Sweet Hamster Days was initially rejected by Steam, perhaps because Valve is more restrictive of games that feature sexually explicit images of real people, or possibly for some other reason we'll never know. As a designer called Oda told Automaton, "We still don’t know exactly how the platform saw things, but after revising details such as the age rating settings and re-submitting the game, it was eventually approved."
This is an FMV game where you die and are reincarnated as a hamster named Hamta, the pet of three sisters who seem to spend most of their time gazing lovingly into the camera while pretending to pat you on the head. "We're calling it a completely unprecedented genre," Oda said, "a kind of 'being-taken-care-of adventure game.'"
