Man_In_The_Purple_Hat Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Im not sure where to post this so i figured the general discussion board would be ok, sorry if I'm wrong! but I wanted to let TIS know that this new game on steam (story of the survivor) using your item sprites and I'm 100% sure they dint ask you and nor are they giving any credit. here's the link to the game, watch the trailer and you'll see what I mean.http://store.steampowered.com/app/440950/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxZeraphinexX Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Just checked that out on http://www.indiedb.com/games/story-of-the-survivor and yupp looks like a lot of item spirits are in there from PZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxZeraphinexX Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 O.o just read again and the description sounds just like PZ Story of the Survivor is an action RPG that takes place during a zombie apocalypse. Surviving isn't going to be easy, and zombies aren't the only things to worry about. You must also eat and drink to survive as well as avoid other survivors.This game features an open world and a crafting system, as well as an interesting storyline. If you're a fan of The Walking Dead or other zombie-related media, then this is the game for you! Man_In_The_Purple_Hat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barghaest Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Just watched the video for it and - as a statement to how juvenile I can be - one of the times they opened their inventory I noticed "Nut" right above "Butter" and couldn't help chuckling... Also noticed the "Bowl of Cereal" looked more like a box in the screenshot. Man_In_The_Purple_Hat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connall Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I contacted the developers and they have assured me that they will be removing the icons in the next update, if this turns out to not be the case I would appreciate a heads up. blindcoder, XxZeraphinexX, EreWeGo and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nasKo Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 If it's just off an art pack he got a hold off or he purchased, it's not really the devs fault.

I hope my post didn't cause this to happen but yeah I've seen asset packs for RPG Maker VX Ace with copyrighted images on it a lot of the time and it sucks because the people who use it get shoved into a copyright infringement situation :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was said few sprites were the same as in PZ; sprites that were in the game for years. It was never mentioned that the game is a copy of PZ. It was never mentioned that they stole all the art. It was about very few sprites - created specifically for Project Zomboid - being used in the linked game. Developers of Game X were approached and apparently they've gotten the sprites from some art package for RPG Maker. Developers of Game X will replace sprites in question for the next update.
