The dev responded, and they said they don't plan to make a mobile version of the game, and that they have decided to let these unofficial versions to stay up because of that fact.

Hello, I got your game on itch.io a while ago now and just purchased it on Steam as well.


 I was searching That's Not My Neighbor, just looking out of curiosity and I came across a Google Play app titled, "That's Not My Neighbor" published by SoulvenWorks.


Since I know you published both the steam and itch versions under the Nachosama name I wanted to either bring it to your attention or check that this app is being produced by you before supporting or paying for anything within it. Based on a response to another person I saw you say that the only official versions are available on PC, I'm betting that these developers are stealing and 1,000% profiting off of your IP. 


Thank you for making such a fun game, I am glad to be able to support you across multiple platforms, and just want to make sure any purchases related to TNMN are returning to you in some way! 

I'm not a stranger (馃槈) to buying games I like for different systems/providers, and most of those cost a good bit more than both releases of "That's Not My Neighbor" combined! 

I never expected a refund for the itch.io game, or a steam key for the Steam version, even though that's a sweet thing to have tried to make happen for the players on itch.io, it's totally reasonable and understandable why you couldn't make that happen. I remember reading about how stressed you were when the Steam version release came out because Steam only allowed a very limited number of keys to be given out, if at all. 

I'm glad the game has blown up in popularity, and your success is exciting especially for those of us that want to see you create more things that you want, but even still you won't be able to please everyone, there would always be people that are mad about your decisions, so just try to make decisions that you feel good about and try to ignore the negativity. <3 

Considering the Steam release is an entirely different game, and you have the itch.io version, you got the game you paid for. 

It's unfortunate If you're in a situation where such little money causes so much issue, but even still I couldn't see being comfortable asking to revoke the financial support you've already given just so you can have what you want, especially considering now the itch.io version is going to be a collectors copy now that it's unavailable for purchase. 

It's natural to feel disappointed because they originally promised that the Steam version would be available to those who purchased the itch.io version, but the game blew up in popularity and refunding everyone who purchased, or giving free steam keys, just isn't something we should expect from a Dev, especially if you actually enjoy their works and want them to make more games or projects in the future.

Your terrible situation of not having financial freedom isn't because of the dev, this is a low cost to have access to a new experience, you should be upset with your home situation, not the creatives you claim you wanted to support.

So cute, and everyone I showed says it looks like me!

There's already an option! If you go into options, then accessibility option (wheel chair icon) it will be the third check box down from the top. Hope this helps!

I recently lost my cat, and this game simultaneously made me sad and happy, it's vey cute and well made.
