    @Steam Please escalate the support ticket (HT-5D77-Y7JV-QQJF) on my game Gene Shift Auto (appid=308600). You released it F2P yesterday, but screwed it up and now no one can download the game. I've sent multiple messages but no response for 17 hours now. Please fix this asap.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Hey guys, just wanted to mention that there are several games that were VERY deserving of specific awards, but a LOT of them were ONLY available on the "Labor of Love" category. One such example, "Just Shapes & Beats" should've been music. Fix next year pls?

    @Steam @Steam I've been having a problem since Saturday and no one answers my call

  • Anthonyyfmm Anthony (@Anthonyyfmm) reported

    @CamLTou2 @Steam 99% of games on steam are not under steams development. Its a game launcher lol, if you have a problem with the game direct your anger to the company who made the game. On top of that steam has an incredibly easy refund system.

  • notHazeWrld Hazewrld (@notHazeWrld) reported
