By the way, by "updating next monday", I think they mean when they plan to send the files to GOG. I'd expect a delay for the update to be actually released for us end users, since GOG needs to manually test, approve and package each new update given to them.

I see. I must've misread something, then. Sorry.

About the contact info, SteamDB's extension links a dev's public contact info on their products on Steam, including email when made available by the devs. And upon searching, I found the Twitter profile @TowerHunter_Erz which links in their profile info the same email address linked by SteamDB on Steam, and the Twitter profile has multiple posts related to both of the dev's games, so the contact info seemed legit.

As I said, some games still do need this approvement so if you actually read this about this specific game it still can be correct. Anyway, no need to apologize :)

Clever!

I really hope so :) One of the developers, Petri, has noticed my message on steam forums, and replied to me, that they will try to be more in time with their patches for GOG builds :)

Apologies for that! GOG version is now up to date as well (1.2.10). I'll promise to keep it up to date from now on.
" I think, you can remove it from the google sheets now :)

Tower Hunter: Erza's Trial has been updated to V2020.1.25. Very nice. :)

The Grime OST has now been released on GOG.

Also, I nearly had a heart attack when I looked at today's releases and saw "No One Lives..." but it turns out it's No One Lives in Heaven which seems to have a couple of quirks compared to the Steam version:
- As far as I can tell, Steam doesn't sell the OST, GOG does.
- According to the Steam store page, Steam customers get the "Encyclopaedia Comédica" for free with their standard version, while GOG customers need to buy the Digital Deluxe Edition (which is actually cheaper than Steam's standard edition, at least for me) or the Deluxe Edition DLC.

EDIT: Deleted the point about the Real Time DLC, since this info was based on a faulty German-language GOG store description - thanks to Ice_Mage for pointing it out!

It's at the very bottom of the description for the standard edition, and the second to last paragraph in the description for the digital deluxe edition.

Is there a list of developers/publishers who do that? When buying a particular game, I often look at both Steam and GoG - I don't mind an effective price difference (in case of sales), but as this thread and many reviews attests, some games are in objectively worse versions on one of the platforms. I do not however check other games of the publisher/dev and, anyway, games often don't get updates more as an oversight due to GoG's small market shere which I'm willing to forgive. I wouldn't want however to pay full price for a game from a company which ignores us for non-technical reasons.

Thanks for the info. I have my GOG Galaxy set to English and the store description does indeed mention the DLC in the Standard Edition. However, when I visit the store page via my browser, the language defaults to German and the German description does not include that line for the Standard Edition.

If you're looking for info on a game-by-game basis, https://www.gogdb.org and https://steamdb.info/ are a great way of comparing version numbers. If you're looking for a sort of blacklist of individual developers/publishers, I'm not aware of that, though you can take a look at the Google Docs list in the first post of this thread and sort by dev/publisher there.

- Lacks achievements. Or achievement? The Steam page only lists 1 achievement.
- Soundtrack is for sale on Steam, but not GOG. It can be bought from Bandcamp.

Weirdly, this time around the German-language store description claims the artbook is "available exclusively to GOG users" (the box underneath the logo for the demo), implying it's included in the game and not available elsewhere. So either whoever is translating these is freewheeling like crazy, or the artbook used to be included/exclusive but isn't included anymore/is still included but not exclusive anymore and they forgot to change the German store description.

I got Dry Drowning here on GOG and it does indeed include the artbook, as seen in the EXTRAS part of my download options (attached image).

8-Bit Adventures 1: The Forgotten Journey Remastered Edition is missing the bundle of the base game + OST from Steam.

Do you mean this one?
