On January 1st the EU introduce a new piece of legislation that will cripple independent developers like us. We will have to organize and pay VAT on our games for each country in the European Union separately.

We don't make nearly enough money from Hashtag Dungeon to qualify for VAT usually, but as of tomorrow morning we'll have to pay it in the EU regardless of how little we make. We're only two guys and we don't have the time or money to deal with the extra burden of this.

As of tonight at 11pm we will be removing Hashtag Dungeon from sale on itch.io until the EU rethink this decision. We are really upset that we have to do this, but we don't want to break the law - no matter how crazy it is.

We will still be updating the game in the future regardless of removing it from the store! We're having one last big sale today in order to give the game out to as many new players as we can!

Also as we have said many times - once we get the game up on Steam, we will also give Steam Keys to everyone who has bought the game! Considering that we just got Greenlit this is going to happen sooner rather than later!



The more money we can raise today, the longer we can support development work and the server costs we accrue each month to keep the game running. We've put a target goal of £500.00 that should keep the server running for ages.

If you want to help fight this change in the way VAT works you can sign this petition.

You can also go and vote on our Greenlight, if we get onto Steam then we won't have to deal with this issue nearly as much.

Also, we'd appreciate it if you sent out a tweet or shared this sale with your friends on Facebook or whatever social media platform you use nowadays!

We know that itch.io is working on a fix for this legislation but until it's definitely sorted out we don't want to risk breaking the law. Once things get sorted we'll put the game back up for sale.
