Indie Dev - Plagiarism Controversy

Bishie · 28 Apr 2017 at 11:02

I was trawling Reddit this morning and came across an article about an indie developer who lost his share of the profits when his partner removed his Steamworks privileges and cut all contact!

Stuff like this really brings my **** to a boil!

Beginnings
My name is Mladen Bošnjak, I’m an indie game developer and multimedia grad student. This is the story of how my fellow developer Ron “Maxwolf” McDowell stole my Steam game SickBrick from me and is now earning money from it even though I made the majority of the game.

Just LOL if you're a whining asshat on a whining forum called reddit whining about a thing you may or may not have done which then makes other people share your whining on better forums before ending with people then whining about your whining.

Thanks for presenting a lop-sided argument appealing to your preferred outcome, I guess.
