Well on F95zone the person is not really pretending to be you! The uploader mentions you as developer, links to your Itch.io and patreon. And you can go on f95zone and say "Hey this is my game" and the mods give you ownership over the forum threat of your game. (If i remember correctly) :3

ya f95zone tends to be safeish still dont know if they changed anything but id assume its just a archive release that way if debtors goes down for some reason theres still a copy out there

F95zone is just a place where people share games, most often what gets shared there are locked paid content. They don't charge you and they try to scan every file before it gets uploaded, if any gets through they always anounce it and remove the files in a matter of minutes to an hour.  If you like just contact one of the mod and they'll give you complete ownership of the thread

Ok. But debtors are free to play. Why to steal it in a first place xD 

If I post it on itch exclusively its maybe I have my reasons.

It's not "stealing", it's more of spreading the game to other people. Not everyone uses or is able to use itch.io, or if they do aren't even able to find it. It's an incredibly wide spread thing done to pretty much everything.

Thanks

But i don't want copies xD i keep all backups in case its deleted. I mean why someone just publishing it on websites I dont  have good opinion about xD maybe it would be good idea to ask first.

true but people are people not everything makes sense


truth is i always support the devs but sometimes people have concerns or want to get the newest build for free

idk how i personally feel because it does feel bad not getting the latest version but i get why devs do it they need money and its a insentive to buy it

(1 edit)

Yes. But i release the game for free on day 1. No paywalls. So i dont understand their motovation. 

Like how cheaper can I make it if people can play the newest build immediately on the day it's ready? XD

Also, Merry Christmas :3

i will mention that some of these sites probly have a blacklist system where devs can request their games be banned from their sites might be smart to reach out to them and just be ready to prove your the real dev of course they need to make sure you own debtors

Thanks. That would be rather easy to prove it I guess xD

Yea they are not like pretending to be him or steal their game. F95zone it's more like a alternative website so users can download their favorite games and of course give credits at the developer. As well that any moment this game can be removed here on Itchio as well on Patreon, so it's better that the dev have a more options. I also agree that they should give the ownership to him and I believe they can do that. Leo Nois have to create his own account there and then try to contact the person that make the thread so he can give Leo Nois the ownership. As for the other websites I don't know them so I don't know what to say about them

could be smart of the dev to reach out and upload their version this way the real version dont need to be some virus potentaly

Ok true. Thanks.

I dont mean F95 only. Look at otehrs. People are blaming me the game is not working in a browser version on a gamecore if i never made a briwser vesion in the first place xD
