This release is a deliberate scope reset. SmellsLikeCodfish was always meant to be a focused archive of Portuguese video games — not a directory of studios, a follow/notification platform, or a half-built community hub on top of that. Trying to do all of those things at once was diluting the core. We are stepping back to what the project was always supposed to be — the catalogue of games — and will grow features again only when they clearly serve that goal. Several pages and tables disappear in this update; they are not coming back.
The developers directory, individual studio pages, studio claims, studio follows, the verified-developer flow, the studio metadata editor, and studio correction submissions have all been removed. Studio names still appear on every game entry as plain text. The supporting database tables (studios, studio_claims, studio_follows, studio_submissions) and their helper functions have been dropped permanently.
