Idk how to put this but... buttttttt....
I know this game was made first, but someone yoinked the idea out of nowhere.

I see so as well. I hope its the creator of this game T-T (Doubt it is). But I wouldn’t say yoinked. More like just stealing. But if the Owner of this game deploys a steam game, then the other game cant do anything.

I know it's not the creator of this game based on the update done a week ago and that game's preview being nothing alike in terms of UI. But outside from that? Functionally the same game. Instead of 1 000 000... it's 999 999 999. Which... eh.

Just found a third game in this format today: https://stripedbutterfly.itch.io/surviving-magic-academy-as-a-demon-lord

Which seems to be taking more cues from the other game than this one, ironically.

The games are similar on the surface, but in practice they play so much differently that I wouldn't even treat it as "clone with different actions" which is already perfectly serviceable as a different game imo. (It's a game obviously inspired by this one and with similar theming, but different core gameplay mechanics which means the way you actually play the two ends up being nothing alike.)

(It was posted on itch like a month ago. Apparently it got some minor updates since then, but it's hard to judge until the next major content update which will more firmly cement it as being obviously different.)
