hmmm will this mean unused keys from IndieGala Friday Special #27 will be ok to use?
Lets hope so.

I'd report them to the FTC or whatever the equivalent of that is for whatever area you're from. It's a violation of consumer law what they did. Not really sure what will happen to them if enough complaints role in. Unless the keys are fixed, which they have yet to be...

he removed the game from steam, so yeah i'm thinking he just ganked most of us and yes, should very much be reported to the FTC, it's up to them to decide if what he did warrents further investigations, fines or complete seizure of assets... Worst case obviously, what he did amounts to theft, and well, yeah, most governments aren't fond of people stealing from consumers..

I've heard nothing, maybe one of us should screenshot the dev on the community hub saying the keys would be valid again soon and include it in an indiegala support email and ask if it's true... I would do it right now but I'm sidelined AFKish with RL.

I now have a rare removed game on acc :D Wee
I'm a rare games collector now (⌐■ ͜ʖ■)

It's the new indie developer model. Make unfinished early access game with cards and put in a couple of cheap bundles. Wait a bit and then remove game. profit.

Before removing the game, revoke all unused keys!
Generate millions of working keys for yourself and trade as a rare steam removed game. Sell the traded AAA games on gee too a. Use your millions to buy the rights of the sequel of a well known franchise that will sell billions.
Billions of profits.

now actually... thats not such a bad idea at all :o

garbage removed games are still garbage, the only removed games worth a dang, were actually pretty good games to begin with.. like Mafia 1, DeadPool (when it was removed) Prey, etc.
Sure you have collectors who will pay for a really rare game, but Axyos isn't a really rare game, this guy is just a tool,

not entirely true 007 Legends or Saw were not received well, especially on PC, but until cheap key got dumnped into market (rusian keys for 007 and Saw on Nuuvem they were quite pricy to get. Not as Pricy as Mafia ofc, but still didn't cost a little and there were many people willing to buy them. The actual difference I believe is not that these games were/are good, but because they were not available for next to nothing prior to them being removed. Bundle game means there are hundreds if not thousands of leftover keys (not to mention many people owning it thanks to bundle already), so if the game gets removed there are still many places to get it. Game that was expensive was not holded by thousands of users so when it gets removed there are far less people who you can buy it from.

Got a fast e-mail reply from devs. AXYOS will be back on store in 2 weeks.
Probably wanting to avoid more negative reviews while the key thing is not sorted out.
Shady.

I'd take anything they say with a grain of salt -- or I'll believe it when I see it.

What low-lifes, seriously. Maybe if we're lucky they'll stay out of the business.

Probably Indiegala Every Monday #89. That is where I got mine.
It was also in the Friday Special #27 and the Bundlestars Playlist bundle

Seems it's in my account, and I have 3 gifts of it in my inventory, so maybe a 4-pack happened? But hot damn, shady devs are shady.

Yeah i think he just did that according to this discussion on Steam

IG can't do anything if the developer doesn't have steam reactivate the keys or provide a new batch of keys to IG.. The Developers removal of Axyos from steam speaks volumes to how he plans to play this.. He's hoping the storm blows over and people forget...
Ask The Body Changer Devs if people forget... they don't...
Comment has been collapsed.
I hope that you do understand that it's not their fault but game developer/publisher. They're well aware of the problem and doing everything to solve it, but if dev doesn't want to cooperate then pretty much it'll end in court and IG is not capable of magically providing you with working keys.

This issue is almost a month old now, don't be shocked that people are slowly losing their patience, such important fuckups should be fixed immediately or as soon as possible, I'd issue all keys being revoked to be assigned again, even if that would mean further problems for me.

No problems! Neither did I, I'm in a steam group that warns you whenever a game gets pulled out from Steam. I believe it happened March 30th.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'd like to know the name of this group please. I would like to join as well.

That's a brazilian group called Jogos Removidos Brasil (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/jogosremovidosbrasil). It was created recently and all of its posts are written in brazilian portuguese. Hope it helps you!

Thanks a lot! They have the sticky notes public so I'm able to check the lists!
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes! The topic called Indice de Jogos Removidos features a list of all games. The topic hasn't been updated in a while (Axyos is not on that list yet).

I can't write a review since they/ve taken the game off the store

Seems to be back up for those who haven't checked:

Some bundlestars keys are meant to be working now.
Comment has been collapsed.
So, devs claim that keys are fixed. My key from my key list is still invalid, so I'm going to see if the bundle has a new key. Problem is, I don't know where I got it. Anyone have a list of bundles with the game in the last 6 months? ITAD only lists two Gala bundles.

as if it wasn't (apparently?!) scummy enough, i've looked around and don't see that the thread was moved or anything, do they think they can just quietly delete it and it will go away?
Any further information welcome, will link this from the original thread in SGifts since the steamcommunity thread was deleted.
I screenshotted the pages of the thread in my buffer:

Really not looking for self-promotion here, by all means make your own and post it and I will thumbs it up, buuuut, until we get our keys back, consider contributing to the steam store dissent in some way:
