Hey Innersloth can I re-go to the old Among Us version 2021.4.2
Cuz in that new version that i hate is:
1.Leaving text broken
2.New font that I hate and also the oxygen depleted "today's code" new font and the reactor meltdown text "How to stop meltdown" or "Reactor nominal" is bold
3. Saying North America even when in Europe or Asia
4.Account required to play online while in the old version you don't need an account
5. Crewmates and Impostor font in all caps which is scaring me
Why you wrecked the game with that "quick chat"?!?! To play with randoms now is horrible!! They drop random accusation and no one cant explain himself! There is no way to discuss properly...
If you're using the itch.io PC version, it's no longer supported and you can't use an account on this version of the game. Your options are to use the provided Steam key (it's on your "download" page) or to contacted itch.io for a refund if you can't or won't use Steam (there's a variety of reasons people are avoiding Steam in the past few years). If you're doing the latter, I'd suggest also contacting Innersloth to let them know that you want the game to be supported on here.
Yeah. With no promise that anything will come of it (I've seen devs abandon ideas like that before because of a lack of ongoing demand after announcing they'll fix something people complained about), and no promise of a timeframe. I'd rather not see this go the same way.
No, my problem is the client itself. The only way that currently exists to work around the problem would prevent me from uninstalling games, managing downloads, and accessing most information about the content I'm supposed to own. And even doing that, there's a high risk of a simple misclick causing a migraine which has a risk of putting me in hospital because of how severe I get them. None of which is an acceptable workaround, particularly not 18 months after Valve was first made aware of the problem. There WAS a better workaround to begin with but it was a third-party option not supported by Valve and they've since blocked access to it.
The game works, you just can't make an account where you can choose your name or use the normal chat. You can add the game to Steam with the key on the download page though
I just got my refund, but I might come back if they restore support for itch.io and provide some kind of assurance that the game will remain fully accessible on this platform.
I got bullied in one server (some players said to me "ImPasta is drinking bleach", but mostly, they said to me that I'm a retard, fool, idiot, etc. I rage quitted the game.
They HAD published it here, they're still selling Steam keys here but the itch.io version is an "unsupported platform" now so it isn't really still published here.
If you're playing the game on itch.io they are no longer supporting it. Some people can't or won't use Steam for various reasons (medical problems verified to be caused by the Steam client in my case). If you're fine with Steam though, you can get a Steam key from the "download" page on itch.io if you bought the game here. If you aren't willing or able to move to Steam, contact the devs, give them another voice telling them you want the itch.io version supported (more people telling them this means they're more likely to actually care) and contact itch.io for the refund. I got mine organised a couple of days ago and the money back today.
Here, have a topic on the Steam forums posted by one of their own moderators to direct the conversation (and keep it out of the front lines by putting it into the "beta" forum instead of where it actually belongs since it's the live build of the client causing issues):
It has links to a number of prior discussions about the topic, dating back to a few days after the launch of the new library. I consider it lucky that I happened to be in just the right frustrated state over the situation (not realising Steam was causing it) to go "well it's OBVIOUSLY NOT this, but can't hurt to rule it out properly" when I heard someone else suggesting Steam was causing health problems for people. And in spite of going in with the expectation of proving the claim wrong (at least in my own case), I ended up having it verified instead.
And in the more than 18 months they've known it's a problem, Valve have made only one change affecting the customers dealing with the issue, and that was to block access to the only safe workaround we had for the first few months.
I'm always getting banned by host when I said Hi and GG, cuz the host banned me for no reasons like a little kid. I never done anything I never cuss and I don't like cussing and getting banned for nothing
Fortunately, after bouncing between places to get to the right one, I've ended up getting my copy of the game refunded. Here's hoping the devs bring back support for this version of the game instead of trying to force users onto an objectively-worse (and continuously getting even worse) platform.
Hey, I'm getting this recursive issue when trying to log in saying "PlatformNotSupported". I'm on a ROG laptop, so the OS technically isn't Windows, so now I can't create an account for Among Us which really sucks.
The itch.io version of Among Us is not currently supported for the use of accounts, which locks out core game content if you stick to using itch.io
Not everyone can use Steam, for a variety of reasons (including it being a literal health risk for some people, which Valve has known about and directly refused to address for over a year and a half). That said, if Steam isn't a problem for you, the download page on here has a Steam key you can use.
By triggering migraines, epilepsy, vertigo and several other conditions which Valve has known it's been affecting severely in many cases since the new library update in October of 2019.
Migraines. Which, for reference, I've had severe enough to put me into hospital before. And have never had triggered in over 30 years of computer use, across thousands of apps and dozens of operating systems, by any other piece of software. So when I had a spike in migraine frequency because of Steam, I wouldn't have suspected it to be the problem without further prodding. I was LUCKY that I happened to trust Valve at the time enough to think it's worth commenting with feedback in their forums about the new UI which came along with the problem. A few weeks after making a post in their forums, I saw someone else mention that it's been causing migraines and triggering seizures for some people. If I hadn't gotten to a point of being ready to give up on finding out why there was such a spike in my migraines at the time, I probably still wouldn't have bothered looking into it, but I was frustrated and running out of options. My thought was "well it's probably not that but I might as well check to rule it out as a possibility" - except that when I did so, I ended up finding that the updated Steam client WAS the problem.
And since then, by spreading the word about the problem, I've found numerous others who have been similarly affected by the client, and got to be the reason many of them realised Steam has been affecting them. Because like I would have been if I hadn't happened to be in the right conversation at the right time, they never even suspected Steam until I mentioned it as a problem.
You are running Windows, but that's not what it means. The platform it's referring to is the itch version of the game. To make an account you need to be using the Steam version. You can add the game to Steam with the key on the download page.
Friendly reminder to people who say they have quickchat: Go to settings, data then set it to free chat or quick chat, if you can't, install the google play app and make sure you're signed in. Itch.io file users, just download steam and make an account and use it, then you can make an account
Steam keys don't help paying customers who bought on itch.io because we can't use Steam and don't want the game on a platform which is a literal health hazard and has been known to be so for 18 months now.
Yes, funnily enough, a problem that sets off several problems for people with specific conditions which aren't present in the majority of people doesn't affect the majority of people. What a shocking revelation that is...
CD Projekt Red addressed a similar issue affecting a smaller number of users with Cyberpunk within 2 days of being made aware it was a problem, and fixed it as completely as can be done for a game of its type within ONE month. Valve have software which is easier to manage than the game in question in terms of the effects on the relevant medical conditions, and have not only failed to address the problem for more than EIGHTEEN TIMES as long as it took CDPR to completely fix their problem, but have directly made the problem WORSE instead of better.
At this stage in the situation, I consider Google Play to be a more viable PC gaming storefront than Steam, because workarounds that make it usable on PC aren't being actively and deliberately blocked by the platform the way workarounds that make the Steam client actually safe to use have been by Valve.
"The only one here" and "the only one with a problem" are two VERY different things. And by "here" you only mean "active in a rarely-used comment section" anyway. There's been plenty of discussion of the issues with Steam elsewhere, and I do my best to raise awareness because the weirdness of the situation is such that many affected people aren't even suspecting the possibility of Steam being a cause for the recent increase in their symptoms.
And that's before considering the number of non-medical reasons I know of for a variety of former Steam users to begin moving their game libraries elsewhere and step away from the platform, avoiding buying games there and refusing to accept Steam keys as a replacement for a non-Steam purchase. Notably their irresponsible (arguably illegal in some countries) approach to invasive DRM, as well as some people buying Epic's "they're ripping off the devs" line.
You'll have to use the Steam version to make an account. It doesn't work for the itch version. You can use the key on the download page to add the game to Steam
I ordered the red plushie from the Innersloth store, and it arrived today. I really like it, it's soft, squishy, and seems fairly durable. Most of the colors are out of stock now, but I'd suggest trying to snag one if you can, they're really great.

This game is no longer in the front page
It wont let me sign i

They say they're working on it in their most recent dev log
Yeah. With no promise that anything will come of it (I've seen devs abandon ideas like that before because of a lack of ongoing demand after announcing they'll fix something people complained about), and no promise of a timeframe. I'd rather not see this go the same way.
Is your problem with Steam the grid view? Why don't you just not use that?
No, my problem is the client itself. The only way that currently exists to work around the problem would prevent me from uninstalling games, managing downloads, and accessing most information about the content I'm supposed to own. And even doing that, there's a high risk of a simple misclick causing a migraine which has a risk of putting me in hospital because of how severe I get them.

There WAS a better workaround to begin with but it was a third-party option not supported by Valve and they've since blocked access to it.
Then why are itch.io selling the game for PC? I've just bought it today and I feel robbed :(
The game works, you just can't make an account where you can choose your name or use the normal chat. You can add the game to Steam with the key on the download page though
I am sorry to announce this, but I quit Among Us!
I just got my refund, but I might come back if they restore support for itch.io and provide some kind of assurance that the game will remain fully accessible on this platform.
I quitted Among Us because some players insulted me and I got banned.
You got really banned from the game or by some lobby hosts you got banned?
I got bullied in one server (some players said to me "ImPasta is drinking bleach", but mostly, they said to me that I'm a retard, fool, idiot, etc. I rage quitted the game.
Lobby hosts banned me >:(
mama
wtf you stole game
no this are the real devs they just published it on itch.io
They HAD published it here, they're still selling Steam keys here but the itch.io version is an "unsupported platform" now so it isn't really still published here.

how can steam be a health risk for some people?
By triggering migraines, epilepsy, vertigo and several other conditions which Valve has known it's been affecting severely in many cases since the new library update in October of 2019.
Which one do you fall under?

Friendly reminder for the devs:
Steam keys don't help paying customers who bought on itch.io because we can't use Steam and don't want the game on a platform which is a literal health hazard and has been known to be so for 18 months now.
So just by looking your one of the few who have this problem with steam.
