Robert Yang Launches 4-Game Radiator Forever on Steam as "Too Gay" Flagging Hides It From 99%

Summary
Radiator Forever launched free on Steam and Itch as an "ongoing re-remaster" collection, debuting with four Robert Yang games and more additions planned over time.
Steam reviewers flagged the compilation for "frequent nudity and sexual content," which Yang says effectively shadowbans it from 99% of users unless they manually enable mature-content preferences.
UK players also face an 18-plus age check for Valve-tagged sexual content, while Itch has geoblocked the UK under the Online Safety Act, further limiting access.
Yang ties the visibility fight to a broader 2025 crackdown in which payment processors and storefronts pressured adult-game platforms, saying queer and political games are being hit harder than mainstream titles.
The rollout will continue later this year with The Tearoom and Pool Day, while Cobra Club may not join until 2027 or 2028 because it needs a deeper overhaul.
