Is the Steam version same as Itch.io version?

[An Easy Target]

I bought this game on itch.io in order to have claim to two copies.

Before I cash in my Steam key, though, I need to know: Is the version here on Steam the same as the version from itch.io?

it is the same as the paid itch version. The main difference is being able to access the testing branch in the steam version, and the itch one being DRM free.

I want to believe this, but I just opened up the Steam version for the first time, and it offers a new selection screen for the different playable characters, with different skins. In the Itch version I'm playing after my purchase, only Purse is playable, and it's just the one skin.

EDIT: After this, I opened up the Itch.io version, and now there are multiple character options! I wonder if I unlocked it by beating that badger king in the lava place? In which case, Steam's version seems to have drawn from the same memory.

Even so, the below-mentioned disparity of promised updates continues, and the Steam version advertises the Purse plush while the itch.io download does not. Minor on their own, but possibly one and the same with some more important differences.

Please fill me in on if I missed something, or maybe I downloaded the wrong Windows file from itch.io. That DRM free option is exactly why I'd like to be able to get and play the latest version via itch.io.

I also just opened the itch.io version back up and its splash message promises: "Next Major Update: Items Update! April".

I think you have downloaded the wrong version. the Itch version should have 5 playable characters, none locked.

Mayhaps - but I use Windows, and on the itch.io file download page, there's only one Windows version offered, which is 70 days old as I clack this. There is a younger file there, at only 30 days old, but it's for Mac.
