[PSA] MULTIPLE Indie Gala / Groupees unused keys have been wrongfully deactivated. BEWARE THESE DEVS

6/10/2018 Edit: Current List of known games that developers have wrongfully deactivated
DO NOT GIFT/TRADE THESE. They will not work - any unused keys will now appear as duplicate.
Also, feel free to chastise any developers/publishers who steal from their customers.

Dexodonex
Mobile Astro
Pixel Arcade
Plank not included
Nearly every single game published by '8Floor'

I was redeeming a bunch of old Indie Gala gift bundles I had lying around, and realized that every single copy of Mobile Astro now fails as a duplicate key.

The developer seems to have deactivated all unused keys for Mobile Astro, although I have no idea why. Sooo just in case people have extra keys for this game they were planning on using or giving away (or just farming for cards) - your code most likely won't work. The game was in Indie Gala's Friday Slaughter and the Groupees 'Remute's Treasure' bundle.

EDIT: Annnnd same goes for Pixel Arcade, from IndieGala's VR Bundle 12. Gotta love random acts of deactivation.

EDIT2: Also Dexodonex from IndieGala's 'The Odyssey' Bundle, as well as nearly every single game published by 8floor (in multiple Indie Gala and Groupees bundles)

No longer going to do individual edits, will just add to list at top.

Mass deactivation for Pixel Arcade as well, it seems.

Unless the keys IndieGala and Groupies were selling as part of their bundles were stolen, that's an incredibly scummy and potentially illegal thing to do. I'm not sure if anyone has ever taken companies like this to court, but that's clearly theft unless they reimburse the sites they sold the keys too, and in turn those stores refunded the affected customers.

Well, I didn't buy either of them, but I still find this kind of thing deplorable.

The publisher '8Floor' also seems to be deactivating/reusing all their old bundle keys.

Plank not included joins the sad list of games that have been stolen from the users who paid money for them, from Indie Gala VR X
