Actually is a very good question, something I been thinking about myself, which is why I choose to go with HTML 5 but even that isn't full proof and thankfully I got the knowledge to use HTML5 instead of Ren'py or Unity. However, as others have said, if someone is determined enough they will always get your game. Putting up roadblocks is a good thing and making it a bit more difficult doesn't hurt you though, so no harm in asking and trying but sadly it's like trying to get blood from a stone to fully 100% secure something.I know. I said in my post that I am aware it isnt possible to entirely stop but I want some ideas to make it more difficult/inconvenient so that it deters most people from trying. I am well aware that nothing can stop it fully guys.
Didn't know Runey managed to pull something off, must have missed that in this thread but have been super busy. Runey got his game taken down?Make the patreon button (assuming you have one) part of the main menu background (So not a simple button that can be deleted), this way even if they get it, you will still get visibility.
Otherwise wait for that to happen and then file a DMCA takedown like runey did.

I told them I was the developer of HH and they had two options. Give me 90% of their income made from my game, or take it down. (The first option was there simply to make the second seem way more appealing)Runey Since many ppl do not seem aware as they have not been following the thread, and some of them might be interested in doing the same as you did, could you update the main page with your story detailing how you got your game down from that website?
Hey there,I told them I was the developer of HH and they had two options. Give me 90% of their income made from my game, or take it down. (The first option was there simply to make the second seem way more appealing)
He's just some kid in his mother's basement. He got scared. He didn't even protect his identity. Since then, however, he seems to not care. I know some people have gone to him with a DMCA threat, and he just told them they have no proof of being the creator.Hey there,
Did you had any legal documents to prove that or did they take your word for it?
I guess the next step would be to go to his hosting company then?He's just some kid in his mother's basement. He got scared. He didn't even protect his identity.

Well, when they filled their netblock entry, they explicitly added some remarks fields to point to their abuse e-mail. It's rare enough to expect it to be responsive and try it. For those interested, the domain isI guess the next step would be to go to his hosting company then?
