Donating for f2p games is not a heresy tbh. It's YOUR game, you have the rights to ask money for it after all. Donating is a good way of gathering resources for the players without forcing them to pay it. People can freely play it without spnding a penny on it; yet you can help development by giving some bucks to the programmer. That's completely normal in my point of view.

Also paying him means he'll have more means to program more stuff and add things to the game (programming isn't for free, you know; computers, programs and electric power all has thier costs) and let's face it, it's better for him to use the donations to add stuff to the game than using it to buy a bunch of cheeseburgers and not giving a shit to improving the game (though he also has the right to do so).

You guys are still missing the fact that this game infringes on various copyrights such as Zelda(sprites are used) and Pokemon(sprites, gameplay, actual battle algorithms, etc.) are used on a game which makes a profit. You can't do that legally.

I love how the websites says "better then pokemon" when all you're really doing is copying pokemon.

Same battles
Same 4 move thing per monster
Heck you even just took stuff from pokemon and slightly changed them, like the moves, UV's

I actually feel sorry for anyone who would donate to that.

God forbid people take inspiration from a game and implement it into theirs. Also you try naming all those moves, shit's going to clash.

You still are not acknowledging that he is breaking copyright laws with a product that makes a profit.

I gain inspiration from video games just as much as the next indie game programmer, that doesn't mean i go around using actual graphics from those games to make my own similar game then ask for donations and place ads all over my website to make money from it. It's against copyright law.

Stop acting like I am hating on this game just to hate on it. It's breaking laws and you guys seem to support the fact he is essentially using already made assets illegally to make money. If you justify that, there is something seriously wrong with you.

Yes i said moves, Why would i list pokemon moves for designs? I apologize if english isn't your first language

[Dream Fortress]

No you weren't clear at all, you said click on the monsters which leads me to believe that if I click on them I'll see something about their designs I should be mad about.

The last few posts i was talking about the moves, You ran to the monster dex to try and prove your point. I said "click on the monsters", meaning if you click on the monsters you can see their moves. It's really not that hard to understand, again i apologize if english isn't your native language since that seems like the only way to even mess up what i said.

You also could of spent 3 seconds to scroll down after clicking on a monster and seeing the moves.

Also those aren't move clashes, they are obvious ripoffs.
