Your daily Love & Deepspace Delulu! Hop on! Cheri 🍒 - she/her - on earth - I think in lyrics 🎶 - not a writer, just a mess🤌🏼🥀 -

[cherimoyatea]

Hello there, nice to meet you!

This blog is my personal space to ramble about anything related to my ongoing obsession with Infolds, Love and Deepspace and to keep my main blog organized.

I hopped on my train to Delulutown around February, during the Valentine's event, and have been playing every single day since then.

Rafayel is my main LI so I will invest in his cards during the events but occasionally go for the other LI's cards as well ✨

Let's connect and stay nice!

🚨TUMBLR WOLF PACK HEED MY CALL 🚨

the antis have started to make their way to this very platform. The protocol is the same. DO NOT ENGAGE. JUST BLOCK AND MOVE ON. IF NEEDED ALSO REPORT.

STAY FROSTY TEAM AND GODSPEED 🫡

Valko’s pv song is still on Spotify and Apple Music but they’ve changed the image his face is gone 🤔

I don‘t know, lovely.

For me it‘s still like it always has been.

I bought the title via iTunes, since I‘m not a streaming fan.

And I added screenshot how it looks in my Apple Music App

[cherimoyatea]

I use YT Music and they indeed changed it there :(

[irandial]

Okay, hot tea!!

Apparently, the beef with SW is true and Tencent is the big Villain here, trying to bring PPg/Infold down!

Link to the related twt post here

And apparently, the hype that we as fandom have now created globally, helps infold indeed to fight against it.

If this is true, holy moly…. Then the war isn’t over yet and has only just begun…

But that also means we have to buckle for a longer wait, maybe? I don’t know… I‘m just confused now 😵‍💫

But I think that the government is now on it, is indeed something good? Because they already made that new law.

Oh my… I hope we are not the victims of this business bashing 😔

Edit: new link with translation of screenshots

…so it appears the new link doesn’t work now either, but never fear, this sister has been busy! I failed to screenshot the original tweet but here are their attached photos:

@cairoblair sorry for sending you a link that no longer works, but here are the screenshots.

Did you forget who the hunter is?

[seraphineash]

CN GIRLIES ARE CALLING HIM UGLY? HIM? FUCKING HIM?

[theladygames]

ATTENTION HUNTERS, OUR VOICES ARE STRONG!

Please don’t lose hope or momentum in the #bringvalkoback movement!

We need to keep making Valko trend on all social media sites. The hashtags in comments are great but it is more helpful when we all make our own posts using the same set of hashtags all at once. If you see this post, this is your sign to post something and use the hashtag #bringvalkoback! Regardless of your platform size, you have a voice and we need you to use it so that we have a better chance at successfully getting Valko back.

We need to avoid fighting amongst each other. We need to be engaging with each other’s posts. Share it, tag other creators and bring in as many people as we can to help us in this! Avoid feeding into the rumors floating around that are meant to make things feel hopeless, we can all come together and make this happen!

[cairoblair]

THIS JUST IN!!

Infold has completely removed ALL posts related to the 6.0 Version. Not just Valko—all of it.

THIS IS SPECULATION: Could they be postponing the entire version update? Or re-announcing it once they’ve addressed the protest?

Full PM report coming later!

[irandial]

Information on global black out day for LaDs:

[cherimoyatea]

Logged out for a day to spend some well-deserved quality time with my bestie, and I'm now trying to catch up on the whole Valko situation.

So far, I've gathered that we're waiting for Infold to share some updates...? And that posters of not just Valko have been removed from Infold's HQ?

What's bubbling under the surface, fam? 👀

[calebs-slavicgirl]

what is happening as of this hour

the situation surrounding love and deepspace and valko has reached the state/governmental level in china.

here is what is happening right now:

1. the decision to delete calko was a panic-driven, spontaneous move.

just 3 days ago, infold was planning to keep him. however, haters flooded government regulatory bodies with complaints and even brought manure and funeral wreaths to the office. in a state of pure panic, the studio decided to "sacrifice" the character to save the entire project.

2. the issue has reached beijing.

the game has received an official warning. however, the shanghai municipal government (where the developers are based) is currently desperately defending the studio before beijing. this is because love and deepspace pays massive taxes into the city’s budget (in 2025 alone, the game generated nearly $380,000,000!). shanghai does not want to lose such a cash cow over internet trolls. everything will be decided in the coming days.

3. the chinese fandom has started a rebellion.

right now, cip players (who have collectively spent over 4 million RMB on the game) are coordinating a late-night siege of weibo's trending topics. tomorrow, they plan to hold a PROTEST with fresh flowers in front of the infold office to prove to the authorities that reasonable, paying players vastly outnumber the haters!

4. infold is in a panic, holding emergency meetings.

summer events are already being canceled or postponed on the japanese account — everything is falling apart because they had no plan b. the official account is losing thousands of followers every minute.

u can also read a chinese player's thoughts on this matter here

if you have even the slightest desire to help, you can do so by following these steps ‼️

HOW CAN WE HELP RIGHT NOW?

we need to support both the chinese fandom. we must flood official chinese media outlets and customer support with emails stating that the game does NOT violate any laws, that valko is clean, and that his cancellation is purely the result of a harassment campaign by haters

✉️ email text:

Dear Editors / Support Team,

I am writing to express my deep concern over the targeted cyber-harassment campaign against the game "Love and Deepspace" and its character, Valko. As global players, we want to emphasize that "Love and Deepspace" strictly adheres to international standards and corporate compliance. The game does not violate any laws. The recent wave of negative rumors was entirely fabricated by a radical group of anti-fans who used cyber-bullying tactics to force a scandal. By abruptly canceling Valko due to this malicious pressure, the developers have harmed millions of legitimate global consumers who have heavily invested in the game. We respectfully urge the regulatory authorities to recognize that the game is a compliant, legally sound cultural product. We request that the malicious rumors be dismissed, and the character Valko be safely restored to the servers.

Thank you for your time.

Valko Drive!!

Do not let them forget!! Let them know we’re still fighting for him!!

[cairoblair]

hi again everyone. i know emotions are still running high, and everyone is working to get Valko back, but a few reminders:

sleep. eat. drink water. do NOT stare at your phone all day. go get some sun. read. watch your favorite show. players all around the world are working towards the same goal. breathe. it’ll be okay.

i love you, take care of yourselves <3

[cherimoyatea]

“already fell in love” you’ve known him for 9 days … and spent a total of $0 on him you’ll be alright

Thankfully, emotional investment isn't measured by how much money you've spent, Annonie.

It's true that we didn't know him for very long, but part of the disappointment comes from having the chance to get to know him taken away from us and how Infold is dealing with it now.

[cherimoyatea]

It genuinely feels like someone broke up with me and left me stuck in that awful space between hoping they'll eventually realize we can still make this work... and mourning them because, deep down, I already know they've made up their mind and they're never coming back.

I hate how I keep anxiously refreshing their page to see whether they've taken Valko's content offline. Because as long as it's still there, there's hope. And once it's gone... there'll be a sense of finality.

I hate this so much right now *sighs*

I'm going to bed.

Actionable Ideas for Challenging Infold Over Valko's Release

A lot of LADS fans are really upset over Infold's decision to shelve Valko. This is my attempt at creating action items for fans wanting to do something but are unsure where to start.

Here are some methods for giving Infold feedback:

Sign this petition and this petition

Reply to their posts on X (Twitter)

Comment on their Instagram posts

Comment on their Facebook posts

Comment on their YouTube videos

Join their official Discord Server and voice your dissatisfaction

Leave a 1-star review on the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store

Email Customer Service at [email protected]

Complete the survey in the Love and Deepspace app by selecting the box/pencil icon in the top right corner of the home screen

"Suggest" Valko's release in the Love and Deepspace app by going to Settings > More > Support, then select "Suggestion"

(If you want to be slightly passive-aggressive) On 9 July, go to Settings > More > Support, then select "Bug Report" and fill out the report stating that the promised Valko content is missing

Remember: if we want Infold to listen to us, we MUST remain civil and demonstrate our affection for the game. I highly doubt they will be intimidated by non-CN players, which means we are held to a different standard. What is effective for them will not be effective for us.

With that said, remember these do's and dont's:

Do repeatedly submit/post/send your feedback over the next few weeks. Email them today, in a few days, on 9 July, and in the weeks after. Post on their social media every day. Overwhelm them and show them this isn't going to go away over a few free Wishes.

Do prepare to CONTINUE submitting/posting/sending your feedback over the next few months. Infold needs to see that we won't let this issue go. Schedule emails to be sent to them over the next 3 months. Draft X posts today and copy and paste them to post in a few months time. Draft your long-form in-app feedback in preperation for the update and the upcoming banners. Create reminders to check and comment on their posts weekly. Don't let them get comfortable. Be a dog with a bone (lol).

Do maintain a polite tone in your feedback (even when you are issuing a threat like leaving the game).

Do specify your current disappointments, long-term criticisms, and expectations for the future of the game should you continue to play.

Do clearly isolate your long-term issues with the game from the current issue of Valko's release. Make it clear that those issues are not resolved by delaying or permanently canceling Valko's debut.

Do talk positively about whatever you can (ie. enjoying other LIs, enjoying the content of the Main Story itself, appreciating the worldbuilding, etc). This may feel difficult, but it demonstrates that you are a passionate player. Infold can assume that a player so invested in the game would need something drastic to push them to leave.

Don't use profanity.

Don't reference CN players.

Don't bring up Infold's past mistakes. We need to stay focused on the current issues.

Don't criticize anything about Valko's teased content. This one may be unpopular, I know. If Infold is pulling back Valko's release, I don't think it's likely that they will be willing to invest any more time and money into his development. If they continue to get more and more criticisms about him and don't care to change anything about him, they will never release him. I'm not minimizing any fan's concerns; I'm suggesting we choose a priority.

If you are unsure where to start, here are some talking points:

Express your excitement over Valko (bonus points if you give reasons why). Did you come back from a long hiatus for him?

Express your disappointment over not having Valko in the game. How will it impact your enjoyment of the game?

Describe how you prepared for his anticipated arrival. • In-game (farm for dias, bought packs, etc) • On your devices (created storage space, bought a new device, etc) • Financially (budgeted for buying packs upon his release, etc)

Describe how you engaged in fandom around Valko. Did you create fanart, fanfiction, or other fanworks? How much were you consuming fanworks showcasing him? Demonstrating how beloved he was before any real content of his being released indicates a warm reception if/when he is released.

What are the current issues you experience with the game? Be specific. Describe exactly how they impact your gameplay. Suggest a concrete way those issues could be resolved. Assert that Valko's release being postponed or canceled will not resolve these issues.

Express concern for the changes to their planned story arc his absence would create. Question if those changes would be as enjoyable as their original plan.

(If you're feeling up to it) Acknowledge the amount of time, effort, and money that must have gone into creating Valko. Let them know it would disappoint you to see it go to waste.

Infold made a terrible decision. We need to take action and let Infold know that a large portion of the LADS fanbase wants Valko to be released at some point. Let's try to remain positive where we can, engage in positive fandom, and do our best to make our voices heard by Infold.

Feel free to copy this email

To Infold Games,

We are writing to you today as a deeply concerned and disappointed community regarding the official cancellation of Valko from Love and Deepspace. The news has sent shockwaves through the entire fandom, and we feel compelled to address the company directly because we refuse to sit back and watch such an incredible character be phased out. Valko brought a completely unique energy, a fascinating dark charm, and a thrilling dynamic to the universe you have built. The immediate and overwhelming outcry across social media proves just how amazing he was and how much the player base wants him back.

What makes this decision so incredibly difficult for us to accept is the way his character was promoted to the community. Infold spent significant time and resources featuring him in official livestreams and dedicated videos, naturally generating massive hype and encouraging the fandom to invest heavily in his presence. To abruptly pull the plug after using these platforms to integrate him into our experience feels like a complete disservice to player engagement. You cannot showcase a character so prominently, witness the fanbase rally behind him with such passion, and then simply take him away after we have already supported the content.

We are formally urging Infold Games to look at the unified response from your community and reconsider this decision. The players who log in every day, support your streams, and love this game are asking you to listen to our feedback. We want Valko back, and we expect a company that values its audience to respect the time and emotional investment we pour into your world. Please, do the right thing for your player base and bring Valko back to Love and Deepspace.

Sincerely,

The Deepspace Hunters Community

[cherimoyatea]

Spread the word! Let's try and show Infold that we are louder than bullies!!! 🗣️🗯️
