I cannot fairly rate this game, as it uses Nintendo property in violation of both jam rules and international law.

lol i noticed that!...  but remember (if you saw my previous games) i made a duck life training demo?. does it violates jam rules? just to know lol

I don’t see any screenshots on your duck life training page, but I’ll quote from the jam page: “[…] assets from asset packs are allowed, provided you have the legal rights to use them in your project.” Originality isn’t a requirement, but having a valid license to use existing assets is. So like obviously you can’t go rip sprites from existing games, but you can use asset packs if you adhere to the requirements of the pack.

Sorry, I didn’t know about this rule, but I have a question: even though I didn’t take the images directly from the game, but downloaded them from a creator on itch.io, is it still against the rules? Please tell me so I don’t make this mistake again.

Generally speaking, it’s your responsibility to vet assets for legitimacy. If it’s a recognizable character, but it’s not distributed by the creator of that character, it is unlikely to be safe.

Now I understand, thank you for explaining it to me.
