It's probably just MC's mustache that's causing the tickling. Good thing he shaved it off.

After that, I have a future plan for the project, which is to give it a general polish to possibly put it on a store to sell (GOG, Steam, etc?), since I've taken care to only use products that I've acquired the rights, or products whose license is free for commercial projects. I'm going to do this more for the fact that if I don't, some son of a bitch will steal the project and try to sell it, they've already done this with HS Tutor...

Is it really how it works for Steam and similar platforms ? If you told me all Daz based games on Steam paid the rights (meaning bought the asset + maybe pay some licensing fee if it's not included) to whatever pre-made assets it's using, I wouldn't believe you. How can either Steam or the asset's creator verify that kind of things ? Is there a secret technique I'm unaware of ? I don't see how anyone couldn't just pirate any DAZ asset and use it in a game they will sell on a platform and get away with it.
For games made with Illusion software that's probably another story, but also unclear to me.
For example with HS tutor, you have no way to report the guy to the platform and take the money from his sales and become the new owner of his account, similar to a copyright claim on Youtube ?

In the case of DAZ Studio, it's unlikely that there will be any problems, but many assets are easily recognizable and I personally prefer to have all the receipts for the assets in case someone for some reason suspects that I've made illegal use of it or some crap like that. But if the author of the game has a company, then I 100% recommend buying all the assets without thinking twice, because nobody wants to have a company that is legally registered and everything, but that is infringing copyrights, the problems for these cases can be extremely severe.

In the case of games with Illusion stuff, I think it's hard for anyone to try to sell it in serious stores (although I've seen at least one case of a game copying Hunie Pop but using assets made in Koikatu being sold on Steam). The guy selling HS Tutor is an Italian who has a website dedicated to selling dozens of erotic games he finds on the Internet, translates them into Italian, and pretends to be the owner.
