Legal questions

[Ruins of Hell]

This topic isn't a debate field, and it's not here so you can argue about the legality of it.

* Making a game, using other copyrighted material, is illegal no matter whether or not you give credit. The exception is if you receive permission/a license from the author.
* It is possible, however unlikely, that you will receive a cease-and-desist, which means you must shut down your game.
* If you do not shut down your game, the original author has the right to pursue legal action. This does not mean they will or must.

I'll lock this topic now as this is devolving into a flamewar instead of a civil discussion. If you wish, you can make a debate post about the likelihood of receiving a cease-and-desist and being sued.
