Edit: I have since played Red Pearls of Borneo and it is spectacular. It has every right to stand alongside Obra Dinn, Roottrees, and other greats of this genre. I do not believe that the same person who created that incredible game would have made this game out of anything other than a love for the genre and a desire to tell great stories.To the game's author: I'd like to apologize for jumping to conclusions. I am deeply wary of the usage of AI in artistic and creative endeavours and I allowed my wariness to bias me against what I'm sure is a delightful project. Please continue to share your art with the world.
I've left my original comment below intact to preserve the context of the comment section, but please know that I no longer agree with what I wrote.
Anyone enjoying this should just play Type Help instead
To say that this is "inspired" is laughable. You've fully stolen the primary gimmick of that game down to the naming convention of the files.
How shameless do you have to be to fully steal someone's game, sloppily rework it with AI, and then release it as if it's a new product?
If this is the future of indie gaming, the future is looking bleak.
