Our game was removed because it offers extensive body customization, and the platform expressed concerns that users might misuse these features to create inappropriate content, despite the fact that we have implemented strict safeguards that make such content impossible to create.
what happened to the steam version? I thought maybe the dev was dead or arrested but they replied to a commet 4 days ago why wont they tell us whats going on!!!!!

Mac version does not launch (M1 Pro, Sequoia 15.1.1)
I ran the `xattr -cr` fix. No longer get the "application is broken" error. Now nothing happens (Finder just 'blinks'). I have tried everything from running with Rosetta, code-signing myself with a developer cert, disabling gatekeeper altogether...it stubbornly refuses to launch.
also i think adult gaming industry more games that is not just vn most adults games are vns so i love when i se games like this that is not a vn but this happen
Are you saying being compensated for our work is a "dick move"? By definition a demo gives a glimpse of the full experience, and the full game includes everything we've poured our effort into.
I understand. We did not remove content, the demo was cut from a developer branch while the Itch version is our most stable public release so far. This game is still under development.
I purchased this game here as part of a bundle over a year ago. However, if I’m understanding this correctly, I don’t get access to the most current build here? As of this post, version 39 is the latest build available on Itch.io (which I believe I am downloading), but I’ve read that version 42 is currently available on Patreon.
Additionally, the version 39 that I just downloaded doesn’t seem to have any new content compared to what I played almost a year ago. Maybe I'm getting a bad download link, however, it seems like I have the same exact characters to play with and nothing new. For example, even the demo available on Steam includes content that isn’t present in version 39 here (namely, the dong shaper).
I appreciate the effort and creativity you’ve poured into this game, but the practice of restricting access to the most up-to-date builds to a separate paid subscription while asking us to wishlist the game on Steam may feel off-putting to some long-time supporters.
Between my past Patreon subscriptions and the original purchase of the game on Itch.io, I’ve already contributed more than enough to pay for what would be considered a full and legitimate copy of the game. Having more advanced versions on Patreon while offering older builds elsewhere creates confusion and may harm trust among your player base, especially as Steam’s Early Access guidelines encourage consistency across platforms.
For example:
Steam’s Early Access guidelines recommend that the same version of a game should not be made available later on Steam than on other platforms.
Pricing should also remain consistent across platforms, which could pose an issue if the content locked behind a separate Patreon paywall is perceived as being "more complete" than what’s available on Steam.
I’m a supporter and want to see your game succeed, but I’d strongly encourage you to consider aligning the versions and pricing across platforms before your game enters Early Access on Steam in January 2025. Transparency and fairness are key to building a loyal and satisfied community, and inconsistent practices like this may harm trust and reputation in the long run.
I want to be clear here - I'm trying to be constructive because I do want to see this game grow and I think it's it's an extremely creative idea.
Either way, thanks for reading, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this.
If I were the creator, there are some elements I would like to change, but I like the idea of this game. and also I wonder if I can use the dildo machin or it is not available in beta?
New update 39 BETA for iOS having troubleshoot. Since you unzip file and trying to click on app it says only ``app is damaged and cannot be opened,, with recommendation to bin it.
After I tried step to open file without start the game and get into terminal but the terminal is the issue and cannot be opened.
Watched a couple videos of gameplay and people seem to have different consoles in their lab. IE: the Fabricator and the Morph Station. I don't have these. Is it an unlock from progress or achievement or am I missing something?
small issue but the nerf gun, the ping pong gun and the disintegrator often get stuck in my hand (I'm on windows desktop mode). and it prevents me from using my hands and other tools. beta 39
Well, as this seems to be the main thread I copied my remarks for version 39 here: Ah, the proposed cameras have arrived, even with different modes - very nice!
But I don't see where their picture is shown?
Thanks a lot for fixing the death ragdolls. Contrary to the change log the death ragdolls are fixed for every device, you can now even switch to a different machine and position with the dead lady without having odd effects like in the previous versions.
I don't know if it's due to the fixed death ragdoll behavior or some other optimization, but the breast jiggling seems to be much better now. While it's still nearly not happening with the awake ladies, it's already visible for the sleeping ladies and perfect for the dead ladies.
Especially in the poser machine in the position selected by the top right button, going for vagina and using the second fastest thrust it's really awesome.
Not yet fully realistic but getting a lot closer. And you can see the different breast tendernesses, the best for my taste is the catwoman.
I really wish I wouldn't have to kill them to get the proper jiggling, though :-D
In this position in the poser machine the pubic hair of all ladies seems to have a bit of a glitch.
The automation ring is nice, but doesn't do too much to my fetishes... but tastes are different and it's a really interesting machine. I expect that it's perfect for a tickling fetish.
I'm still missing the dildo machine for the devious machine (at least I hope it's the name for the one that puts her in doggy style position).
And having a dual dildo option would also be cool similar to what you have in the automation ring.
I love the creampie animation on the x-ray machine. I'm also very happy with the cum dripping out from the pussy that arrived in the previous update though I think the cum should less liquid, more gel-like and therefore drip slower. And of course stay a lot longer... perhaps with a "clean" function similar to the "reset clothes" or simply a towel that you can use on her.
I still have to test the rest, but so far it's really great work!
Oh, and thanks for finally enabling putting in the cheat code via num pad, it was always a bit of a nuisance to do that by mouse in the desktop mode!
I stand corrected. The autmation ring is awesome if you use it right.
The new objective / achievement system really teaches you what you can do with the villain simulator, even though I sometimes try it with the wrong machine first. It took me a while to find out that the 10 orgasms in 20 seconds objective is absolutely easy to achieve on the automation ring, with the full genital tools at max speed plus a keep conscious serum you can have the girl orgasming nearly constantly. Add the orgasm refactory serum and she doesn't stop squirting at all anymore.
As the objective / achievement system works so well I don't know if the original instruction box on the left is still needed... feels kind of superfluous now.
And it took me a bit to discover the CnC mode, the game is better with a bit of protest.
Is it possible to add a way to adjust the rate at which clothes are disintegrated? Like have an option so the clothes get disintegrated slowly as opposed to a one shot.
Turns out itch just didnt tell me I ran out of space. But While we're at it, there doesnt appear to be a strafe control for the motion controllers. turn only.

can we get an explanation on why the game was removed on steam?
Our game was removed because it offers extensive body customization, and the platform expressed concerns that users might misuse these features to create inappropriate content, despite the fact that we have implemented strict safeguards that make such content impossible to create.

I would contact steam if you can about it.
Will it have to be released on other websites instead like itch or gamejolt?
What happened to the steam page? Can we get an update here?

What happened to the steam version? Hope you are good though. I really like the game.
I got the itch.io version and some of the features that are available aren't working im not really sure what could cause that to happen
Why was The Villain Simulator removed from steam
Hello, does the game update itself automatically? I bought the game here and I'm not sure if I have the latest version.
Hello. You need to check on Itch and download a new version if is available
why dont you tell why the game was removed from steam?
Hoping to play demo its gone from steam
Mac version does not launch (M1 Pro, Sequoia 15.1.1)
I ran the `xattr -cr` fix. No longer get the "application is broken" error. Now nothing happens (Finder just 'blinks'). I have tried everything from running with Rosetta, code-signing myself with a developer cert, disabling gatekeeper altogether...it stubbornly refuses to launch.
Please advise.
Had to get the game on Patreon any idea why it's been taken down on Steam?
The game on steam was remove? What happend?
i saw that and im kinda sad about it
yeah, im so exited about them.
i hope the dev can work out whatever happen
Kinda worrying that the Dev wont respond to us about why its gone. you literally cannot even talk in the community anymore or ANYTHING.
also i think adult gaming industry more games that is not just vn most adults games are vns so i love when i se games like this that is not a vn but this happen
why was the game removed from steam i was really looking for it cos it seems fun
any word on fixing it for Mac? it just says damaged file when I download
Disabled a lot of features for free in the steam demo.
a dick move.
you include a few things and removed others.
I am not happy at all
Are you saying being compensated for our work is a "dick move"?
By definition a demo gives a glimpse of the full experience, and the full game includes everything we've poured our effort into.
A damn typo. Sorry.
"In the 20 dollars version are missing features that are included in the demo"
Talking about serums. Completely disabled the creation.
Also the D modifier.
I know development is a PITA, but how can you remove working things just like that
I understand. We did not remove content, the demo was cut from a developer branch while the Itch version is our most stable public release so far. This game is still under development.
I understand your explanation, but I still see missing features.
I will be honest, I think the game is fun, but I still dont like the feeling
Of course a game that is incomplete would be missing features, again, this game is still under development.

do you ever plan on making a quest port for this?
We don't have plans for it yet
Will they release a version for Android?
Android is not in the scope
Does the Beta 42 will be available also for itcho users?
Yes in a couple of months

Without admin repair is unable to fix it I guess.
Let us know about updates! :)
I am having the same problem
seems like admin do not reply so we can just wait…
This doesn't work on my mac??? Tried redownloading twice, still same error. No option in the security tab to open anyway :/
Can I get refunded?
Watched a couple videos of gameplay and people seem to have different consoles in their lab. IE: the Fabricator and the Morph Station. I don't have these. Is it an unlock from progress or achievement or am I missing something?
Some features are not public yet, they will come in future versions
when will there be another beta?
Hi, probably within a month
When i buy it from here do i get the newest update and have the game for ever
yes
Will Simplified Chinese be added to this game in the future
Probably, we are still considering languages and at what point of development we will add them
Hello, you can purchase it on Itch.io for $19.99
Wish there was a stuck in wall or stuck in machine mode
small issue but the nerf gun, the ping pong gun and the disintegrator often get stuck in my hand (I'm on windows desktop mode). and it prevents me from using my hands and other tools. beta 39
Thanks, we are investigating that issue
I have macbook m3 (sequoia 15.1) and beta 39 stopped working on it. But beta 38 works fine.
can you please add more tickle spots like the stomach and also more tickle tools like a electric toothbrush or idk!!
Will early release work on Steam deck?
It seems I can only use the demo...?

yes

Sorry, that is not possible
( Edit: never mind, my fault. ) beta 39 flickers rapidly then freezes shortly after loading while using WMR HPreverbG2
Can you check if any of this helps?

do you plan on adding a futa serum or more types of characters ?
Hello, futa is out of scope. We will be adding more vanila characters along the way.
Just as a hint so that it isn't overlooked: I placed a comment for the new version in the development link of Beta 39.
