There is no pretty way to say this, just I'll just be direct with it.
The author straight up stole one of my designs, what the fuck?
To be more specific, this one:

This is a character I designed over a year and a half ago for what was in the time meant to be my first vn project.
Some proof:
The thread I did showing her off about a year and a half ago:

Me asking for feedback about her design in the discord server. Look at the dates. If you don't believe me you can look up the messages yourself. They're on the illusion discord server

Want more proof? Sure. At some point I decided that I wanted the game to be 2art. Here are some screenshots of that.

TO THE DEV:
This one was the first character I ever designed for a game, the first character I ever commissioned and one I'm very attached to because of the moment I was going through at that point in my personal life. This character is mine. She was meant to be one of the main love interest of my game. You didn't even bother changing her a bit. Even small details like the cross pendant and the watch are there. You didn't even ask for permission. You stole her design. You have no right to use her for your game.
I am asking you to delete her from your game and any image where she is present. Im asking nicely for now since it might have been an honest mistake. I highly doubt it since you also decided to straight up lift Max from life is strange. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Remove my character from your game.

TO EVERYONE ELSE:
A lot of you probably dont give a shit about any of this and are her for the porn. That's fair, no shame on it. But for the people that care a bit about the artistry of making games, I'm asking you not to support the dev. This clearly one shady son of a bitch and you'd be wasting your money and time on a project that can't even bother designing its own characters.
If it sounds like I'm mad. I am. Hope that can be understood given the circumnstances. Thank you to anyone who took the time to read this.
If anyone has any advice on what could possibly be done if this dev doesn't do anything about it, I'd be glad to hear.
