@Alon I think going for the WTB should still work as long as you can remain in government for long enough? Also rallies and campaigning are helpful.

It's almost time for ECTOCOMP, the annual competition for spooky interactive fiction! Spend the next six weeks perfecting your spine-tingling masterwork, or start four hours before the deadline and enter the speed-writing category. Submissions open October 1 and games will be released just in time for Halloween.

IntroComp

Home of IntroComp, an annual interactive fiction competition where participants develop excerpts of interactive fiction, gain feedback from audience reactions, and hopefully use this feedback to release a final product.

85 new interactive fiction entries are ready for you to play and judge. (You only need to rate 5 to cast a ballot!)

@lonespelunker I understand about the delistings, but there are a number of games that have been completely suspended from the site rather than delisted. For example https://norbez.itch.io/bi-lines. And I don't think outsiders know exactly how those were selected...
Bi Lines by Norbez Jones (call me Bez)

1981. And you're still not straight. Mother will be ashamed.

HFTGOOM has been restricted in the UK on itch.

If you are in a country that doesn't have legal access to my games you can still play them on my self hosted website:

Right now it seems like the best option for authors to avoid suspensions is to not use tags as content warnings. And to just minimize the use of descriptive metadata.

Regarding itch, right now I'm more worried about the suspensions than the delistings. The questions I have are, 1) have any no-payments games been suspended, and 2) how are games being targeted for suspension? I think they did an automatic ban on certain author-provided tags, and I would like to know what those tags are. I do not believe anyone manually reviewed (for example) Bi Lines for suspension.
