@matrix ah okay so it's less that it was developed as ragebait and more that it was promoted as ragebait. looking at that steam page it felt to me like the goal was to get it taken off of steam to cause a bit of an uproar and drive sales through itch, where they are able to get more money for it anyway.
@beardalaxy I don't think so. The Steam page was written as ragebait, but the game existed long before Steam. Seems like someone's first porn VN.
