Valve reportedly no longer permits games with "mature themes" to be released in early access. As detailed by Dammitbird and reported by GamesMarkt, adult game Heavy Hearts failed Valve's review last month "because [Valve is] unable to support the Early Access model of development for a game with mature themes." The developer was invited to resubmit the game for approval when it was "ready to launch without Early Access." “Due to current events, I panicked and contacted my publisher to help me get on Steam Early Access," the developer told GamesMarkt. Since Patreon used to be the king of de-listing kinky adult games, I never put much stock in it.
