In case anyone is wondering, you can add the .exe to steam via games -> add non steam game.
Then once added go to game properties -> compatibility-> force compatibility -> proton
Idk if you need to force it or not but that’s what i did and it’s working
How do you like the game so far?
I poked around it enough to make sure it worked but it says to play it in one sitting so I’ve got to find a chunk of spare time maybe this weekend. I think I’ll like it from what I’ve seen though. Some puzzles to solve and the premise intrigues me
Oh cool, I wasnt sure about how much space and stuff it’ll take, I’ll book mark this and check this weekend maybe. Thanks for the info .
Id be running on integrated graphics, so games that don’t require much are always nice haha
Download was 600mb so hopefully that is reasonable enough
The dev’s name is Cara Cadaver. Can’t get any better of a name for a horror game dev.
I used my Mastercard to donate to the dev. Eat shit credit card companies.
Good job paying Mastercard with your rebellion dollars.
So mastercard still gets what they want - to distance themselves from what they see as distasteful content - but this way they also still get the cut of your transaction anyway? That doesn’t seem like the most effective protest
Interesting point but… what else can we do? Mail the dev cash? PayPal direct from bank? CRYPTO. I completely forgot about crypto because of all the shady bullshit. But we buy crypto with… Mastercard. Shit.
I mean a reasonable solution would be to just move to a different bank that provides Visa instead of MasterCard
Is visa not also part of the problem?
Probably, but I don’t know of any others in America and Mastercard is the one currently under fire
Crypto might be a good thing overall if it wasn’t infested with tech bro’s and other scum
The flip side of this coin is, we also get what we want. Devs get paid, and we get games.
I’m not saying it’s ideal, and I understand your point…but it’s better than not paying. This is just a typical transaction with extra steps.
Me too fuck them. Maybe we can make this a trend start selling games direct and stop using Steam and Epic etc platforms. Do it how they did back during the old days as shareware.
MasterCard would allow this!?! Wow, this reflects so badly upon them!

Link to the game is kinda hidden in the article: https://dreadxp.com/vile-is-banned/.
I mean, the article embeds a video plastered with “VILEISBANNED.COM” in warning tape–style text.
Well guess better go get this game. How can I support them financially?
It says on the article and the website they accept donations :)
Yeah found it downloading game now, also made a donation.
Not sure how I feel about the dev using the internet archive to distribute the game.
By the way, who put it in the “Community software” collection? The game is not open source.
What’s wrong with using the internet archive?
It paints a target on IA as a piracy distro while it’s plainly not. IA is not in the piracy game but using it to distribute questionable content can raise flags elsewhere.
How could this be confused as piracy. It’s uploaded by the developers of the game?
