Gee that title screen looks familiar. It's almost like we made it 4 years ago.

BTW all of those assets belong to Betatronic so expect to hear from him soon ;)

Oh my, caring enough to not PM but not caring enough to C&D :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Really, Alex.

I'm glad I never believe you when you say things.

I painted that title background by hand, and made the logo from scratch.
I have no words for how furious this makes me.

This is the last straw. I'm not listening to any more of your excuses, Alex.

Guys, go to the properties of the .buf file and unblock it's security.

EDIT: That didn't work sadly. :c
Here's a preview of my fangame btw in it's debug stage: https://gyazo.com/fa121df50b0472663f3fd8fc92f98cae

Actually, this is my last straw as well.

As it is, you're done more bitching than making yourselves useful. I made a mistake and released my engine with the menu graphics intact - because I sorta kinda forgot about them after my weeks of focusing on other aspects of the engine. Well shit, I must be the scum of the earth. A lying, untrustworthy shitstain who can't keep his word. Burn me at the stake, will you?

Yes, we know you made the title screen. Nobody here has ever claimed otherwise.
You're going to get your jolly old credit where it's due. Until then, here you go:


It's fucking beautiful, isn't it? How nobody wins in the end? How you're left with a dead fangame and I'm left with a shitty title screen? What you don't realize is that I could very well shit on everything you say and just go back to using your graphics. Nothing is stopping me except for myself. Believe it or not however, I actually respect your work and am willing to listen to what you have to say. Next time, though, you should say it with a little bit more tact.

Wait, Physix, your name is Alex?
By the way, can I make a title screen for your engine?
Just make sure to credit me.

Betatronic

I don't see the need to show any tact to someone who knowingly used assets from a project that wasn't even public in the first place, Alex. I'm glad you've chosen not to 'shit on what we said' because otherwise we'd have to take this issue a number of steps further.

I told you not to use anything from our project, and to do it yourself. You made the choice to keep going with it. Honestly, it's not about credit anymore.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
"I do not want you to use anything we made, at all, for anything."

If the graphics in your engine look like shit as a result of us not allowing this, then too bad. Learn to stand on your own two feet and make your own work. Maybe after a couple of months of staring at pixels and meticulously animating each frame, you'll appreciate why we're so pissed about this.

And as for making ourselves 'useful,' we don't work together. We're busy with unrelated projects as it is. We never did this stuff for your benefit in the first place.

Why don't you come clean? How did you even get our work in the first place? Who gave it to you?

Dude, you do realize me and Physix are friends on Skype, right? Also, I allow him to use any of my content for his games/videos as long as he credits me.
Just leave Physix be.

SChase, shut the fuck up lmao.

Nobody gave it to me. I won't tell you anything else.

This discussion will never end. Have the mods step in already.

We're not referring to you, Chase.
If you wanna offer for him to use your work, that's entirely your choice. He stole from us, though.

So you're a hacker then? You at least readily admit that this was not given to you, and taken without permission.
Good to know.

Physix isn't even a fucking hacker.
also juicy colors ftw: https://gyazo.com/a1a60d1b9a806d4a3a8cdc2353a75256

We never made these assets public. There's very few other options for how he got these pieces. Judging by what he has, though, it looks like he tore apart a executable. There's still some things he shouldn't have access too.

Also that's a beautiful logo, bud.

Ok, this ends, NOW. Whether accidental or not, Physix, your engine does contain works that do not belong to you. Please ensure that you are not distributing these works in further releases or screenshots on this site, or you will be banned, permanently, including any and all new accounts you may create. It is unfortunate that we are at this point, but it cannot continue like this any more. I will not have this community be a place for people to blatantly steal and redistribute assets.

Looks like it's time to change your "Other" info to "former memeber of the Metroid Construction forum, pal.
