Better yet, it was basically ready for prime time. As luck would have it, engineers were quietly working on this feature. He asked Steam if it would be possible to stream directly to a game page rather than a special sale hub. That live stream was supposed to be a one-off thing - until Lowrie connected the dots. Lowrie had taken advantage of a similar system in May with the big Devolver publisher sale: The studio streamed its games directly to the sale's landing page, allowing folks to see everything in action before buying. This was an in-progress Steam feature, still being tested by a handful of beta players.

'I knew that Steam had an internal broadcasting thing for years where you could broadcast your games to your friend group. 'It did start to bug me again, I guess, because we just want people to have so much fun with this,' he said.

The ban didn't bother Lowrie again until a few weeks ago, in the run-up to the game's complete launch - fully narrated story mode and all - on January 18th.

We were able to sell it and get it out there to a larger audience.'Дespite the Twitch blackout, Genital Jousting sold well in Early Access as Free Lives continually updated the game and added new modes. And it was a bummer because it did have online play, it would've been fun to do. It's a bummer, for sure, because certainly streaming is a huge part of awareness and promoting a game and people enjoying it with their favorite streamers. 'I certainly inquired about it, but they pointed to the rules, and the rules are rules.'ДЄ Twitch representative told Lowrie Genital Jousting had sexual and adult content, and so it got the ax, simple as that. 'It's disappointing but also understandable because you have to draw some sort of line, I'm sure,' Lowrie said. His immediate reaction? 'Oh, that's a bummer.' He checked out Twitch's list of prohibited games and spotted Genital Jousting sandwiched between Dramatical Murder and Grezzo 1 & 2. The same couldn't be said for Twitch - people started tweeting Lowrie, asking if he knew the game was banned from Amazon's streaming site. Genital Jousting ended up on Steam Early Access in late 2016 and it was an immediate hit with the YouTube live-streaming community. It's a really fun game.' His contact didn't see why not, as long as the proper warnings were posted. Lowrie turned to the Steam representative and asked, 'Hey, is there any reason why this couldn't be on Steam? Because everyone's loving it and it'd be great to release. We were having a drink afterward, and we saw this on the screen and everyone's in the crowd laughing and playing this game.' 'Our guy from Steam, our primary contact from Steam, was hanging out with us just for a meeting. 'We were at GDC two years ago and we knew of Genital Jousting, and brought it to our little space at GDC and they were showing it,' Lowrie recalled.

In January, following a series of fortuitous events after the game's Twitch ban, Genital Jousting became the first title to host a live stream directly on its Steam page, penises and all. Still, the ban itself came out of nowhere, with no active outreach from Twitch, and it threw the studio's live-streaming plans slightly out of whack. Neither was Nigel Lowrie, co-founder of publisher Devolver Digital.

In short, Genital Jousting is meant to demystify the penis in an accessible, light-hearted, fully-clothed manner.Дespite the game's intentions, no one at Free Lives - the studio behind Genital Jousting and Broforce - was particularly surprised to find the game banned on Twitch. Its story mode is fully narrated, starring a penis named John as he grapples with a midlife crisis and reevaluates his priorities. It's not even really about intercourse or how silly penises look when they're flopping around a screen - it's designed to shine a spotlight on toxic masculinity and highlight the perils of a patriarchal society. However, Genital Jousting is not a violent sexual game. It's on the site's list of banned games, alongside titles like Battle Rape, The Maiden Rape Assault: Violent Semen Inferno and Suck My Dick or Die. So, no, you won't find Genital Jousting on Twitch. The penises are often clothed, it should be noted, but the gameplay makes this odd anatomy lesson very clear: One of the main mechanics has players attempt to stick a penis tip into the anus of another penis. You won't find Genital Jousting on Twitch, largely because the game is populated by a variety of brightly colored penises with X-marked anuses between their testicles.
