WarnerBros Discovery have informed me they will be 'retiring' my game Small Radios Big Televisions from both Steam and PS4 stores.

I've made it free to download here: https://fire-face.com/games/srbt.html

Thanks for all your support.

Got to wonder why retire the game. Does it actively cost money to have available or something?

From the article on pcgamer.com:

My understanding is that at the very least they still need to pay someone to administer the royalty payments to developers (me), respond to any administration requests from the platforms, update promo assets if the platform requires," Deery said. "AFAIK no one who actually helped publish these Adult Swim games works there anymore, so I figure they thought it just wasn't worth their time from a business perspective to maintain 'legacy' products."

Okay yea that does make sense. Considering the game is relatively unknown and https://steamdb.info/app/390040/charts/ ... apparently has had an occasional single player every now and then, yea, probably not worth it to have someone on it.
