For those not too sure about what I'm talking about, let me provide some reference and summarize the whole issue for you.

https://steamcommunity.com/app/453800/discussions/0/2741975115068720229/

>blatantly stealing art from Persona
>for some reason it's coming out on Steam
>devs can't really defend this shit at all
>everyone knows they're blatantly doing it

This is fucking retarded, especially considering how asshurt one of the devs seem to be to start saying this kind of shit.

>>377196207
Who, pyrofish?
I banned him for three days because he kept throwing the art thread off topic. It only led to him attacking others.
Anyways, updates:
Spencer is fixing portrait art and such, if you guys have any suggestions you would like to throw at him (one's that would actually help the game outside of the art style).
Also, if you are confused on anything, go ahead and ask. Fags like these >>377196549

More confused than anything considering people here were making fun of him for being chinese and calling him a chink. Also I'm just a friend of Spencer, I encouraged him to make the game standalone. If you want someone to blame for MA being changed, blame me.

I wouldn't have minded Pyro posting those images, but she posted multiple times in multiple threads. I even said in the ban message to keep it in one thread instead of spamming it. I don't mind the images posted.

This. If I am arguing about video games -
or, heck, about anything, really - on any website or social media network that is not 4chan, I do NOT want to know that you regularly post on 4chan. Keep that shit to yourself, motherfucker!

So if anywhere outside of 4chan I catch you quoting as though you were trying to greentext, I WILL call you a faggot and relentlessly call you names rather than continue engaging in argument with you; because you do not possess the intelligence and self-awareness necessary to hide your habit of regularly browsing 4chan a secret as nobody wants to know about that shit, and as such I immediately refuse to consider you as my intellectual equal and thusly you deserve all the insults and abuse that you get.

I think you don't know what tracing means. Of course there are diffrences. Its still traced.

Because it is on Steam. Thats an important difference. Some chinese game that doesn't even see western releases is one thing. Some chinese game thats released on Steam with the dev being around the next corner able to be called out for his shit, and his drones("Father") actually coming in these threads saying "Its NOT TRACING!", is a different thing.

This is the explanation I wanted, thank you.

>read the thread before you post then.
Fuck that noise.

>>377203137
I do see your point, but you're wrong about shit like this being china only.
Freedom Planet is an example of this. The game has its own art assets, but the straight ripping off of sonic games (Since it was a sonic fangame to begin with) is painfully obvious.

Same goes with Stardew Valley.

I hardly play indie games, so I can't really list any more than that though.

>>377203275
The problem is that this has basically become a general.

>>377203409

>stardew valley
You're missing the point by a mile here faglord. Those are "xy-clones" or "genre entries". Much like Hollow Knight is a metroidvania.
But more importantly, this very game we're talking about here, has started as a Hotline Miami fangame, and thats when we still had positive threads about it. Because there's nothing wrong about that(he even got the blessing of the HM devs) So your point is retarded and moot.

No, the thing started when he switched it all up to become a Persona/HM hybrid. Which pissed some off but was nothing special. And then it really took off when he literally traced the art down to a tee.

>If you're going to pick something apart, then explain why.
I guess you have either never played HM/SV or Sonic/FP

Hope you've all flagged the game and left a comment! I just did :^)

False. You can trace a face, while still drawing your own hair.

Good argument. Glad to know you don't know anything about how competition used to work.

There was a time when all fps were called Doom clones though.
>>
>>377203894
See
>>377203834


FP was literally doing the same thing that this project was doing until the hired an actual artist. And even still, it looks like a damn sonic game.

SV is its own can of worms. That shitty game was just a cash-in on HM fans.

Which is still tracing. Where is the argument here?

>>377204217
FP didn't trace any art. Neither did Stardew Valley. But I guess "farming game" constitutes a rip off for you.
>>
>>377198103
Basically an indie dev stole assets from a lot of games, got caught and they called his bullshit, threatened to sue the people who posted the proof of stealing in reddit, to make himself look like a victim he faked his account getting hacked which got discovered really fast and shitstorm after shitstorm after that in steam forums and ended up banning himself in an attempt to get pity from others which backfired pretty fucking badly.

That gameplay can be "traced" as well. It doesn't all have to be about art.

>>

What? He seems to be at about the average intelligence level of a /v/ poster.
>>
>>377204684
He literally has never been here before his drones pointed out to him that /v/ is shitting on his game. 10 days later and he obviously tries very hard to calm /v/ by acting like he's a regular shitposter. Compare that screenshot to other things he wrote in the past and you see it clearly.

I'm not saying he's an oldfag or that he understands the ''''''''''''''''''culture''''''''''''''''''''' of /v/. I'm saying he's about as intelligent as a regular /v/ poster.
