    Here is the thread:

    https://twitter.com/dariusguerrero/status/1168507408101994497

    It includes all the evidence that the fraud thief of a developer extracted the source code of the original game, illegally stole assets, and tried to claim the reskinned game is okay and is his. The thread also also includes communications with the thief (where he agreed to take it down in 48 hours) and then the thief changing his mind in the end and keeping it on. We gave all the chances...

    If you love indie games, please retweet this thread. Spread awareness. Support creators.

    You can also report the fake game and the thief as a copycat/impersonator/reskin/spam game on the app stores. And if you know a game has been reskinned, report those too.

    THIS IS A WARNING AGAINST RESKINNERS.

    Fake devs need to know what happens when you reskin another indie dev's game.

    Everyone, thank you for your help. I'm happy to report that a few hours after the twitter thread the copycat reskinned games and its social media pages have been taken down.

    Again, this should serve as warning against anyone wanting to reskin games. Think twice. We could do so much more.
