Really, a fangame programmer goes too far.. to the point he put RANSOMWARE in his own fangame? No offense, but holy question block-ians - that was a very ridiculous move in the world of fangaming, just because he doesn't want anyone to steal "his own" sprites. His own sprites? Nah. They were just taken from other people and official Sonic games.
I've heard about this issue when YouTube recommended me a video regarding Sonic Gather Battle. I didn't watch it, but many weeks later I starting thinking about the issue so I searched it up on Reddit. Through that search, I also found out about its creepypasta behavior. Thank goodness I was notified about the issue so I didn't have the urge to download it.
Shame that a great fangame is ruined with malicious DRM just to prevent the so-called "stealing from the fangame creator himself". I believe this issue won't carry over to MFGG's community because there might be a Submission Rule saying that no malware should be embedded in fangames, I think.
