You're saying that since the artist's work, which they put effort into on their own accord, is freely available...it's okay to steal it and essentially resell it? That is drastically worse than what this website does. I'm not trying to say that F95 is right by anymeans to relieve profits from developers, some shitty, some not. But saying that it's hypocritical to attack this game is genuinely an insane rational.I mean...stealing is stealing lol. Also if we go by your logic of which is worse, we'd be worse. A game dev using an artist's free work isn't taking any money from the artist because their art is freely available whether the dev makes a profit or not from its use. Posting someone's paid game here is taking money from the dev, because people are downloading from here rather than from the dev.
Js, it's a super hypocritical to attack this game on that. We're all pirates taking money from devs easily lmao. I think the points about poorly cropped artwork tho are valid. I will say i've played this one before (Not the paid version) and the art and scenes get better the further in you get. That picture of the fairy is the only one i've seen that's like that.
The developer is actively profiting hundreds of dollars monthly to steal art work, some made as a commission for use in other commercial or readily available public mediums, while having zero permission to do so. Just because you aren't actively taking money from their pocket doesn't make it somehow better that they are just stealing art for profit. The major difference is that we, here on F95, are not profiting from actual, literal theft. That developer is actively making pretty large sums of money monthly for stealing. We are not making money from stealing. We are preventing a pirate from making money. I cannot fathom how you compared someone profiting from theft to someone distributing content for free with no further incentive other than to share it.

I really hope you're just baiting for attention. I'd rather fall for it than believe that you stand by what you're saying.
Edit: They made an account just to white knight this game. We found either the dev, or a supporter.
