    Kind of an ironic measure from people who ripped essentially their entire gameplay loop off of earlier games like Game Dev Story.

      Perhaps, but that’s how humanity works. We always copy and slightly iterate on things others have created. It’s one of our biggest strengths.

        Ideally, we actually improve them before whining that someone else might be using a copy of the thing we copied, though.

          Game development is messy. You can do everything right and still end up with a game that is less fun than the one that it’s inspired by. It’s still solid though and the more grounded and realistic spin is not a terrible idea.
