About itch.io

itch.io is an open marketplace and digital distribution platform for indie games, game jams, and creative projects, launched in March 2013 by Leaf Corcoran. The platform is known for its developer-friendly revenue model with 0% mandatory revenue share (developers can optionally donate 10% or support the platform). itch.io hosts over 1 million games and projects across PC (Windows, macOS, Linux), web, mobile (Android), and consoles. The platform features itch.io Game Jams (over 100,000 hosted jams including Global Game Jam, Ludum Dare, and themed community jams), game sales, pay-what-you-want pricing, game bundles (hundreds of games for charity), early access, free games, HTML5 games, and devlogs. itch.io offers developer tools including custom storefronts, analytics, automated payments (PayPal, Stripe, credit cards), and revenue sharing controls. The platform has no content curation gatekeeping, allowing all creators to publish, but also faces challenges with discoverability, quality control, and limited marketing features. itch.io is popular for experimental games, art projects, visual novels, RPGs, and educational games, with prominent titles including A Short Hike, Celeste (original PICO-8 version), The Stanley Parable Demo, Dwarf Fortress (older versions), and Undertale Demo.
