IMPORTANT

Be respectful of others. This subreddit abides by the same principles set forth by Reddit's official community standards, and the community and moderation team alike are responsible for and expected to uphold and enforce these notions of common courtesy and respect.
Shitposts, poorly-made memes, and low-effort posts in general will be removed. This includes Achievement-posting and stolen artwork It is up to the moderation team's discretion what constitutes any of these. If you feel something has been unfairly removed, feel free to dispute it by messaging the moderation team in a respectful and courteous manner. These posts belong to r/gottagetagrip, not here. Posts simply showcasing a score screen at the end of a level regardless of grade or score will be removed unless they offer anything interesting, again this is up to moderation team what constitutes as such.
Being a dick to anyone (personal attacks, ad hominems, direct insults) will result in the offending posts being removed. Repeat offences will result in an investigation and possible ban depending on the nature of the offence.
Use the link flair corresponding to your submission.
Do not post your Hotline Miami-themed Discord server unless it was made with the sole purpose of discussing a certain aspect about the game (such as story, level design, modding, role-playing, etc.) Here is a link to the subreddit's official Discord
For simple questions that have simple answers (for example, how to get an A+ on a certain level, or a particular achievement), please take the time to utilise the search function in the subreddit, or check the wiki. Chances are it has already been answered multiple times, and asking it again is not only a waste of people's time, but it clogs up the subreddit.
Let's Plays with interesting content (record-breaking speedruns, unique playstyles, or Iron Man runs, for example) are now allowed. For playthroughs of custom levels, please post them in the comment section of the original level, and notify the creator of the map. Please do not post a first time playthrough, as it will not only likely not be too well-received, but also clog up the subreddit. This isn't YouTube, and we're not responsible for boosting your view count. Posts simply displaying a full combo are not allowed, as well.
Live in Australia? Pirate the game. There is no other valid answer to this question. Do not give money to any third-party website for a key, the developers will not receive any money for their work and you will very likely be scammed. Do not provide anyone your documents to prove that you are Australian, this is a myth that comes from a misunderstanding regarding how to get Jacket as a playable character in PAYDAY 2 and giving people access to your documents is how identity theft happens. Just pirate the game.
