been thinking about this all day (and laying in bed thinking about it all night) and here is what I have come to... If for any reason you feel that you have been mislead by any of the reviews in question I will refund your money no matter how long ago you made the purchase (if you can still get your refund from stream that is probably a better option as it will get it to you faster). This goes for all my games. I am not here to hurt people. I want(ed) to make games in order to bring joy to people not sadness. I will need 2 things in order for me to do this: 1) your steam receipt so that I know how much you spent (just send me a friend request and send me a screenshot of it). 2) your paypal account to send the money to (dont post it here, send me a friend request and share it privately). I dont have a company paypal account but I will start setting one up tomorrow in order to facilitate this. If I run out of money, which is a very real posibility being as I have very very little right now, then you may need to wait until I get more, but I will get you refunded... It doesnt matter that I did not know the reviews were improper, what matters is making sure no one was/is hurt by them. Again I appoligize in advance to anyone hurt by this.
