To the Love and Deepspace Development Team,
As a long term player who has spent thousands of dollars on this game, I am so truly disappointed by your actions as a company. The cancellation of Valko was devastating, and I have been doing my part to combat this decision on the kindest, most respectful and loving way for the past 9 days.
His remove severely degrades the story, and so many, hundreds of thousands if not millions, of players know that.
Your silence as a company is also heavily disappointing. Global players make up half, if not more, of your revenue. We deserve to be heard. I hope that you’ve been able to see over the past week what we have done for the fandom as a whole. We have signed petitions, paid for billboards, named stars, adopted wolves, donated to flood victims and wildlife conservations in Valko’s name. And so much more. We have fought this decision with love, not the hate that had him removed.
And the decision to rerun Wander and Wonder, a banner that means so much to so many people, during this controversy, is devastating. I have personally been waiting for this to return for nearly two years, but the fact that it’s coming now…it’s disappointing.
I have paid for, and supported this game since the day I started playing. But now, after everything, that support has stopped. The core values I lived by while supporting this game have died.
I am not the only person that feels this way. I can confidently say that almost everyone on your international servers feels the same way.
You are destroying your company with your silence. You are destroying your image by letting hate win. I understand, fully, that hate and violence is scary and powerful. That there are real people on your side being affected by it. But I cannot stand by a company that lets hate rule over love.
My deepest condolences go to the people that created Valko. The people that created ALL the love interests that we love. But the public actions of this company as a whole, canceling a character that so many people have been advocating for, deleting core lore form the story, letting hatful actions dictate your next moves…it’s heartbreaking to say the least.
This is my plea, as a player and customer who has given thousands of dollars to this company, to reconsider your choices.
Bring Valko back.
Rerun God of Annihilation again for Zayne mains who couldn’t participate because of the boycott.
Do not rerun Wander and Wonder right now.
Fox your mistakes.
Acknowledge your wrongdoings.
Make the game more friendly to f2p players.
Commit to making free content (main story update) more frequent.
Before transparent and communicative with your audience.
If there’s things are not addressed immediately, I will no longer support or play this game.

Copium alert: Coming soon is gone because of how large the update is, Valkos code & model is already inside the system and they're just waiting for an opening to release him.
🚨‼️ ATTENTION ALL STATIONS, THIS IS THE EU SPEAKING ‼️🚨
Troops, this wasn't the result we were hoping for, but the mission ain’t over 🫡
Yes, morale is low. Yes, it hurts. But this is NOT where we give up.
Keep spreading love. Keep sharing fan art. Keep celebrating all the amazing things this fandom has created.
With everything crazy that's happened over the past few days, it's hard to believe this was ever what anyone wanted.
Valko has built an incredible fandom, and that support still matters.
So let's keep Valko trending on Weibo, on X on XHS.
Today may be shutdown day, but tomorrow he still needs a home. If they see an active, passionate fandom, there's always hope for a return.
Over🫡

⚠️ ANOTHER EXTREMELY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT, HUNTERS ♥️
I kindly ask that you read and share. This is for our wolf ♥️
🐺 Please, don't let our voices end on July 9.
One week has never been enough to define a movement. History has shown that many online protests lose momentum after only a few days. Whether intentionally or not, when a movement is limited to a single week, it becomes much easier for it to fade away.
We cannot let that happen.
Our goal has never been to spread hate toward INFOLD. Our goal has always been to stand against the prejudice that surrounded Valko's situation and to show that this character still has a community that loves him deeply.
Our greatest message has always been simple:
Love is stronger than hate.
Look at what this community has already accomplished.
We raised donations to help people affected by floods.
We supported wolf sanctuaries in Valko's name.
Fans dedicated a star to him as a symbol that his light will continue to shine.
We organized cosplay tributes, gathered at events, created countless artworks, videos, edits, music, and heartfelt letters.
This movement has inspired kindness instead of anger.
That is what makes it different.
If we stop after only one week, all of this risks becoming just another temporary hashtag. But if we continue peacefully, respectfully, and consistently, we show that our love is real and that this community is here to stay.
We are not asking anyone to spread hate.
We are asking everyone to continue spreading love.
Let's keep sharing Valko.
Let's keep using the hashtags.
Let's keep supporting one another.
And let's continue until there is an official announcement that gives the community a clear answer.
Love doesn't expire after seven days.
I know it's tiring, even distressing, but look at everything we've already done, honestly... I'm proud of you all.

@Love_Deepspace Genuinely so sad to see the way you're handling this. I don't actually think you could've made worse decisions if you tried. The game I've loved so dearly now feels totally tainted, I'm not even bothering downloading this shit. Keep your crappy reruns. #BringBackValko
CN GIRLS HAVE SPOKEN THEY ARE DEPENDING ON GLOBAL TO KEEP DISRUPTING THE SPACE! THEY NEED OUR VOICES TO PUSH BACK AGAINST INFOLD'S ACTIONS!

A popular mobile game is at the center of a fan campaign after its developer canceled the introduction of what would've been the game's sixth love interest.
More than 46,000 Love and Deepspace players have signed a petition calling on game developer Infold to release Valko as originally planned.
Do you want Valko released? Let us know in the comments. ���️

@Love_Deepspace The continued posting like you aren't facing enormous backlash over this dumbass decision is CRAZY. LISTEN TO GLOBAL FANS FOR ONCE. #BringBackValko
What do you MEAN you've removed him for good 😢 I'm a day 1 player but how are we supposed to support any company that caters to the most INSANE people and rewards that kind of petulant behaviour OVER A VIDEOGAME CHARACTER #BringBackValko
Petition to Reconsider Valko's Cancellation
Dear Love and Deepspace Development Team,
@Love_Deepspace
First of all, thank you for listening to your community and for being willing to communicate with us so openly. We appreciate the effort and sincerity behind your letter.
However, we respectfully ask you to reconsider the decision to cancel Valko.
Many of us have been waiting for the sixth Love Interest for a very long time. From the very beginning of the game, there have been six Stellactrum colors, leading many players to believe that one day all six would become complete Love Interests. Valko's reveal wasn't just an announcement—it was the fulfillment of something we had been anticipating for a long time.
After seeing his trailer, learning about his personality, and catching glimpses of his role in the story, we became genuinely excited to meet him. We want to experience his journey, discover his story, and see how he grows alongside the other Love Interests. Please don't take that opportunity away from us.
We understand that some members of the community had concerns, and we respect that every player deserves to be heard. At the same time, we hope you will also hear the voices of those of us who were excited for Valko and wanted to welcome him into Linkon City.
We believe that the work already poured into his character by your writers, artists, animators, composers, voice actors, and developers deserves to be experienced rather than abandoned. Valko is more than just a new banner—he represents years of creativity, passion, and dedication from your team.
If necessary, we would rather wait longer for his release than lose him forever. Delaying his debut or adjusting future plans would be far easier to accept than cancelling him completely.
Please reconsider this decision. Let Valko's story be told. Let us meet the sixth Love Interest we have been waiting for, and allow Linkon City to continue growing with all of its planned characters.
Thank you for taking the time to read our message and for considering the feelings of every part of your community.
With respect,
The Players Who Still Believe in Valko
#BringBackValko
I'm so heartbroken now, totally out of words. This is insane, to cancel the release of a LI so close to his debut.
I'm so sorry Valko, you deserved better and will always have a place in my heart.
@Love_Deepspace How is cancelling Valko the solution you guys came up with 💀 so many people were redownloading and excited for him, he was the most interesting part of the update. This is such a dumb decision actually.
