LcdDem is a game made by Koronba realesed in January, 26 2010 as an open-source freeware.

In April 2013, Koronba posted a bizarre message on the official site asking fans to forget about LcdDem and to remove any content related to it. They asked not to share it or even speak of it. It is not known why they chose to do this. It has been speculated that the game reminds them of something they would like to forget.

This game feels like a distant cousin of yume nikki and I love it!

Keep up the good work!

If u dont know the air surrounding this game, this is a repost of lcddem an old yume nikki fangame, which is made by a (possibly former) mysterious musician and gamedev who is not the person that posted it to itch. If you dont know abt them and want to, start with this. Do not say their name in public forums the author of the game hated attention and we like to respect it.

Well I do understand that Koronba does not like to be reminded of his work online, but when you release something in the public domain you should acknowledge beforehand the consequences of releasing your work publicly as freeware.

It is a shame for such a decently made game, like LcdDem, to be forgotten.

Despite all said, if Koronba wants the game to be removed, I have no issue whatsoever to comply with his request.

maybe it would be for the best, but it would also suck if the one mainstream copy was taken down.
