Despite being banned from Steam and Epic, horror game Horses sells 18,000 copies—and while that's enough to pay loans and royalties, it's not enough for a new game

While future sales could change that, "reuniting everyone will not be easy."

PC Gamer

Banned Steam game Horses sells 18,000 units in 2 weeks and earns $65,000 – enough to break even but not enough to keep its studio from disbanding: "Fragmentation is a lasting consequence"

Santa Ragione wants "clearer rules, transparent processes, and meaningful accountability from near monopolistic distribution platforms and the systems they enforce"

GamesRadar

Producer behind banned horror game Horses says public outcry and support "made a huge, huge difference," but it's still "very likely" the end for the studio

"We might be able to pay back the people who have lent us the money and pay off the debt. But it's unlikely that will give us enough money to actually produce something new at this point"
