Beware [Re-uploads & Scammers]


I can't believe I'm writing this, because I would never thought that it would happen to an amateur gamedev but here I am...

I discovered re-uploads of the game on other sites, usually of Version 1.0. 
I usually don't care about re-uploads, but this time is different: these uploads are without credits (even missing or with wrong\partial attributions) and I can't allow that. Of course I filed a ticket on the sites to request the credits to be put back where they belong, but still got no response on one: it looks like I can't do more damage control, at the moment, aside from writing announcements everywhere. It started to hurt a little the reputation of the game, but that's something I can put a remedy to, it's the removal of the credits that gets me really mad.

This is not a stance on pirating but please, play the game on Itchio and not on piracy sites
It's safer because the site isn't targeted by malicious ads, nobody messed with the game files to add malware in them and I can upload the builds with bug fixings. You can also find the links to all the people who directly and indirectly contributed to make the game what is today with their music, art and various assets. And also I never charge money for my games, I don't even accept donations at the moment, so if somebody is charging you money to play it be aware it's a SCAM!

Thank you for reading, and I apologize for the inconvenience ;__;
I'll be back soon with some other news and, if the laptop allows it (it's malfunctioning), a quality of life update!

Vauabeso significa que tienes éxito al menos.
