Greetings, just wanted to raise awareness on the situation concerning the game Agony Unrated.

Few days ago the developers have removed the game from libraries of everyone who got the game through any means other than buying it through Steam Store or receiving a review copy.
This includes everyone who bought the game in a bundle, original kickstarter backers as well as people who received the Unrated version from being original adopters of "Agony" before the Unrated version.

Developers have blocked all forms of communication with them, the phones do not work, they do not answer emails, they do not respond on Steam Forums.
As far as people can tell, this is a deliberate and malicious attempt at forcing everyone who got the Unrated version "for free" (I say in quotations because people still paid for it, be it through Kickstarter, Bundles or original release) to rebuy the game.

Furthermore Steam refuses to help, citing that since it was "technically" a "free" copy, developers are in their right to do so and Steam refuses to intervene, they would only intervene if the game was removed from people who directly bought it through Steam Store (and those people are currently unaffected).

More information about this on the game's Steam Forums:
